    Don’t play Beal for the rest of his contract. He can smile on the bench for the next 2 years or get traded.

    Bickley when are you going to apologize to KD …cause you was going in on him the other day and now he puts up 80 points in two games and i don’t hear one word from you about KD .

  4. @dr.munchmicuchi4878

    KD has been putting up numbers all season, but you can’t deny the lack of effort from the team as a whole, has been bad since he arrived. Not blaming him at all but he’s the common denominator. There is no need for an apology.

    I want to believe, but ironically the thing I'm least confident in isn't that this team has the players to compete, its that our current coach will actually continue to put those players on the court and in the combinations that make sense (and has now worked for 4 straight games). Maybe this is all fools gold, but even if it is, I want the team to go down swinging with their high energy high defense/rebounding guys getting the bulk of the minutes around KD and Book. As a Suns fan of 30+ years, I've never actually called for a coach to be fired before. Even in recent years, while I didn't love them, I didn't desire to see Monty or Vogel kicked to the curb. But if we revert to the same "what if we had 5 shooters and zero defenders/rebounders" style of basketball Bud has been forcing, and has been consistently not working, all season long, at any point, even for a single game, then I'm going to call for Bud to not just be fired, but out of a cannon.

    We know going full offense and playing all the vets does NOT work. We know playing booker, kd, and beal at the same time does NOT work. We've got 40 some games of evidence to that effect this year. If we're going to go down, lets go down swinging with the youngins. If we still lose, so be it, but at least we won't wonder what if, and the rookies will get some important, high pressure, minutes at the NBA level then can build off for future seasons.

    Maybe they were playing possum or something. It depends on where they are at the end of the season. Still the toughest reaming schedule. Possible win against the Cetlics but we have the Wolves, Rockets, Bucks again, Celtics again, Warriors, Thunder, Spurs, and then Finally Kings.

  8. @Ro-yl9tn

    The suns are now winning again, because Beal hasn’t played, Oso is the better back up Center, Tyus is better off the bench, Dunn being reinserted back into the starting lineup and Cody Martin has gave them a boost. Grayson hasn’t played either. Buds rotations are better, they need better 3 point defense

    All the Arizona media people quiet about Kevin Durant now, huh? Dan Bickley is Foukin R4cist!

  14. @ElMexipon

    Dan Bickley you a 🐱 man. Be a man and keep the same energy you had towards Durant a couple of weeks ago.
