That's why we are so frustrated and we are talking about big failure with a team that's 27-30. In the league everyone agree that Suns and Sixers are the biggest negative surprises this season.


The Sixers are at least fun to watch tbh, probably not so much for their fans but that team is pure comedy.

I was watching their last game against the dog food Nets team the other night, Drummond got rejected by someone (I honestly don't know half the names on that Nets team) and taunted and got a technical. Wut? :lol: They were down big but made a fake comeback and they were hyped! Dudes celebrating a fake comeback against a tanking team without their two best player and DLo and Cam Thomas :lol: Podcast P was so hype he gave a bucket to a G-leaguer and then came down and bricked the next two shots :lol: And they lose anyway on a buzzer beating tip-in by Claxton :lol:

Oh btw Embiid was benched in the 4th, more drama :lol:


Sixers are a bigger mess than us. Trust the process I hear. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Bud certainly does not appear to have any control of our current locker room. We had to ship out our starting center due to him and the coach not getting along. Well, I guess he gets along with our current roster since they are playing so well.

I agree that James Jones should be the first one out the door and should have no say so on who will be our coach next year.

Bud would be the 2nd one out the door. I do not know who we would get to replace him or who would want this job. Of course, money talks. As long as James Jones is not involved in the decision I will ride with it.

Damn we are going to suck for many years, again.


Buds a bad fit for Suns. Vogel say what you like about him, he comes with a clear coaching philosophy, his teams play big, rebound and play D.

Bud on the other hand, what's his philosophy? His teams are generally free flowing and shoot a bunch of 3, but tend to fold in the playoffs barring that one miracle run when Giannis went beast mode and injuries hit other contenders. That's just a terrible fit for a team like the Suns who naturally have poor defensive personnel and a bunch of iso artists on offense.

So you get the results you expect. The Defense is absolutely horrible and the offense is still lukewarm since the big 3 are not good passers/playmakers.

Haven't we discussed extensively how every Suns' coach was a bad fit? It's not about the coach, much more about how the team is built, imo.
