Is this a precursor to KAT being out of the picture? AE is slowly taking over the team as the main alpha dog. KAT may be trade bait
Send KAT to the Warriors for Draymond, Poole, and a couple picks
Steph
Klay
Wiggins
KAT
Looney

I can't believe y'all really think this attire Is acceptable.
Bill Simmons talks about "new owner syndrome" a lot and it seems like Matt Ishba is following that mold. Basically new owners feel the need to make a big splash immediately after buying the team. Matt is a hyper aggressive businessman known for making bold, decisive moves and he's taking that same approach with his basketball team (trading for Durant on his first day of ownership and now firing his coach very quickly).

I’d let Lue go to the Suns for some cash and a pick. Lots of good candidates to replace him right now.

Russ, Booker, KD and Ayton seems like the weirdest group of stars in the league. Seems like a powder keg waiting to explode with a different types of personalities. Would love to see a reality show just following the team around.

They treated Dray like he was their franchise player. It never made sense. Dude be acting a damn fool and Kerr just be standing there with that Karen look on his face. Steph and Klay be nowhere to found. When Rodman would act a fool Mike and Scottie would at least grab him. Seem like it got worse after he put hands on Poole. Dude ain't wanna be next I guess.

What was Monty supposed to do? Jokic averaged 35/13/10, cp3 injured, #1 pick and max contract center getting outplayed by a jock landale.

they are just giving him too much credit for what he can actually do.

After getting trashed by the Mavs, they really didn't have any juice this regular season pre-Durant trade
Was pretty evident things weren't trending positively. Monty the easiest change to make

Don't know what the Suns can give the Clippers to give up Lue. They can't trade a first rounder until draft day of 2024 because of the Durant trade.

To be honest I don’t think Monty is the type of coach that is best served for a team with win now aspirations and huge egos. He is a leader of men and is the type of coach up and coming teams could roll with and eventually become contenders. By all accounts Monty is a good coach but a GREAT person that has endured more tragedy in his life than most people and has come through with grace and a story to impact others and change lives. With guys like CP3 and booker he got to the finals and if not for running into a hot Bucks team that he would be a champion. After that series I said some very harsh things about Book and Monty because I wanted Monty to win and felt like they should’ve won. I knew when the guy that won that series lost his job that Monty would be out. I truly believe that if Sarver were still the owner he would still be the coach but anytime new management comes in they want their guys and want to out their imprint on things. CP3 isn’t it anymore and Ayton never was. If the Suns could some how package both guys and get some young and energetic depth they could be a finals team led by Book and Durant. Monty is very similar to Mike Malone. Mike has grown with the Nuggets when they were up and coming so now that they have found success he isn’t going anywhere.

Monty Williams was not on my bingo card waking up hungover. It’s like life just (Rick James) Dave Chappelle AKA just ***** slapped me in the face.
