McD talking about the Bridges trade. Think he’s probably alluding to SGA here as well.
I didn't think it was possible to respect McD less after his tenure here, but he's such a gossipy little bitch.

Not interested in anything he says. Comes out of the woodwork when the team starts winning.

I find McDo's Twitter and new social media presence awkward. He talks often about the Suns, both praising our current players and criticizing our owner. It's like having your ex still talking about you to all your friends. The relationship is over! Move on.

To his credit, he’s had that podcast since March I think. And of course he’s gonna talk about the suns, everyone is talking about us now and he has a pretty big connection.

Not saying you have to be interested in anything he says...he clearly is trying to toot his own horn on his hits...haven’t seen him mention any of his many shortcomings yet.

The McDonough tenure was pretty awful. I think a lot about when I posted that article and said "Hey, we should look at this guy!" I don't think anyone should really care what he says in regards to the Suns.
Go Suns!

That's what I mean...I know he's been on Sirius and been out there, but it feels like he's been popping up more and more now that we're on the rise and getting more media exposure. He just did more harm than good and clearly has no idea how to run a team or FO.

I remember that! I remember being excited about him.

Teams have not been clamoring to hire him.

Tomorrow holds so much weight for this team (and my mental health).
I just don’t want to see Doncic get 15 FTAs from bullshit calls in a classic Doncic/Harden way and destroy us.

If we win and still miss out on the play-in, then I’ll be at peace.

I truly do not enjoy watching Luka play, the same way I can’t handle Harden. I’m glad he’s not on the Suns, but that doesn’t mean I’m happy we picked who we picked. I’m extremely frustrated with The Big P.
Booker gets a lot of the same calls.

How crazy would it be for use to win, Blazers and Grizz lose, and Spurs win today. That would be fun.

Sorry I meant that I don’t see Booker getting the same touch foul calls as Doncic.

Yeah, Doncic gets fouls when he's not touched. Tough to compete with that.

I watched the last game on a half hour delay with my brother in law who is staying with us. Half way through the fourth quarter he thought it would be funny to ask Siri the score of the game out loud twice. So NOT cool. I will be watching todays game alone locked in my bedroom.

Bucks playing like trash. Bledsoe screwing us over without even being on the team. So glad he's gone.

Great job of quote that says absolutely nothing. The cynical side to me trying to read between the lines thinks it just comes down to Sarver's bank balance and not on-court performance.
