Topic:Lance Blanks
Earlier this week Lance Blanks, Phoenix Suns GM, was fired.  Don’t blame Lance Blanks, blame the people that hired him.  Most everyone knew he was in over his head.  My guess is that it was not a Lon Babby hire either.  So, how does a guy get hired?  My guess again is after reading what the owner said about him calling him, his “savant” ( if you are like me you had to look it up, and it means “a scholar or a learned person”) that it was an owner hire.  Remember, owners do get together and they do talk.
