Robert Sarver, managing partner of the Phoenix Suns, discussed the team’s off-season needs and wants.
Robert Sarver, the managing partner of the Phoenix Suns, spoke on the Burns and Gambo radio show yesterday for a few of parts to discuss his bittersweet feelings about the season that just ended.
The Suns organization has not yet recapped the 2020-21 season for us, despite the season finishing in a Finals loss just a week ago and the NBA Draft, trades, and free agency season starting just a week later.
Sarver, like the rest of us, was pleased with the team’s rapid, unexpected success but sad that they were unable to close the deal with a championship. After the Suns were up 2-0 in the NBA Finals, he was confident, but it only made him take the last loss worse.
“The longer you play in the playoffs and don’t win the last game, the more bitter it is,” he said to Burns and Gambo.
Even so, the Suns’ Finals run left a ‘lasting imprint’ on the world.
“It was a great opportunity to introduce our team, our culture, our city” to a billion people in 230 countries. He said merchandise sales were record-breaking, and lauded the city’s response to the team including the tens of thousands of fans for showing up organically to the airport after they won the West.
Can he ever look back on the season with nothing but joy? “That’ll never come to pass,” Sarver said quickly.
“I promise everybody we’re going to demand excellence and try to improve,” he said of going forward. “And win that last game together.”
“Our players smelled blood in the water this year. It will be a motivator for continued success.”
