That's a PRETTY strong denial. You don't deny it that categorically if you think there is any chance you could be made to look a fool by a recording, or something coming to light.

Going to be interesting to see how this goes.

I've been hoping Brian could get back into the biz and this is how it gets done.

[Barkley6]

I don't necessarily disagree with anything sarver has said. Very interesting that James Jones backs him up as well.

I guess we'll have to see what the report says.

I still say that being dumb and rude and even offensive doesn't make you an evil sexist or racist. However, the power of accusation in this day and age may just get Robert removed even without much evidence. Seems like this will get ugly.

It's going to come down to how bad it is, and how good the evidence is.

Dang the responses to the suns announcement on Twitter are abhorrent.

Everyone seems to know exactly what he did and that he's 100% guilty. No matter what facts or evidence are presented here, I think just this tiny leak from Schultz is enough to basically cancel Sarver. I guess we'll see.

Not saying Chriss is a reliable source, but he ain't exactly coming to Sarver's defense either.

No, I hope Bryan does not get involved...maybe you are being sarcastic after all his twitter accounts.

I just enjoy watching the world burn. Brian would be such a disaster I would enjoy it.

I seriously don't think this means anything but "wow"...kind of like any of us.

Agreed, but Chriss was a part of the organization for two years. He definitely has more insight on this than we do.

Yeah, that's the problem. You can be a complete prick to everyone and this stuff could easily be true, that he was disparaging to not only women, or different races, but anyone.

I mean saying to Amare he could easily replace him tomorrow IS disparaging. But he probably would have said it to Casey Jacobsen too.

I like how most of Flex's announcements are self referential about how great he is.

And with Casey Jacobsen he would have at least been right.

Not a single peep about this on ESPN. They're only covering the Philly game and the Simmons crap. As if the Suns aren't playing the Lakers on their network in a few hours lol

Reminded of this. Clearly not someone who makes friends easily. Now is he a racist or sexist? No idea. But when you have this kind of history, it does make the accusations seem more plausible.

Sure, but I think in general these tweets are read into a little too much. I guess I will just say that personally, I don't think it means anything.

I could say that players usually only have good things to say, but I guess you can't really say bad things.

It does seem like players who have left though, at least under McD have said they had no problem ownership, but just with management. That may have been Dragic though, so in this case I guess you could say that doesn't matter.

That's a VERY basic defense of Sarver by Jones. Seems to me like he did the bare minimum to stand up for his boss. No more, no less.

[Mulhollanddrive]

Jones wanna be here.
