No big deal, would hope he has a say. The team should be built around him at this point.

I would involve Devin in those decisions, too. He's a natural networker and loves responsibility. He might be a great GM when he retires.
I don't mind Booker being involved, but I hate that Sarver is still a key decision maker.McD wrote:it comes down to what Robert and I decide

Its hard watching him do so well this year, because he is finally tapping the potential we could see when he was drafted, and there is a good chance he is gone next season.Hermen wrote:Fun fact: the Suns are 8-1 when Len plays at least 25 minutes.

**This is what they had to say about our December loss to the Raptors in which Booker inured himself.**Jan. 3: Phoenix at Denver | MahScore: 9
This game registers as a red alert for the Suns, who will face plenty of not-very-fun obstacles here. First, this marks their third game in four days and the second of a back-to-back set. And, even worse, it's the second of a back-to-back set that requires travel to elevation-drunk Denver, which veteran coaches will tell you is the most brutal schedule/fatigue scenario in the NBA. So after hosting the Hawks on Jan. 2, the Suns will leave Phoenix that same night and head for Denver and get in late, such is the distance from Denver International Airport and the city's downtown. Oh, and the Nuggets will enter this game with an absurd three-day rest advantage. Three days!

How's this for a brutal stretch? The Suns were tasked with heading north of the border to cap off an 11-day, season-long six-game trip, the second of a back-to-back set after playing in Philadelphia the night before, and their third game in four days. After beating the 76ers in Philadelphia on Monday, the Suns headed out that same night and didn't arrive at their downtown Toronto hotel until 1 a.m. local time, according to the Arizona Republic. Meanwhile, the Raptors entered the game with a massive three-day rest advantage. As expected, the Suns were down big early, trailing by 13 in the first quarter and by 19 entering the fourth. Suns star Devin Booker, who scored a season-high 46 points in the win at Philadelphia, missed his first seven shots against the Raptors, finishing 4 of 15 from the field. More important, Booker, in his 78th minute of floor time over a 26-hour period, had to be carried off the court after suffering a noncontact groin injury late in the fourth quarter.
It marked the third time since Nov. 10 that the Suns have played a three-games-in-four-days stretch.
"We haven't handled it well up to this point," coach Jay Triano said, according to the Republic. "It's a big test for us, getting in late, them having rest, us having three games in four nights. How are you going to respond? How are you going to get out there physically and mentally and fight through it?"
