Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News
I don't see the value designating in a lineup that "makes sense" but will never play actually play together. I think it's better see at a glance who the best 5 defenders were for that year. I don't really care what type of defender they are, just award the guys who're best at stopping thei...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 2 (Conf Semis) News Thread
Are the Pacers better when McConnell is on the floor over Hali? Sometimes. Haliburton is approaching enigma territory. He never seems to pressure the defense with drives, plays like Lonzo Ball on offense. I don't like it. I just don't think he's been right since he injured his hamstring. I thought ...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 2 (Conf Semis) News Thread
I'm willing to forego continuity for the sake of having a balanced roster, which is exactly what the Wolves have put together. I think most of us are, I just don't see the avenue to get there. Despite the delusion peddled in press conferences, I think Ishbia and the rest of the front office know it...

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News
Seeing these teams I think it’s dumb they don’t do positions still. Both of those teams would have defensive issues. I want an all-nba(defense) team that is an actual team you could put on the court. Even if they did something like three front court, two back court players would be better without h...

Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News
That's true about their cap space. I'm glad we didn't end up with Hield. I think his best days are well behind him he made nearly $20M this season. McConnell, on the other hand...
Regardless, they stayed patient and ended up with a much better player in Siakam.

Turner alone wouldn't have been enough to match salaries.

I'm not anti-Bud, just anti-coach speak and especially so in the off-season.

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 2 (Conf Semis) News Thread
But I do think a different Thunder player is a strong possibility: Gordon Hayward (next year’s EG). Agreed. He is probably a lock. I really hope not. I don't think he has much left and definitely not enough for playoff minutes. Equally as important as his age is the Suns being already essentially l...

Re: Suns hire Mike Budenholzer as head coach
No, I admit that I don't pay attention to that stuff. I suppose I should stop being critical even if it's in jest.

Bobby "Listen" Marks always makes me believe that anyone could work in a front office because I never seem to learn anything from his commentary.

Re: Suns hire Mike Budenholzer as head coach
To me, "random" means not having much of a plan at all, which is what I saw for most of the season.

Re: Suns hire Mike Budenholzer as head coach
IDK, Bud. They sure as hell looked to be "playing random" a whole lot of this past season. I hope you have a better plan. Huh? You watched a different Phoenix Suns team than me. The ones I watched were nothing but predictable. I guess I don't know what "playing random" means then.

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 2 (Conf Semis) News Thread
HUGE win for the Wolves, wow. I thought Denver had it in their hands, especially after that first half when they were up by 15 or something. But the Wolves kept clawing back, even though Ant Edwards shot 6-24 for the game. Jokic looked exhausted by the end. Maybe these Wolves are for real after all...

Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News
We had a significantly better defensive rating this year than Indy and Dallas Absolutely better than Indy, but they had the second best offense in the league. Way ahead of the Suns. Shel's only brought up defense, but those athletic guys help them create transition chances. The Suns didn't have a s...

Show me some proof of when they offered him. It was all media speculation.
