I don't think Saric is coming back for a while and Craig isn't coming back.

A former UofA basketball standout with great potential in peril of not being valued by an Arizona pro team. I humbly ask every Cat fan within earshot: "What could possible go wrong and does the outcome have anything to do with the fact that god hates me?"

Is it about putting pressure on Monty to elicit a "mature" self-accountability from Ayton to have a monster year and earn the salary match? (which is stupid and unfair to both Ayton and Monty)

Or is it a prelude to just letting Ayton walk if he expects to be compensated like a one of the best centers in the NBA? As in: Who needs Ayton, Steve Kerr, or Joe Johnson when we have Robert Sarver who knows best?

Well, as if it needs be mentioned, why not get BoRo involved?

Ayton earned every dime of that extension.

If the Suns don’t want to pay him, another team most definitely will!

Last night's game was terrible. They showed some life in the 2nd quarter but other than that they were flat and just seemed like they didn't care. Booker and Paul were almost non-existent. Same with Ayton after the first quarter. Shamet, Payne, and Javale showed some fight off the bench. I hope they have some more fight against the Lakers tomorrow.

I don't know if there's any merit to that, but I thought it looked curious the way he was patting the Mercury players on the ass. He even went slow and looked down at their asses as he did it. I mean, I'd be fired immediately.

I hope nobody got hurt, but I can't help feeling elation right now at the prospect of cleaning up whatever mess he made, and getting him kicked out. Maybe Bearded Frank can go with him.

I recommend following John Gambadoro on this.

They're also reporting it now on Arizona Sports.

Somebody needs to be held accountable. If ESPN is up to the same crap again, they need to pay for it this time. Why do I think Adam Silver would do a better job at that than Bobby Robbins?

Any male business owner who touches a female employee's ass on national television reveals himself to the nation as a male business owner who touches female employees' asses.

I don't see any way around that.

Think about yourself in that situation. Under no circumstance would you do that, unless it's something you're used to doing.

The original tweet dude said 1-2 weeks in a follow up interview. Obviously Sarver knows exactly what's coming out. And the report was ready after the regular season. Also, the league already knew. Sarver said they're in the process of responding.

So, I'd guess ESPN has been in communication with Silver's office. which has its own investigation. And that Sarver has been leveraging something to delay submitting responses. And that ESPN and the NBA lost patience and took away the leverage by deploying the tweet person.

The new statements from Sarver and Rowley show no concern that people clearly have been harmed.
