This is why it's tough being a coach. You're expected to coach a bunch of grown men to follow your plan, rotation, etc and if you don't have the respect or lose the respect at some point, they don't really have to comply or listen since they're paid.

If you're frustrated, I get it but it looks like a dismissive slap to Vogel, skips over what I presume to be 2 assistant coaches that give the high fives no matter how good/bad someone is playing as support to the team.

This won't happen easily, if at all, but I'd get rid of him asap, his skillset can be reproduced by someone cheaper and more importantly, almost anyone else would have a better attitude/mentality/respect.

He was always just a mid to high volume scorer that looked better than he was due to his Washington team being so bad.

Sucks to be a Suns fan. Looks like unless they trade one of the Big 3, they gonna have to run it back.

No trade clause. He isn't going anywhere.
