Re: Igor Kokoskov Progress Report
If I had a time machine, one of my first actions would be to go to the past and tell Jerry that Sarver is a fucking dickwad and he'll regret selling the team to him.
Send me a PM if you're interested in joining the phx-suns.net fantasy basketball league.

You know Jerry regrets it.

He cashed out 401,000,000.00. He doesn't regret that.
Re: Igor Kokoskov Progress Report
sarver cant retain good personnel. colangelos gone. kerr, griff gone. only crap willing to stay and do his bidding (mcdo and jj)
Re: Igor Kokoskov Progress Report
I really hope the fans continue to chant, "Sarver Sucks" at every home game. I want him to know how much the fan base hates his guts.
Re: Igor Kokoskov Progress Report
Yup. He's kicking himself. Plus, he's got to be really depressed about what has happened to his Suns since.

But he didn't want to spend his time doing it in his 70s. He said he wanted to get his investment out before he died. He is 79 now. All franchises are growing like crazy, but if you can't use the money to enjoy your life, what is the point?

It's worth 1B now, almost 15 years after he sold for a then record amount. In the meantime he got to manage team USA and even 'saved' the 76rs from Sam 'Adolf' Hinkie. I don't think he is regreting selling, just the 'customer' he sold to.

Re: Igor Kokoskov Progress Report
He basically did it because he had a cancer scare and started thinking about the tax implications for his family. I seem to recall him admit as much.
Steve Kerr's the one we should blame for introducing him to Sarver.

Re: Igor Kokoskov Progress Report
Ironically, it was the Suns who were left with a cancer as an owner.
