McDonough in 15 minutes on KTAR. He usually speaks on Wednesday during Burns & Gambo so this is a different time. 8:45 local AZ time.

Now this is an accurate analysis of what's been going on with the Suns the last three years. Worth the 13mins.

he ALMOST let it slip that Morris staying on the roster was Sarver's call and he was against it.

Wish I could. I got a phone call 30 seconds into the interview. Didn't even hear it. :( I'll post the podcast link when it's up. Usually it doesn't take too long for them to make it available.

same thing here. Waiting on a call, but then people didn't join... frustrating.

Is it my imagination, or has Hornacek aged visibly in the last two years?

Lol yes he did. Or rather you could infer that's what he was saying but then he backtracked when they pointedly asked him.

It'd be typical of Sarver the banker to not take pennies on the dollar for Markieff while also thinking he got a steal with the contract and not wanting to give that up. Again, penny-wise and pound foolish.

"Jeff is a tremendous person," McDonough told hosts Doug Franz and Ron Wolfley. "I think that's part of what makes this so hard. We wanted to give him every opportunity to be successful, keeping in mind that we won 48 games our first year and were the most-improved team in the league.
Bullshit! No coach could be successful with all the changes you gave him.
"We need to create a culture where we are developing our young players, where guys come in and play hard and play the right way and are learning good habits," McDonough said.
This part I agree with.

Woo.
Does this mean this move was made to motivate Markieff into raising his play and trade value?
