I believe Sarver is placating these people who care nothing about winning titles; they only go to the games because they have nothing better to do (shuffleboard anyone?), and as long as they can watch Nash and good ole (non-threatening...i.e tatoos) black guys like Hill, Frye, Dudley etc then they are okay with the current state of the Suns. I say the latter, because Sarver had no problems letting the brothas go without public backlash.....but, when it comes to Nash...oh hell no, we can't do that, because "the fans will not go to games".
On Realgm, there isn't one person here who is afraid of letting Nash go. I am assuming most of the guys here are not Old Conservatives (that is really the issue, not color) besides Frank

Laker fans would never put up with what Sarver has done and continue to do, because their fans are emotionally invested in the Lakers. The Lakers have one yearly goal, and if management does not appear to be headed toward that goal, then the fans go apechit!! Radio and TV is flooded with vociferous phone calls and protest; here, it is just Oh...Ho....Hum.
Until we can get these OLD FARTS to actually care about winning and not just being entertained, we will continue to fight to go .500 and sign people like REDD?!!! I mean are the Suns and Gentry in denial?!! Are they trying to mess up our draft position and (Please Use More Appropriate Word) the growth of Morris and Lopez?! For what? To miss the playoffs and continue to draft 13-15?!
I know I am stereotyping, but I cannot understand our situation in any other way, doesn't make sense! I am pissed about the AZcentral article "not a panic move", as if we were expecting to do something. Are these guys in denial.....FRICK!!!
Lets suck like 03-04 and BAM!
Am I tripp'n?
