It is cause we are laughing our A$$es off...

guys don't take it wrong, ban me if you may, but I just can't believe that anyone would be so dumb to sign him. I have been laughing the whole day.

I love phoenix.. I really do, and I wanted the Shaq to deal to work for you guys. Most of the Jazz fans rate Phoenix as their second or third favorite team. But you gotta understand how silly this move is. The suns are starting to sound like the Mavs. In 2 years, the Suns might just be the Memphis Grizzlies of the NBA.

Chuck belongs in Europe and you Suns will soon see that.

I hated Chuck in Utah.

Kerr is (Please Use More Appropriate Word).

Get used to Chuck constantly turning the ball over by traveling.

You know someone sucks when Phili releases him.

You guys are acting like we gave him a max contract. It's basically a free look for PHX for the remainder of the season.

Oh and imo Gira wouldn't be the first guy that Sloan sucked the life out of in this league. It's hard to play well when you have a guy's head up your ass. Sloan's a legend but he isn't for everybody. That is a fact.

In a sucky Philly team with Mo Cheeks as a coach he was buried deep the bench. Although I must say, he hasn't put in a travelling call just yet. I hope I don't jinx it for you guys

Don't bother with those types of Jazz fans....... They blame Giricek for everything, including the Jazz losses to the Bulls in the mid 90's.......

He's actually a very solid player and once he gets a few more games under him, he's going to be a very good addition to your team.......

GG was a decent player with the Magic and his early tenure with the Jazz, its when he was asked to do more then his capability that he faltered. The Suns will only use him as a shooter and occasional defense, which he will do a solid job.

I'm one of the few jazz fans that liked Giri, He would start, score the first 8 in the ball game, lose his man on defense on the next possession and sloan would bench him the entire game for that. Their would a bunch of games where he gets hot, 4 straight jumpshots and then commit a couple turnovers and Sloan would quickly take him out. Sloan hated giricek. In the right system he would be great. Ironically You got bell at the 2, where 3 years ago bell and giricek would flip a coin to see who started. Giricek i think is the better shooter where bell is the better defender.

Giri should mesh well with a team like yours that has a relatively open offense. He just couldn't fit in with the Jazz who run a very strict offensive pattern.

Return to Phoenix Suns
