The direction this franchise is moving is so bad... the last thing they should be concerned with is a luxury parking lot.

Local TV Ratings are off a league worst 37% this year as well.
In my opinion, you should own a professional sports franchise to win at the highest level, not to make money. Sarver (with his dad's help) has already made plenty of cash. He bought a franchise that had everything in place and under his direction the ship has finally sunk. It started with Deng and Rondo and it has evolved into nearly every Suns legend wanting nothing to do with the franchise.
Lindsey Hunter should have never been given the job. Sarver could have signed Rudy Gay this year, we could bring in Josh Smith or go after Pau Gasol; Sarver is just too damn cheap to do so. His penny pinching was evident when he hired a former agent (Babby) to handle all contract negotiations as his new GM.
If turning one of the best franchise's in sports into a joke wasn't bad enough, say goodbye to purple being a dominant color in the Suns uniforms. Nazi Sarver wants to sell more jerseys (similar to the Cardinals, ASU alternates) so black will be the color of our road jerseys next year. I was told that the new uni's will look just like the new court with black being the dominant color.
