Slip up in Alvin Gentry's Twitter?

@THE_REAL_SHAQ that could have been us. I still feel so bad for u. Thanks for all u did for me.



Poor sentence structure, or a sign that the FO has already decided Shaq's tenure here is at its end?

With the Shaq for Chandler talk going on, I wouldn't be surprised if management and Shaq decided together that they would move him.

May be looking into it too much. He is not helping Alvin now since they are not playing, but helped then. He is just acknowledging this season is all I believe. Who knows, haha.

I think Alvin just feels bad for Shaq because he missed his first playoffs since his rookie year and he's just saying thanks for being a good player under Alvin.

I actually don't think Shaq wants to go to NOH. There's no reason for him to leave here unless he's going to Dallas. He kinda called out Sarver for being cheap, NOH owner isn't any better.

I don't think Shaq personally wants to go to NO either, that's one of the smallest pro-sports market today. Interesting twitter comment though.

Shaq went to college in Louisiana so I'm sure he wouldn't mind going back. Is Gentry trying to be the coolest coach around though or something by using twitter and typing out internet slang? He reminds me of those moms who buy beer for their teenagers when they throw parties. If he wants to prove he's cool do so by bringing the Suns a championship...

Shaq said he wants to stay in Phoenix on his Twitter account and he praised Kerr just a few days ago saying that Kerr has treated him better than any other GM he has ever been around.

Plus, Shaq likes Gentry.

I think Shaq is staying in Phoenix. He seems happy and Kerr said he loves having him on the team.

You are one bitter dude!!!!!!!! Gentry is a genuine coach that answers questions honestly, what do you want. Why are you a Suns fan when you hate about every player besides Matt Barnes????

On the contrary, I think that Gentry making himself so accessible to fans is fantastic.

Return to Phoenix Suns
