I don't mind getting another high pick next draft..

But this is embarrassing.


People I know are saying Suns are an NBL level team because only team they can look good against is the Brisbane Bullets... Damn, not even compared to a Euro or China team.



Before I didn't mind... But this is seriously embarrasing.

Yeah, it's tough. I mean it felt like a joke again. Any time we play a real team it doesn't even look like we belong in the league.

We're starting to build a nice losing culture. Well done Earl.

It’s ironic, but so many on this board wanted just that, for the possibility of high draft picks. Well here it is folks, a losing culture which will take a while to get out of this.

Done defending Watson, time for him to go. This team has a lot of issues, but he's the biggest one. Our pick and roll defense is probably the worst scheme I've ever seen, it turns into a 2 on 1 or open shot for the big man every single time because we just sink to the paint and stand there. Pace is fun and all, but the number of possessions where we make zero passes and take a quick bull shot is absurd. Bledsoe is checked out, Booker looks pissed/demoralized, and we're putting all of our project draft picks in the hands of a guy that led us to the worst point different through the first 3 games in league history. Find someone that knows that the hell theyre doing, spend some damn money on a real coach and stop looking for the cheapest "up and coming" guy available.

Durant was on a 20 win team, Wiggins was on a 16 win team, Embiid was on a 10 win team.

Franchises turn around by acquiring elite talent, our franchise future will be won or lost at the draft table, what happens on court or the coaches office this season is a minor factor.

What I don't get is, this is pretty much the same team as last season and we're playing far worse than we did last year. I'm not saying we should have won all of these games, but we didn't compete in 2 of the 3.

I really believe something is amiss behind the scenes that fans don't know about. There's something seriously wrong in the locker room. Maybe Watson lost their ear, maybe the players aren't getting along, or maybe they are truly just too young, but it has to be identified.

It's time to get an established coach to right the ship and get the culture back on track.
I don't know how he did with the W's but would Marc Jackson be a guy that would make sense?

Taking an exam 6 months after you studied is much harder.

I don't think Watson had anything new to teach in the off-season.

Suns does not play any form systematic defense good enough for an NBA team. Relying on individual effort to hopefully works is a terrible move.


Need a hard nosed coach who will make men out of these players... Watson's probably trying to schedule a team yoga session as we speak.
