Long time Phoenician!
It is looking like Mark West should not have been promoted to big men's coach.
The results have been underwhelming and inconsistent.
Between former players trying their hands at coaching and brothers on the roster, the philosophy of we-are-fam-i-ly is backfiring.
I see fresh faces with fresh ideas as the only possible solution for the current status of the Suns. We all hoped that Ryan McDonough would bring that mentality but, so far, we haven't seen it. 'Disappointing!

Len just got Lopezed. ****!

The entire Suns bench has gone to the opposite baseline to check on Len after his alleyoop crash. He is walking it off. #SunsAtBlazers

That is what i said..I dont get the excuse that a coach "coached" the talent outta him. Dude has just regressed to unbelievable low!!! he cant catch, he cant finish, he cant rebound...he just SUCKS!!! Plumlee cares about his hair than his game!

What else can it be? They turned him into a p#ssy finesse player while before he was an above the rim power center.

C'mon now. You know better than that! He was an alleyoop and shot block machine when he came to us. He learned his bad habits afterward.

He was blocking shots from the start of the season but the alley oops were very few and far between.

It was a nice comeback till we lost Len. Surprising considering all the turnovers and the fact that neither Goran nor Thomas showed up tonight.

?????? What do you think made him an exciting player? It wasnt his jump shooting. Attacking the rim was all he did along with hustle play. If you dont remember that Im not sure what to tell you.
Sounds like the way the season will go, if he is out for long

Probably. We can win some games with the little guys but we're clearly at our best when he and Markieff are out there with them.

Why would Dragic come back to this treadmill team?

I don't know how it's a treadmill team. Maybe write them off because you think the organization itself is a treadmill but this roster is very young and has little experience together. Only Dragic, Markieff, and Tucker were on the roster of this team at the start of the 2012-2013 season. And unless you count Goran's previous stint in Phoenix, Markieff is the old man on this roster having been drafted by the Suns just the season before. Other than Philadelphia and perhaps Minnesota I doubt there is a team out there that comes anywhere close to our lack of experience as a unit.

I think people are over estimating Dragic's market in the first place. I doubt many teams are going to be falling over themselves to toss a near max deal at a one dimensional PG, who is not much of a passer.
Not saying he won't get offers, but I think he will be looking at closer to the 4 years 50-55 million range than a max deal, and really I could see it being less. The two most talked about teams to pursue him are Houston, who does not have the cap space to make a huge offer and the Lakers, and I don't see them coming to the conclusion that they're a "Goran Dragic" away from being relevant again. They're far more likely to save their wad for a bigger splash.
I think a 5 year deal of 60-65 million by the Suns would dramatically outbid any other suitors.

That would a massive overpay for the 29year old Goran Dragic.
If Kyle Lowry got a 4year/48 mil. extension, I don't really see why Dragic should have to get significantly more.
BTW, the Knicks may/will pursue him as well.
