Openly yelling at Hornacek was the beginning of the end. It was similar, although not as bad as Horry throwing a towel in the face of then coach Ainge. The brothers Awful got what they deserved. The Suns gave them a rare opportunity and they blew it, plain and simple.

One other thought. They took F.O.E. too far.

I'm just glad the org had the guts to do this. It shows that they won't let players push the coach around and that they won't put up with knuckleheads. We can't have that on our team. I really didn't want to watch another season with a bunch of idiots misbehaving like last year, and we're taking steps to make sure that doesn't happen.

Mori, if that's the point they wanted to make then it should have happened the next day. Now it looks a bit cowardly, like using the potential LMA signing as a smoke screen. Not that I disagree. It's just not sending the message you'd hope.

Do I wish there would have been immediate consequences? Yes. However, I'm still glad they took care of the matter.

He should have been suspended IMO.

I wonder if we benefited with the twins on the court if the opposing guard got confused and guarded the wrong players strengths/weaknesses ? Like did they ever pretend to be each other ? Was there a game where Marcus played like Keiff' and vice versa?
Imagine how playing against them totally mind fucked a player like Chris Kaman

I appreciated being confused in NBA2K in substitutions with my Suns. You are telling me a NBA game couldn't put Mark.Morris and Marc.Morris in the game? They sure did for Ho.Grant and Ha.Grant. Good riddance sir ( I call him "sir" cause I fear for my safety)!

I appreciated his talent, but not his demeanor. This is the really the entertainment business. It is important that players play good, but being likable is important too. The twins wore out their welcome in Phoenix. They have none to blame, but themselves.
Right before the exciting KJ etc. era we had the drug scandal low point. This Suns team is at that low point too. On a positive note, things can only look up from here right?...

With the young talent on the team that may or may not develop, I have a hard time seeing how the Suns could fall further from this point onwards.

I don't think so. Why act immediately just to make a point, if it hurts the team in the process. They took their time, sat down at the end of the seaons and considered their options, looked at what was in front of them in free agency, and made an informed decision. Reactionary decisions are rarely good ones.

Knight and Bledsoe seem genuinely interested in playing together. Unlike others, I think Hornacek is an excellent coach for teaching young players who genuinely want to learn. I think Len is ready to break out. I am usually fairly skeptical about one player "mentoring" another, but Tyson Chandler's example on defense should be a huge help.
All this youth and energy, its an optimistic time for me.

I agree.
