How do you know they didn't?

He's still employed, and they fired two assistants instead.


Doesn't mean the Suns didn't **** on Hornacek.

Why do we run like millions of pick and rolls every game? I get that it's the basic pillar of most offenses, but I feel like it's excessive with us. Is Jeff hallucinating? Does he think we have Stockton and Malone on the team?

It's a nice game to get me excited to go back to work after a week and a half off.

I don't know if you have played basketball, but when you hate or don't like your coach you play on slow motion all the time and it's enough to be on a high disadvantage . I have not played professional, of course, but I play enough to see that if the players want the coach out he willl be out.

At the end of the day is like on another work...if you don't like your boss you are going to put the minimum effort (without risking your own position).

It is easy to fire one man than fire 15 men....and easier when his name is not Popovich.

I don't buy that at all. You are saying all 15 players will intentionally put up bad numbers for an entire year, damage their own career stats (and future contracts) because they hate Hornacek so bad? That is silly. They had a chance just last week to throw him under the bus when the FO was asking for player input into the teams problems and the players didn't do it. How come the players didn't dump on Hornacek when they had the chance?

No, what I wanted to say it's that is easier for McDonough or Sarver to fire Hornacek than the change of the complete roster (15 players).

I think that Hornacek is a favourite for some of our players like Booker, for example, because he is giving him a great opportunity to play, but the majority of the roster don't respect him or want him enough.
