Several Suns reserves privately grumbled last season that they deserved playing time on a 60-win team that was fighting for a championship. But as the 2007-08 season beckons, last year’s bench is even further away from the goal:

 *Forward Jumaine Jones was cut by the New Jersey Nets

 *Center Pat Burke was cut by the Golden State Warriors

 *Free agent guard Jalen Rose is sitting at home waiting for the phone to ring.

 It remains to be seen how much Sean Marks and Eric Piatkowski wind up playing for the Suns this year. But when the season starts next season, at least they’ll have jobs.
