They are really horrible.

The whole mix is wrong. Lack of depth is a massive issue. Just awful.

Yes. Some of the worse lines I have ever seen. For fantasty basketball he is the 400th best player.

Jackson sucks. He shows flashes on D but hes terrible. He had a interview before season saying he worked really hard this year and hoped to shoot 32% from 3 this year. THIRTY TWO. Hes a joke. Ayton is legit and so is booker. Team needs legit 3 and D type guys and someone athletic to run the breaks booker is too fat. Bridges looks terrible as well so glad we gave up the better pick in smith and another pick to trade up and get someone terrible.

They're a shambles. Getting smashed on the boards game after game.

Without Booker, they simply have no major scoring threat. Everyone just stands around on offense wondering who's going to do what.

Jackson is looking like a really, really poor man's Justise Winslow.

Yup, agreed. It seems like nobody cares over there. They have talent and some savvy vets but get destroyed. It's been going on too long.

I'm all for changing the draft set up too. Why should good to great clubs not ever get a chance at developing top level talent.

this...(well not the fro part lol) but while he has never been a good shooter...last year for the last 29 games played his line was:

18.5ppg, 6.1rpg, 2.1apg, 1.3spg, 0.7bpg

.445FG-not good but not like horrendous or anything
.267 3pt%- horrendous...lol

like he wasnt some superstar...but he definitely seemed to be promising ending his rookie season....

i know they didnt have anyone down the stretch last yr so those numbers were not realistic with booker/ayton...but still...he has looked truly atrocious to the point where he doesnt seem like he will even be in rotation/in the league at all soon...

i thought he was gonna be #3 of that trio and a pretty productive #3 too

I'm a huge Suns fan but it's hard to watch right now (completely unwatchable without Booker)

Isaiah Canaan should not be in the league and he's starting, Ryan Anderson is a freakin joke, my god. Josh Jackson is so underwhelming it hurts to know we could have used him to get Kyrie potentially.

The is 0 effort on the defensive end. There are plays where even our stars just stand around.

I agree with you on this. I am a huge Suns fan also and it does suck to watch. They have some damn good talent on this team and there is no reason at all they should be getting destroyed like they are.

So who needs a boot in the ass to turn this thing around coaching staff, GM, owner??

Yeah, Jackson has not been very good this season. Very surprising, he was so highly regarded coming outta high school and college. He's basically been Stanley Johnson so far this season. Hopefully he starts to find somewhat of a rhythm, he had a pretty good second half of 2017-18.

So who on the coaching staff needs a boot in the ass to turn this thing around
It’s definitely not the coaching staff that is the problem...Sarver has needed the boot for quite some time. How many coaches have we gone through since his takeover? AZ is actually a great place to live but there is a major reason nobody wants to come play here. I have known a few people who have worked/work at the arena and all have the same opinion of Sarver. My wife worked in game ops when Sarver first took over. First week as the new owner he fired a floor security guard (worked for the Suns for 20+ years). Sarvers spoiled kids wanted on the floor without credentials and no parents so the guard was doing his job not allowing them. I am good friends with a lady who currently works in the ticket box office and she says the entire sales staff can’t stand him. He also fired a good friend of ours and one of the best game ops in the business (Kip Helt) who would get the arena fired up and do so much for the community. He has lost the respect of the fans, players, and staff. These are only a few examples of the type of person he is off the court. He has destroyed the program and doesn’t have a clue to what he is doing. He is by far the worst owner in the league and arguably the worst in any of the 3 major US sports.

yeah I was going to put GM & owner on there but guess I hit submit to seen. So I edited my post.

But yeah the owner sounds like a real d-bag. Doesn't sounds like he gives a rats ass about the business, community or the fans and players. Just does not make any sense. As the owner don't you want the business to thrive and have people look up to you etc... I guess being a douche is what he would rather be.
