Hehe good catch, I fixed it. I’m ok with him staying for his 4th coaching hire but not past that if that one doesn’t work out either.

He acts like he wants to fix Boston Celtics, his former team, rather than Phoenix Suns.
I cant stand that Monroe has no trade value , in this market, when there is plenty of teams that they are looking for a C, with so many injuries. It is like we buyout the value of Bledsoe. There is no make sense.
Here is the list of the "gifts" to Boston, 2 of them i think is from McDonough
-1st round unprotected 2018 pick from Lakers, with the bad trade of Brandon Knight ( not directly to Boston, via 76ers)
-Isiah Thomas. An all star player, who brings Kyrie in Boston. hmmmm
-Monroe free contract.

As for coach , we need one who can train young players into contenders, to inspire them. Not any more lost seasons, with bad moves in this team.

This.
I'm open for Triano to stay as Assistant Coach. And it seems he is just a transitional coach and he accepts that.... But Suns need to get over offense only systems... Even D'Antoni has embraced defensive players in his lineups... Ariza, Capela, Tucker, that guy with a funny name, Chris Paul etc.

At what? Tanking? Both Chriss and Bender have regressed. The Suns margin of defeat under Triano is higher than any other coach in Suns history (and probably nba history too but haven’t looked that one up yet).
Triano would be the cheap choice so I’m sure Sarver is on board.

“I hope so and I am of course. I love this area, I love this team, I love the players here. When you work with them everyday like I do, you start to build that relationship. I want to see them do well, I want to see them excel.
“I came here with that purpose in mind — not necessarily to be the head coach — but now that I’ve had the opportunity, I’d like to see this through and see where we go. There’s not one thing I dislike about what’s happened so far except the losing, but I want to be part of that as we try to fix that moving forward.”

Why are you responding to comments over a month old? Oh, and Bender has played his best ball under Triano. He's obviously not consistent and can be a frustrating player but he has made some development under him.

It was posted last month, I didn’t see it earlier to respond to.
Bender may not have regressed like I said originally only because there was nothing to regress from since he was basically nothing his rookie year. But this year, I don’t think he has made anywhere close to the development the Suns expected from him in his second season when they made him the 3rd overall pick of the draft. His basketball IQ is high and 3pt shot and rim protection is “okay” but that’s about it as of now.

I'd either be on board with giving him a crack, or I think they kick the tyres on Jay Wright from Nova again.
OR...Sarver fires McD and James Jones takes over, where he promptly hires Fizdale - which is my prediction
after Villanova won its second national title (and first since 1985), the Phoenix Suns were very interested in Wright.
