Why do we like Mudiay?


Yeah I would so much rather have Brogdon.


Agreed! Maybe using Denver to push these other teams. I want a big blow up trade and I think Milwaukee can move Chandler and Chandler but Brogdan seems like a good young PG for Booker.


This doesn't mean we like Mudiay. Denver may have called us up and said "how about Mudiay and ..........................." and then told some reporter they had discussions with the Suns and Mudiay. The Suns may have said "hell no" for all we know.

His name has just been brought up in EVERY Bledsoe trade talk since the dude came in the league.

It's partially for salary filler and to bring in depth at PG. He'd likely be third string right now. But he's another non shooter which doesn't help what we need.

Who's first string in that scenario? Ulis? Mike James?

I don't know. They'd have to battle. Try them both out. We've got plenty of time.

And Sarver probably is guilty too. What a crazy strategy. 2 weeks for a coach??
Terrible franchise at the moment. 7 years falling.

2 weeks for what?
To show improvement in court or win?
I think it's the former.
GM, Vice President (Jones) and owner probably wanted to see Watson to show coaching credential by changing the way the Suns play.
Because all season last season was awful chaos.


Gambo went on the air and said that what Watson said was not true. Watson made that up to try and create an us vs. them mentality with "them" being the front office. When McDonough found out about it he was livid and fired Watson.

He's probably not used to things not just being handed to him and everyone bending to what he wants. And btw, next year will be like the... fifth? year straight of disgruntled players when he or his replacement has to deal with Knight's contract.

No problems with Bled from me. He was awesome, tried to make it work with this garbo team for years despite constantly being in trade rumors and being overshadowed by Booker by fans/media. Hope he lands on a winning team.


So everyone else is at fault for how Bledsoe is acting now.. including the fans? Is he the only one who's not to blame?

Didn't McD rip Dragic publicly after Dragic demanding out? I wanna know if he's gonna do the same damn thing for Bledsoe now too.

Happy for Jay. I for one think he will be a nice fit for the season. Was never a fan of Watson.

Like I said before, it wasn't a pistol, it was a squirt gun. He was trying to cool the fan down.

Yep. Acted like a random lame fan instead of a GM. IIRC he was also saying something like "And we still got out best player... Markieff Morris!"

Wow, another ****
The Gambo radio interview was pretty scary. After that the McD tidbits with Bled at a hairsalon... Laughingstock of the league. :(
I really wouldn't be surprised with a couple of other things like this if this situation drags out long enough.

How is that McD has managed to piss off so many players here durung his time as GM?

At which point does it become his fault also??

Did you know the All Pissed Off Team for the Suns is actually a better team than the actual Suns team now?

We're going down in flames but at least it's entertaining. lol

I hope they don't get rid of Dudley either.
