Thats messed up. Collangelo has done a great job so far to keep the quality line up the suns have. All kerr can do is get a decent rookie in the draft. There isnt much to change in the suns lineup except get a youthful PG to eventually take over from nash in 3-4 years and a back up centre for amare. Kurt thomas isnt really a centre even tho he does a great job.
i guess thats better then some of the trade rumours ive heard going round about the suns..having someone like kerr could be good so long as he doesnt try to change every single part of the suns..a few touch ups here n there would be good..hell maybe he might even be able to get us some kinda bench

Guys, Colangelo left for Toronto 12 months ago. Kerr is taking over from D'Antoni, who has been President/GM/Head Coach for the last year and wants to concentrate solely on coaching.
Kerr will be great. He thinks contemporary and has a vast knowledge of the game. He played college for Arizona and was drafted by the Suns, so he has a background with us.
Nash and D'Antoni have said they want to keep their core of players, even if it means going over the cap, and Sarver (Owner) has supported this.
Draft-
-24th pick- Acie Law (If he doesn't fall, trade it for a pick next year)
-29th pick, Sean William (If he didnt have more baggage than Artest, he would be top 10)
-59th pick, Jared Jordan (Steve Nash Jr.)
Sign-
-Grant Hill (He want to come here, for min contract)
And if they don't get drafted
-Newley
-James Hughes, Northern Illinois (Bit of a 'Love Child' of mine)

Kerr has his a small bit of trouble on his heads IMO.
Walking into a franchise that has a loaded roster, but just cant get over the hump, one of your stars seems to be causing troubles with the other two stars, one of those stars whines like a biatch because he doesn't have as many bobbleheads in the team store and is feeling unloved.
You have a new owner that is taking 100% control of the this season and is talking about lowering the wages.
Kerr is going to have to make one huge trade soon which is going to cost him an all-star.
Law III won't be there at 24, and Williams is major talent but got kicked out of school for bong issues, plus his posse won't be welcome in the Suns.
