Ryan didn't follow the complete rebuild route like he should've. He got duped into last years success and stopped short.

We have too many guys who don't understand the game of basketball and routinely make the wrong play, usually by hogging the ball or chucking bad shots. It's not a winning formula. I think it could be coached back out of them, but I don't know if Hornacek is the kind of guy to do so.
Problem is they are reinforcing each other, last year we only had to deal with Gerald, with Tucker, Bledsoe and the Morrii playing under control, but it seems like those contracts has gotten into their heads, you add up Thomas, and boom, you end up in a overtime with the Morri, Tucker, Thomas and Bledsoe on the floor... What could go wrong?

THIS.
He confused overachieving with development, then he got stuck chasing rainbows with Lebron's "interest" in the Suns.

The way we're falling apart yet barely losing to all the best teams... maybe all we need is a catalyst that sets us straight mentally. IDK. A leader.
How good would this team be if one of those 3 PG's was Jason Kidd?

he did follow his rebuild plan. he kept the picks and refused to give 1 first rounder + okafor's contract for gasol, and drafted the rookies who horny refused to play to this day. dont blame mcdo if the coach wants to win with the roster he constructed.

To be honest I think he's a bit old to be a real difference maker

I might not be against trading Bledsoe for Amare if we can get some other assets in addition.

the suns are the ones which should be giving away assets to make it work contract-wise. and NY doesnt have any assets left. the suns do with rookies that are rotting away at the bench.

Gold star for that quote. You build assets and then sell high. Management is collecting assets, but hasn't flipped them for anything yet, save possible the Wright trade. And that's a stretch.

What about this?
Pacers get: Isaiah Thomas and Miles Plumlee.
Suns get: David West.

The good thing is no-one's over reacting to a double-overtime loss on the road to a very good team.
