Rookie head coach. I'm not going to jump down his throat. Hopefully, he learns in time. Adjustments as well as the guts to play the best tools for the job even if they are rookies.

They figured out that Ott always calls the "handlebars" play.

Pffttt and some people wanna trade him!
I’d love for him to stay here forever but I know this is a business and not to get too attached. Trading him has nothing really to do with disliking him or wanting him gone. It’s a matter of getting the team structured to compete for years to come and him being the biggest asset we have to do that. We can be fiscally responsible and grow a team. Last year impressed me with how well we were able to acquire talent and develop it…. Oso, Fleming and CG especially; heck even malauch is showing promise. If those players were outperforming because of booker elevating them, I’d be far more seeing a reason to keep him but he’s not Nash.
It will be interesting to see what happens. Does he ever get moved or is he a Sun for life? If I had to bet and from what I've seen so far and with his giant contract, I'd lean to him being our Steph Curry (but unfortunately, most likely barring a miracle without a championship).

My guess is:

Larry Fitzgerald:Cardinals::Devin Booker:Suns
Great, lets be the cards! Said no one ever....

What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Just reminds me that the Suns have exactly one playoff series win since that game.

I've never seen someone fall off a cliff faster than CP did after that game.

Jim Jackson was another.

He did have some success with the Spurs I thought.

He had moments with us too afterwards, but not sure we ever saw the CP3 that could take over a game again after that 14/14 game

Well, I really appreciated what he did for the Suns in the twilight of his career. Got Book to the Finals. Made Ayton look like a real NBA player.
