I'm surprised. I guess I just never hear about this kind of stuff. I always believed his reputation about being a playboy.
Could be one of those scenarios where he partied so much it slid into experimentation?

He was definitely a playboy. Whether which side doesn’t matter because it cost him a lot of money in his divorce.

It’s just rumors though. If you believe everything you hear you’d think J-Rich banged Nash’s wife and had a kid with her causing a divorce.

'You mean Dan's little brother, Jeff Majerle, who had a tryout with the Suns? For a basketball player, he was a good restaurant manager. :)

I've told this story before. 'Back in the '80's, I brought my young son to a Suns game and we were there very early, when Dan was the only one on the court shooting.

I motioned him over to give my son an autograph and he was heading over when he saw two girls sitting behind the basket and make a beeline for them.

I called out, "Dan" so loud, you could probably hear it in Mesa. And he changed direction and came over. That is the reason I called Dan immature when he wanted to be considered for Head Coach.

Is there anything to back up that you posted he's gay?

Even his alleged under-aged victim(s) were of the opposite sex. I think you think it's clever and it rhymes. It isn't clever.

Re-registering after a ban is a perma-bannable offense though, so I doubt we'll get any more responses regarding all of this.

Looks like having the number one pick and the news about Booker is bringing on some trolls. It's weird being a team that is getting some actual attention.

I was reading comments after twitter news about Booker signing the extension. Some people really want to drag his game down. So we best be prepared for trolls as you point out.

That's the social media world we live in now. People nitpick absolutely everything. "So what Booker scored 70 points, they lost the game, maybe if he passed more they would have won". Stuff like that gets said quite frequently in places like twitter and youtube. So quick to find a way tear apart a young players accomplishments like they don't mean anything at all.

It's the same for making sweeping assumptions after a couple summer league games. Apparently Young is a bust and JJJ is a future hall of famer based on these two summer league games they have played.

I agree with all you say about all social media where everyone thinks they are right.

Young should be a very good player. I do think Jaren Jackson Jr. will be among the best two players in the draft and I thought this right after McDonough worked him out.

What gets me is that people seem to forget that Booker is 21 years old. Think about how good he is right now, and then consider that he probably isn't gonna reach his full potential for another 6-7 years. How anyone can argue against a max extension for this guy is beyond me.

For a lot of players he would just be leaving college or hoping to enter the NBA.

One of my very good friends back in college always claimed she regularly 'hooked up' with KJ in the 90s when she was in HS...not verifiable, but she was pretty adamant and her storie has remained the same all this time. Still, KJ is one of my all time favorite Suns.

There was a real sports that showed he continued his actions as mayor with younger girls. Here is a girl police statement on KJ

I think the Suns have been in complete shambles for quite sometime now. A ring would have made that time so much better for me.

I echo this comment.

Always heard the rumors about KJ when I was a kid, never really wanted to believe them and kindof turned a blind eye for a while. When it happened again in Sacramento I felt sick....

Which is exactly why the #Metoo movement is happening.

I third that emotion!

The other teams I root for actively have championships -- the Mercury with three and the D-backs with one.

It feels good to know that they have reached the promised land. It seems to expect their current teams to get back ("Get back, Loretta", from Tucson, Arizona. :) )

And finally, in the coming seasons, the Suns, after 50 seasons without.

It's time BC. There is still a tough road ahead though.
