    Absolutely ridiculous. Since Booker was drafted by the Suns, they've had 4 different coaches - Hornacek, Watson, Triano, Kokoskov. And now they're going to be on their 5th coach in 5 seasons.

    How do you expect Booker and Ayton to develop and be consistent if the head coach is not consistent?

    If PHX doesn't make a significant jump within the next two seasons, I can definitely see Booker pulling an "Anthony Davis" and demanding a trade with a year or two left on his contract.

    Suns organization is hot garbage.

    Bad decision imho. I think Kokoskov has done a decent job.

    Can't blame the coach for having a crap team to coach. Ownership needs to get fired .

    Ofcourse, why would you want to create a foundation for your young players. Just hire a coach and stick with him for a longer period.

    Dude totally misused Ryan Anderson and Ariza. They would have been better served just tanking all year.

    The real injustice is my dear and funny clown not cashing in more retirement checks. C'mon Sarver, hook a brother up! He'll make a team play harder!

    azcentral.com has some great stuff from during the season, including one making me respect Booker a lot more.

    I'm sure the next HC will look forward to a season of getting to coach the players.

    Sarver really trying to overtake Dolan as worst owner. I just moved back to Houston from Phoenix. I actually met sarver back when I was in college. Owning a team is 100% a business move for him. I honestly don’t think he cares much about winning. Winning would just be the cherry on top for him - it’s not the reason he’s in his position.
