The biggest mystery to me is not why the Suns' core has no fire or pride, because I don't find that mysterious. Weak personalities, it's as simple as that.

Actually, the biggest mystery to me is something simpler: why Monte Morris obviously fell out of favor. It's great that Collin Gillespie played well, but I have no idea why he played ahead of Morris. Is Morris just bad, like Tyus Jones often is, and I don't realize it?

Morris has been hurt. A back issue.

Yeah, I find it really odd why Monte has basically disappeared from the rotation. I know he was hurt for a few games, but he's no longer on the injury report AFAIK. I feel like he gives us 95% of the offense Tyus Jones does but at 150% of the defense.

This is why I won't mind if coach gets fired. Not since Mike D'Antoni have competent rotation players been ignored for no reason known to fans, while players who play poorly (Jones) keep their positions in the depth chart.

Durant stated that Gillespie is actually fiery and outspoken in the locker room. I wish I knew whether perchance Morris is. Because if he is, something suspicious might possibly be going on here. To wit: I wonder if coach is deliberately marginalizing players who speak out. We already heard about how he asked Devin Booker not to speak too much, which shocked Booker. If true, this would explain a lot of what went wrong this season; and it would be very appropriate to fire coach. We have wondered why the players show no fire. Could it be because coach doesn't want them to?

I doubt we'll see Dunn again this year. Damn you, Bud!

More likely:
Gillespie
Booker
Royce
KD
Richards

I bet Bol has been banished.

Damn you, Bud.

For Bud to laugh this off, I'm starting to wonder about his intelligence.
