Re: Game Day: Suns (26-27) @ Rockets (33-20), Wed 2/12/25

3rd quarter Suns strike again. My guess is we give up the lead here never to regain it.

The Suns' Big 3: KD, Bol Bol, and TyTy Washington?

Re: Game Day: Grizzlies (35-17) @ Suns (26-26), Tues 2/11/25

The real fix here is, don't promise players that if they sign with you for less than market value, you'll give them a starting spot or a certain amount of minutes no matter what. I realize "go back in time and don't do that" isn't a viable solution today, but we should learn never to do that again ...

How did Book hurt his back? Did I miss that play yesterday? As long as our new MVP Bol Bol is playing, we're set.

Re: Game Day: Grizzlies (35-17) @ Suns (26-26), Tues 2/11/25

IMO Tyus would be a really effective bench PG when we don't have many of our Big 3 guys out there. Starting him kind of wastes him on offense (just bring the ball up and hand it to KD) and he's bad on defense, so there's no point to playing him.

I'm glad Van Gundy didn't hold back on railing on our horrible defense all night. That said, it’s impressive it was even that close. If we cleaned that stuff up, we'd be a top third team. But, we haven't all season long. Way too many wide open threes and easy access to the basket. Not to mention we ...

Re: Game Day: Grizzlies (35-17) @ Suns (26-26), Tues 2/11/25

What a way for KD to spoil his 30,000th point game by throwing a horrible TO with the game on the line, basically sealing the loss. IMO this game was almost a perfect encapsulation of the KD experience. Very impressive play, scores a bunch, but kind of gums up the offense, sloppy turnovers, some ...

Wow. That Bol Bol stat line is impressive! How did he look? He looked mostly great. Great start to the game hitting several shots and getting blocks. Then a few Bol Bol moments, silly plays, turnovers, bad shots in the middle of the game. Then he ended the game very strong again. Overall very good ...

Re: Suns News: Week 17 (2/10 - 2/16)

It’s funny that we’ve tried everything except bringing Tyus off the bench. Gotta think we’ll never promise a borderline starter they can start ever again. Do we have actual confirmation that they promised Tyus a starting role when they signed him? It seems like he is still starting despite not being ...

Really nice to see Bol Bol balling out. 18 pts, 13 reb, 4 blk. Great game for him, happy for my guy. Looks like we are likely to narrowly lose this one. Where has Booker been? Seems like he's just dribbling to the basket and passing it out every time. Doesn't seem to be looking for his shot much. 9 ...

Those TyTy wide open bricked 3s, three of them in a row, were pretty brutal. He's playing hard, good defense, some nice passes. But he shouldn't be taking 3s.

TyTy is trytrying pretty hard against Morant on defense. Knocked the ball loose for a steal just now. Not saying he's shutting Ja down or anything, but he is working hard out there.

Suns within 4! Memphis calls timeout. Pretty impressive comeback here in the 2nd half after a fairly unimpressive first half.

Re: Suns News: Week 17 (2/10 - 2/16)

In reality the PF position has changed quite a bit. The great PF’s of the past would almost all be 5s today. Malone, Duncan, KG, Amare…Barkley would still be a 4 and Dirk might still play the 4, but most have become 5s. KD plays the 4 now, so we do in fact have a dominant PF. LeBron is a 4. Tatum ev ...

Re: Build a championship team with Booker as the best player contest.

There were some truly nasty trades way back in the day, like owners just selling Hall of Famers because they needed $50,000, or selling / trading picks that became legendary stars for almost nothing in return. Like, STL trading Bill Russell to the Celtics, oops. The OKC Harden trade. The Brooklyn ...
