Bud helped the Bucks win their first championship in 50 years since they were a fledgling franchise with a young Lew Alcindor. It would be cool if he could help the Suns get their first ever.

Did we interview Bud last year when we hired Vogel?

No, there was talk about him but Gambo quickly shot down the Suns having any interest.

It's obvious that they don't think they can be trusted to make a good pick in the draft. They've decided to ridicule the draft, including getting the local media types to back that theory that the draft is a complete crap shoot, and they've punted on the whole process. What’s insane is that we alre...

It’s the same exact situation as last summer. Do we hire Budenholzer (the coach with championship experience) or Billups (the coach that Durant and Booker want)? We saw how not hiring the players’ choice went this last season. But will giving them what they want result in success? A lot of the folk...

Hmm. Isiah Thomas here we come?

That tweet is false. Sarver was suspended when Jones was promoted. It was, at least officially, Sam Garvin that promoted him to President of Basketball Ops.

I just found out that Budenholzer was fired right after his brother died in a car crash during the Bucks’ series loss. That is crazy, how did I not hear about this? First I've heard of this as well. https://nypost.com/2023/04/30/mike-budenholzers-brother-died-in-car-accident-during-bucks-series/

I'm at the point where if the ego twins rebel against Bud they've gotta go. KD and Booker are going through coaches at an insane pace and at some point it's not the coach. Bill Simmons (love him or hate him) pointed out that Lebron and KD's teams have now gone through 12 head coaches since 2018 or ...

I've never been a fan of letting your players dictate your coaching hire. You hire the best coach for your franchise, those player won't be around forever. True, but the fact that it looks more and more like KD and Booker sabotaged the season due to a hire they didn’t like makes me think we either ...

For a point guard, he sure doesn’t seem to value them much.

PLAY RANDOM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MLEIreIjVI I remember that and how he seemed so lackadaisical and like he didn’t even care as they fell to 0-2 in the series, and everyone called him the worst coach in Finals history. But perhaps the rest of the series proved us all wrong. He was better...
