Horrible team, horrible organization, horrible, horrible, horrible.

I'm glad you found something good out of it.

Len had a decent box score line as a PF.

I'm glad I turned it off in the 2nd quarter.

Aside from shooting like 30% as a 7 footer

This was the game that showed me that Earl is not ready to be a head coach. I think he'll get there one day and I like his disposition, but he needs some more seasoning under a strong Xs and Os guy.

The "Len at PF" experiment is going to be unfairly judged because the rest of the starting lineup is trash. You can't play Len at PF if 3/4 of the remaining starting lineup is TC/PJT/RP and a 19 year old kid. There's not one offensive creator in that group. It's a trash lineup and it was clear it was completely outmatched after two minutes tonight, yet no adjustment from Watson until there were like two minutes left in the quarter. Same in the 3rd quarter. And what the hell was he doing closing with TC, Price and PJ when we're down 40? Teaching them a lesson? I get that this is a crap team, but his rotations and lack of adjustments show he's not ready.

Anyway, Len's not a PF. He's a center. I support this project only because it gives him maximum minutes and touches. But if Watson is trying to win games, he'll start Len and Leuer in the frontcourt and go with TC and Mirza off the bench. Also, less Ronnie Price. Much less. And more Jenkins.

This team really could use Brandon Knight. He's not gonna make us any good, but he'd allow Booker, Goodwin, and Len to develop without as much pressure. Right now we're asking too much of those guys. Do we know if he's coming back? Is this a real injury or is it a tanking injury?

Unfortunately the only player that has any ability to score points consistently is Teletovic, and the only way to get him in the starting lineup with Len is to bring Chandler off the bench and it doesn't look like the Suns are willing to try that.

And don't get me started on the offensive millstone that is P.J. Tucker.....

Ronnie Price 0-7 from deep. Keep shooting them young grasshopper

Didn't think this teams defense could get any worse but it did. Four quarters of layup lines. How did Charlotte only score 126? Did they think the open path to the hoop was a trap?

The Suns are giving up 113.9 points a game in 11 games under Watson (117.8 over the last 8 games)

The worst team in the league for the entire season is Sacramento at 109.6

You need a real coach. Watson ain't it. If we go into next season with him as coach, I'm not even going to bother.

I hate these kind of fan ultimatums, but I''m sadly with you. If we don't get a top 2 pick and go into next season with Watson as coach then I'm out. No league pass. No support from me, period.

The more I think about Sarver's open letter the more I feel like it was a pointless gesture. What did it accomplish, really? Just a platitude at this point since we've heard it all before. I don't think it's a coincidence that the letter went out while they are trying to get people to renew their season tickets.

That's all it was. A ploy to get people to renew. He didn't say anything in that letter that wasn't common knowledge. He didn't talk about all the front office people and former staff that he ran out of town that were a pillar of the organization (Majerle, Welts, etc.) He's just going to continue to do dumb shit because he's the boss and he doesn't take orders from anyone. But I guess I just wouldn't understand because I'm such a millennial.

Dang, with this loss, it is "likely" that the Suns will miss the playoffs.

I'll watch again next year, because I literally care 0% about every other team in the NBA.

I scoreboard watch games that impact our standings. Lakers vs Nets was great since it was a win win regardless of the outcome.
If you have a dumpster fire like our season has been, the best thing you can do is keep sending guys to grab another gas can so the fire won't go out.

Both of your ultimatums suck. Sorry, there's no getting out. You are stuck with the rest of us. Nice try though.

Sorry, guys. You're going to watch the Suns whether you want to or not.

Pay heed to Cap's picture above. I will hunt you down. If not Clockwork Orange style, at the very least, we will be watching Suns games King of Comedy style.
