The sunburst logo returns to center court this year. Here's an image of how center court will look for the upcoming season for Suns home games.

The Suns will have a new black home uniform for the 2015-16 season. Here first round draft pick Devin Booker models the new uniform.

The Suns will have a public scrimmage on October 3rd at Veteran's Memorial Coliseum. Also known as the Mad House on McDowell, the Coliseum was the Suns home from their first season in 1968 until their current arena, now known as Talking Stick Resort Arena, opened in 1992. I went to tons of games at the Madhouse back in the day, and am planning on attending the free scrimmage.

Jeff Hornacek is entering the third year of his three year contract as head coach of the Suns this year. There's a fourth year on the deal, but it's strictly a team option.

Tyson Chandler is going to end up being one of my all-time favorite Suns. He brings leadership, rebounding, and a tough inside presence to the Suns. His acquisition reminds me of when the Suns traded for Maurice Lucas going into the 1982-83 season. The Suns had the "soft" label attached to them at the time, and Lucas was a tough-minded veteran power forward who was also the premier enforcer in the NBA at the time.

Let's hope Markieff meant it when at Suns Media Day he said he wants to be on the Suns. Dan Majerle seemed to confirm Markieff's statement during an interview. Markieff has been working out this summer at Grand Canyon University, where Majerle coaches.

Rough opening night loss to Dallas. Nothing else to say. It's just one game.

TJ Warren is such a natural scorer. I'd like to see him in the starting lineup.

Suns head coach Jeff Hornacek's job is reportedly under immediate threat as the Suns dismal recent play culminated last night with a loss to the 1-30 76ers on the Suns hone court. It might have felt like salt being rubbed in Suns owner Robert Sarver's wound as the man who sold the Suns to Sarver, Jerry Colangelo, has recently taken over the reigns of the 76ers.

It's so great to see the two players I consider to be the future of the Suns, TJ Warren and Devin Booker, both in the starting lineup for a second straight game today.

The Suns have been fading primarily because of a brutal 20 games in 34 days, in my opinion. I'm looking for them to bounce back and play much better with a far easier schedule the rest of the way with more home games and more time off between games.

Thanks to FoxSports 910 am in Phoenix, I'm going to be at the Suns game tonight in a suite. I won two tickets calling in to the Drive radio show yesterday. It's going to be quite a thrill to see the Suns game in a suite.
