Nahh it runs much deeper. But true the FO has escalated the situation by sitting on their hands for far too long.

He should be fired for not playing markieff Morris while I have him on my fantasy team

The same stat says that Boban(who is beyond awesome) would be ranked number 1. Unless you want to think so much of Willie Cauley-Stein compared to KAT.

There is a saying by a smart guy... "there are lies, damn lies and statistics."

It could be applied here.


I agree he is no Towns, but I think he is a damn good prospect for a 13th pick...he seems like he has a really high bbiq for being the youngest guy in the league....I mean this is impressive to me.

Was so mad you guys stole him a pick before OKC.

I like Payne but at the same time he would have been so freakin awesome on the wing with KD and Russ, you got a really great player!

Fire him and blow it up. Phoenix has been in need of a proper rebuild for some time now. Come back to Utah, Jeff.
New York said Mitchell wasn't the guy you trade the sink for, then they traded it for Mikal, lol.

He has always overachieved with disfunctional rosters and with tons of problems between the players and the front office - unrelated to him but to the moves made by McDunough & co -
He deserves a better situation and I believe it won't take long until we see him again coaching in the NBA after he leaves the Suns.

Suns are losing 40-16 with 3 mins to go in the 2nd quarter vs the lakers

So no...
I don't think he is getting jobbed... In fact... This is such a shameful display... He should be fired at halftime


16 points at almost halftime
Getting smacked down by the lowly lakers


New low point for phx...
Worse than losing to philly?
USA Celtics in full effect. Amazing chemistry building experience right there for the main core of the team


Proceeds to finish 7th and shames the entire nation!

24 points is our franchise low for a halftime score. Hope we don't tie it

If only Hornacek had 5 or 6 more Point Gaurds they would be killing it right now.

Our rosters is a smoldering dumpster fire but you're right I'm smelling a mutiny. They can't possibly be this bad. I'm gouging my eyes out at this travesty

I wouldn't be half surprised if he ends up getting traded to Dallas soon and goes back to being serviceable immediately. Him and Cuban are somehow cheating the league.

Since moving into the starting line-up, second year player TJ Warren had been averaging 24 ppg / 7 rebounds on 56% shooting. Then Jeff Hornacek decided to move him to the bench, favoring of veterans Tucker and Leuer.

Hornacek makes questionable moves like this all the time, the Suns don't seem to run any type of offense (other than the pick an roll), and are atrocious defensively.

Hornacek doesn't deserve all the blame for how bad the Suns have been, but he definetly deserves a large part of it. Getting blown out by the Lakers, and losing against the 76ers weren't flukes. The Suns are truly playing the worst basketball out of any team in the league right now.

I refuse to watch another ingle game with Horny at the helm. Benching Warren in favor of veteran role player, can't draw up a simple inbound play a nd headscratching rotations

Haha always overachieved? He has been the coach 3 years, and has massively underachieved in years 2 and 3. You could make a strong case that Hornacek is the worst coach in the NBA this year. Some will say Byron Scott, but last night they went head to head and you saw the result. The Suns are a trainwreck and Hornacek is the conductor of the train.

He is terrible. No coach has done worse than him this year.
