“I could call it that it was like a funeral…I don't necessarily think that would be 100% classified”

Phoenix Suns were the best team in the NBA last season. They finished with a league-best 64-18 record. The team was eliminated by the Dallas Mavericks in Western Conference Semifinals. Deandre Ayton was re-signed by Phoenix. Kevin Durant rescinded his trade request. Robert Sarver is accused of wrongdoing. The recent allegations against team owner Robert sarver have painted a dark cloud over the organization.

"I've been to 10-12 teams media days and I have never been at one with such an absence of enthusiasm than was today here in Phoenix."

“I could call it that it was like a funeral, but that implies that they're sad that Robert server is gone. So, let me pivot to saying it felt like it's a dentist's waiting room and the players going up to the podium looked like they were about to have teeth pulled”

Phoenix Suns had a disappointing season and lost in the playoffs. The team is in a national spotlight due to the drama surrounding owner Robert Sarver. They have a well-balanced roster with Chris Paul, Devin Booker, Mikal Bridges and Deandre Ayton.
