I’d start Melton-Bridges-Jackson-Bender-Holmes tomorrow. They might suck, but those guys at least give effort.

Poor Al McCoy.
If anyone deserves better, it's him.

Something going on there between Bridges and Igor - Don't know if Bridges was upset about the foul or what, but Igor didn't look to pleased.

Amen. As long as you delineate aggression and effort.

Igor stomped off the court with 8 seconds to go and headed to the locker room didn’t even look back

Just checked no score ...34-9 after first quarter. I actually laughed a little. It's just so bad at the moment. I definitely think some kind of knee jerk reaction is coming soon from Sarver, just don't know what

Did he shake the opposing coach's hand?

Maybe he'll quit before he gets fired, lol.

Whatever happened to the idea of bringing up a G League player with a hot hand for a look/tryout while Booker and TJ were unavailable?

Just what, exactly, is James Jones doing, if anything?

He talks to Burns & Gambo every Wednesday and assures them that everything's fine and under control.

And to answer your first question, I guess Sarver is so cheap that he's waiting until the very end of the 14-day deadline to fill the roster spot?

Gambo was ripping him on Wednesday pretty hard. Like, do something already.

These idiots need to learn to box out. How many tip in offensive rebounds are they going to allow before they learn. Basketball 101.

I fully expect Igor to be fired tomorrow.
Along with the rest of the coaching staff, none of whom will be replaced. We’re going to go the rest of the season with nobody on the bench but players and trainers.
:lol:

I feel bad for the guy. He may not be the best coach but our whole organization is so fucked. I don't think any coach besides a few really big names could keep the guys from tuning him out. Especially without the strong backing of a front office.

The losing mentality has fully set in and our reputation around the league is gone. They have already left Igor hung out to dry. No one but first timers and assistants that have no shot of coaching a real team will ever agree to work for us.

Sarver has managed to micro manage us straight into a dumpster fire while pinching pennies.

We should play a game. Guess how long it takes to be down by 20.
If you guessed before the first quarter, you were right. <puts hand up>

Last game: 36-9 after one.

Tonight: 34-9 after one.

Almost an exact repeat. Ugh.
Small improvements every game... By the end of the season, we'll only be down 29-17 after the 1st.

Best seats I ever had and worst suns game ever watched.
This front office is trash. How can they do this to a professional sport? Malpractice. The only PGs on this squad are late rookies. Any mediocre PG will do. No one can get any good shots on this team without a playmaker.
