David Griffin told Robert Sarver today that he would not want to become GM of the Suns, and he will not be returning to the Suns next season. I think David Griffin would be best for the job, as Seth said continuity is what the Suns need right now, that and chemistry. AZCentral reported and speculated on who would be candidates for the Suns GM next season. I will give a quick overview of them.
Dennis Lindsey - He is one of the 30 candidates the Suns will interview. His current position is the San Antonio Spurs assistant GM and Vice President. Before being the Spurs assistant GM, he was a exec for the Rockets. In 2009 the Wolves offered him the job of GM, he declined. Before joining the Rockets, he was a recruiting coordinator at a junior college.
Ronnie Lester - Currently the Lakers assistant GM. In 1987 he began working as the Lakers scout. He was just promoted to assistant GM in 2006. As a player he played under Lute Olsen, who regarded Lester as being the best player he ever coached.
Tony Ronzone - He lives in the valley and was a scout for the Mavs from 1998-2000 and then the Pistons from 2001-2009, before being hired as the Wolves assistant GM. He is also the Director of International Player Personnel of the USA Basketball Nation Team. He helped land Zeljiko Rebraca, Mehmet Okur and Carlos Delfino and DRUM ROLL PLEASE! Darko Milicic. No, just no. Worst Choice IMO.
Rex Champman - Former Sun, Nuggets Vice President of Player Personnel, who still lives in the Valley. He is best friends with Nash and Nash said he would not have considered signing if it wasn't for Rex. Best choice IMO.
The front office is falling apart!!
