Just my luck, I will be gone for the morning.

I'm not finding any mention of the announcement anywhere else.

This would be good news. I think McDonough has the Suns on the right course.

Include Brandon Knight trade and things would really be shaping up. :)

"Lets extend the guy who oversaw the worst season in Suns history. Aside from the IT/Bledsoe/Len/Goran/Lakers/Knight trainwrecks, he has such amazing vision and ability to plan" - Sarver

Come on...the worst season in Suns history is laying it on a little thick when they were doing it on purpose. But ok.

I think it's a good thing. He has made some questionable moves, but what new GM didn't when starting their careers ? He was derailed by the notion that the 48 win team was actually good and they made a push to win.

We are on a good track now and he's nailed the last 3 drafts. 3 year extension is deserved.

Why were they doing it on purpose? Maybe because they knew trying would be futile as we have a horrible team?

Your argument is like one of these 400 pound militant anti-man women "choosing" to be single rather than the reality that she couldnt get a date if she tried.

yeah, the Suns "choose" to be bad. If we started trying, we'd be there in game 7 vs the Cavs.

brilliant

You're saying they haven't tanked ? or that the thought that getting to this point was entirely McD's fault ?

No blame on Sarver/Blanks/Babby for the scorched earth they left McD with ?

It takes time to rebuild from that and I'd say they are moving in the right direction, but obviously you don't agree. Free Agents aren't coming here anymore, so the quick rebuild isn't in the cards here.

Did you like the perpetual 40-42, 9th place in the Western Conference seasons that stacked up every year? This is how rebuilding is done in the NBA. It's working. We will be top 3-4 in the West two years from now. This is how it has to go, unless you can convince LeBron to come here now.

Sarver: James Jones has put together very impressive resume. He is going to be key piece of our organization going foward.
