I get that it's a bad look, but you seriously can't keep Budenholzer after this season.

I donβt think weβve seen a guy torpedo a companys value like this since musk and twitter. Depressing.

KD, Beal, Vogel, Bud...now some fans and media want Bob Myers to fix things. Maybe going after the big name isn't always the best strategy? "Past performance is not indicative of future results" (except maybe in Beal's case).

Look, sometimes teams are just a tough matchup for us. This year it's the Pelicans, Hornets, Blazers, Raptors...but ya know, ya gotta give those teams credit. It's a tough league and there are things we can do better.

I was of the opinion that they can't fire Bud because that would be like the 3rd time in 3 years and any new coach would not trust the ownership. But I now think that everyone can see that even with the team we have that we should be doing much better and understand he needs to go. Missing even the play-in with Booker and Durant? Unacceptable! I actually think most people will be surprised if he isn't fired. We need a new coach that would be willing to take this team on as a personal challenge and whip the players into shape. Someone with real balls. Someone like a Daly, Jackson or Riley. I know those are few and far between and no one like that is likely available any time soon. I don't follow college ball much but maybe they should start looking at those ranks to see who might be the next coaching badass.

I think the job would still be desirable because at the very least you know you get a lot of money for 1 season

So true. Between what Vogel got and Bud will likely get and especially what Monty got in Detroit.

I honestly think you ask LA what it would take to talk to Ty Lue, if the price is too high, I think you give Sam Cassell a call. Maybe Jason Terry? I think this group needs a former player to coach them, especially if we're keeping KD (which I would honestly like to do).

The best part of the game was Dunn. He was driving to the hoop (the only Sun to do so) which always resulted in good things. His block (even though shown to be goal tending) was electric. Zion also got away with offensive interference when he grabbed and shook the rim before the ball went through.
