What do you guys think of the "complete satisfaction guaranteed" night and that refunds will be made "without question"? Both quotes are from the Suns' promotions for the night.
1) Do you think many people will take the Suns up on the offer? I don't see how any Suns' fan could be completely satisfied with that game.
2) Do you really think the Suns are going to refund "without question", which I heard on a promotion on 620? My guess they are going to make the fans jump through a lot of hoops.
Edit: looking at the web site, it looks relatively easy. There are no required questions on the form, which is up now.

They had a season high in attendance this year, over 3000 more fans than the average game. I think the general idea is to get the people in the door, because with the idea that you can get your ticket money back, you can spend more on merchandise and concessions. I also saw where the Suns are going to try a promo where you name your own price for your tickets...

Heard a radio interview about this with one of the Suns' higher ups this week. They hired a third party company to administer all the refunds. Sounded like they weren't going to make people jump through hoops and didn't have any kind of stipulation as to what "satisfaction" even was. Pretty bold to do that, IMO/

The Phoenix Suns have named former NBA player and Suns Player Development Coordinator Lindsey Hunter the club’s interim head coach, the team announced today.

At 13-28 (.317) the Suns are on pace to have their worst season performance since their opening season of 1968-69. This from one of the NBA's best performing franchises over the last 44 years.

Hate to say it, but kinda rooting against the Suns this year. Simply put we need a top 5 pick to help around the franchise. The Suns are no longer a prized free agent destination and years of drafting no higher than the teens has added up. It has been 10 years since we had a top 10 pick that we kept.

Totally agree. They're stuck in NBA limbo where they're not good enough to contend but not bad enough to get a high draft pick. At this point they need to bottom out and start over.

Suns need to tank for at least 3 years in a row and then have a roster set to compete for a title for a decade.

The handling of the roster after Steve Kerr was fired, and then the handling of the coaching staff the last few days, along with the continued awful that is Robert Sarver has basicially made this franchise dead to me.

It's time for new local owners. Sarver's destroying this franchise.

I think it is past destroying. I think it's destroyed.

Eric Bledsoe and Caron Butler will go to the Suns, Jared Dudley and JJ Redick to the Clippers and 2 2nd-round picks to Bucks, sources tell Y

They're still an improvement on the previous design.

For those who haven't seen them:
Look fast; this isn't a saved image, but is a direct link to a web page - and if/when it goes away, so does the image...

I like the home white and the purple is ok (could use a bit more gray), not a fan of the sleeved look.
