Pay This Man

I would like you all to think about reasons why the Suns should NOT hire Flip Saunders. I can think of none. He is an experienced winning coach. And, he can bring Terry Porter with him. Now I'll add some more IMO material since I have to hit the minimum....Really, who else looks good out there? I liked the sound of Brian Shaw, but again, a rookie coach. How can you hire Terry Porter, the "front runner" over the man he's working for? The rest of the field are just assistants...Blah, blah, blah. Hire Flip.

Discuss amongst yourselves.

Decent Ideas

The link below has some rational thoughts about how to fix this team. I don't think a new guy as a coach of a veteran team is a good idea, but there are worse ideas, like hiring Eddie Johnson or Dan Majerle.

Other thoughts....Who has trade value on the team? Do you trade Diaw or Barbosa? Lose versatility or lose three point shooting and speed? I think Diaw is more valuable, but if we need three point shooting, then getting rid of Barbosa won't help. Should we keep Giricek. I'm really just filling in space to meet the minimum word requirement.
