Pull the plug on Durant and Suns, Serena’s greatness, Pac-12 TV deal may be ok, more…

Arizona Sports News online

Just when you think you’ve seen it all, a cellphone pops out of a players uniform here in Arizona

I could also say that if you watch sports long enough, you’ll see some crazy stuff…

Suns and Durant

Kevin Durant chose to play with Kyrie Irving over Steph Curry 

Kevin Durant chose to sign a 4-year, 200 million dollar contract with Brooklyn.

Kevin Durant will be 34 years old later this year

Serena Williams is one of the greatest female athletes of all time. Is she the best? Bonnie Blair was pretty damn good. Jackie Joyner-Kersee made my head spin. Diana Taurasi would be on my list.Arizona Sports News online So would Mia Hamm. The thing about Serena, she ran roughshod over the competition in an era where you can watch her play every single week. She has the social media age on her side too. Not a criticism; it just makes it easier for people to watch her versus those women who dominated their sport for years gone by…
