    the interview here:



    I'll add it does sound like this guy has an axe to grind. Still, it certainly fits the emerging pattern

    Neil traded for RoLo. One of his best trades. Went from 33-49 to 54-28 largely because of that deal. No Williams was important too, of course.

    LMA publicly said he wanted to stay a blazer his entire life and we had just won our first first playoff series a year before for the first time in over 10 years.. I don't knock him for that.

    To the people defending Olshey.....why?

    I mean, I'd be a bit more sympathetic if he had targeted and drafted Giannis, or Adebayo, or Mitchell, or trade for PG at some point.

    But there is like....no results from his tenure here. I agree being an asshole is not necessarily damning, but what is keeping you guys attached to him?

    Yikes, anyone hear from Leslie Radakovich yet!? :dunno:

    Penny Sarver, wife of Robert Sarver, sent messages to three former Phoenix Suns employees

    Three former Phoenix Suns employees have received messages from Penny Sarver, the wife of Robert Sarver, who is the team's majority owner.

    Two messages came from the @pennsar Instagram account and another was a text message from a number that belongs to Penny Sarver.

    These former employees say they consider the messages an attempt to intimidate them.

    Most recent activity was liking a post from Norm about his return here. And lots of pro-dem political stuff.

    Is anyone that particularly attached? My only angle with drama/discord is how it impacts Dame's mindset. He's more my priority than Olshey-- been saying for a while we need someone who takes more risks.

    So, if he dislikes Olshey that disqualifies his opinion. Doesn't that mean that any employee Olshey mistreated is blocked from testifying against him?

    He's obviously gone. I completely believe what you're hearing. He's gone and will not get paid the rest of his contract. .

    They wouldn't be doing an "investigation" if it wasn't a forGone conclusion IMO.
