What would be the point of that when you trail by 30 after 15 minutes?

Amare has the worst +/- because he was the best Suns player and played all minutes in the first quarter and starting in the 2nd quarter while all other starters were pulled already.

Oh, I see. You're saying now that it's possible for the player with the worst +/- to have actually played a good game? ......... and that it's unfair to blame the player with the worst +/- for a loss because the stat line doesn't always tell the true story? I agree 100%. It's good to see you've completely changed your opinion on that subject.

Amare to OKC for Etan Thomas, Matt Harping, the Suns pick and the Thunder pick.

OKC becomes an absolute power house however in the West even.
We shouldn't care about what OKC is doing,its not like OKC being a great team is going to somehow become a thorn in the side of the rebuilding SUNS......our team will suck and there will be many teams that are far superior to ours.
I cannot wait until this season is over and people will be forced to stop using one draft pick as an excuse not to rebuild....what a joke.
This season is a prideful,greedy waste from the FO.

travelling. couldn't watch the game. if Nash isn't gonna get the thing done on offense, playing Frye is a poison pill. that's a dilemma Gentry needs to face like a man and solve like a man.

Gentry has nothing to do with this. You could hire Phil Jackson with Greg Popovich and Jerry Sloan as assistant coaches and they still wouldn't be able to do anything with this team. Teams figure out how to deal with gimmick teams like the Suns.
Amare, Fry, and Nash can't guard a chair, J-Rich is almost as bad, and grant Hill in old. Not only are they terrible defensively, but Barbosa and Richardson are in a major slump, as is Fry.
They surprised a few teams at the beginning, but everyone knows how to deal with them now. On a bright side, we KNEW that this team was horrible. We all know this team will be horrible as long as their 2 stars are the worst defensive players in the league on their position.
All I am interested in is watching Dragic, Lopez, Clark, and Dudley develop and become better players. This season is just about trying to make playoffs to avoid our lottery pick going to OKC and possibly making Sarver some money in first round of playoffs.
+1
I will add that none of the coaches you mentioned would asscoiate themselves with this type of roster, nor the system in which they play. ;)

Everyone needs to realize that stopping at blaming the coach is unbelievably short-sighted. What we have is a failure of the organizational culture and a failure of philosophy. Blaming the coach is like blaming some wilted lettuce for your bad sandwich when you also have molded cheese, stale bread and rotten cold cuts. The lettuce ain't gonna fix that. We need a whole new sandwich....
