Kerr took over a terrible position. He took over a team that was past it's prime with money issues. He pulled off a mega-deal to win a title and it didn't happen. What the hell can he do with Sarver over him anyway. There should be moves made this season. Let's hope they imprve this team's future rather than this year.

I don't think he's a terrible GM but perhaps took on the job a bit too soon without enough experience in the FO.

The KT trade was pretty much the first move he made so he did make a bad impression on most Suns fans. But the KT trade wasn't a basketball move but a financial move directed by Sarver. I can't say he's a terrible GM since it does seem he has plans for the future and has put together a team that is in the process of rebuilding yet surprisingly competitive, so there's no much I can complain at this moment.

The only good move he made was trading Doris but thinking about it, was it really a good move? The Suns are probably going to overpay an unathletic role player, get nothing for J-Rich by either letting him walk or trading him for scraps and selling that second rounder or drafting a bust. Outside of that all his moves have been horrible, the Suns need new scouts/GM's and whatever otherwise it's sad to think what this team will look like 5 years from now...

Good read

Kerr is probably a 5.5 out of 10 on the GM scale regardless

I'm just waiting for him to make that amazing one-sided deal in favor of the Suns.
