Roster is a dumpster fire, starting with Beasley. Wasted money on him when that should have went to OJ Mayo to address their gaping hole at shooting guard (Shannon Brown is backup material at best).
Frye was lost for the year with a heart ailment, what do you expect?

Sarver needs to sell, here’s a guy who traded draft picks like Rondo and Deng to avoid the luxury tax, yet signs stiffs like Marcus Banks.

It’s wrong to call President Obama anything other than Mr. President. i tell his detractors this all the time.

However, in their defense, consider the things that were said about President Bush during his eight years in office by those who now get so indignant about the things President Obama is called. Or is it right to call the President “chimp”, “moron”, etc., if you’re on the left and the President is from the right? Regardless of party, the person is the President, treat him with respect for the office he holds even if you don’t respect the man.

That’s a case were you need to fire the players not the coach. Look what they put on the floor everynite. Ok you’re not going to fire the players , can someone say get the GM outta here.

I’d like people to call the President Of The United States ……MR. PRESIDENT !

But what we hear from the uneducated, uncultured, disrespectful tea party, rush limbaugh crowd is everything BUT a respectful address to the man that holds the highest office on this planet !

Steve is entering his mid life. While Gentry is 16 years his senior, Nash is old enough and “RESPECTFUL ENOUGH” to address anyone by their first name.

Nash referring to Gentry by his first name can’t possibly be seen as a form of disrespect, especially since he is coming to his old coach’s defense. I’m quite sure Alvin didn’t take it offensively either.

Get off your sofa and go to the inauguration. It is a celebration of America.

I don’t like it when players call a coach by his first name, it’s cool when they call him Coach.

That Suns roster is pure trash. They’d fire Phil Jackson if he coached that team. What would the idiot owner of the Suns think would happen this year after putting that team in the floor?

Gentry was given a knife for a gun fight. I hope he goes where he is deserves and kick the Suns asses for years to come. And Sarver is a doo doo head.

It’s definitely a good thing to get paid after being fired.

You know, I’ve always appreciated Nash…. collectively!

First and foremost, dude is a class act. I’ve NEVER heard him talk a bunch of rubbish. Even though as a competitor talking a little trash can be motivational and is considered part of the game.

He’s never been the fastest, jumped the highest, dribbled the best, ….in-fact, he’s never been the best at any one skill set. But collectively he’s been good at many things, which is why he was awarded MVP accolades.

I TRULY dislike where he’s decided to end his career. That bollywood, fake glitz and glamour has never been his style.

Steve also is one of the most unselfish “FUNDAMENTAL” players to play the game. Now playing with one of the most selfish, narcissistic, ball hogs to ever dribble a ball….it’s not a good fit !

Nash is just a first class Gentleman….I would have liked to see him go out on top and continue to show the next generation how to play “FUNDAMENTAL” ball.

The Lakers should hire Gentry. Seems they’re on a nice roll of hiring fired coaches who have never won a title lately. Might as well keep it going.
