Re: Game Day: Suns (18-39) @ Bulls (28-29), Fri 2/24/17

Is there really a team that would pay Len more than 15 million per year? I guess the Nets would sign almost anyone, but they have a lot of candidates to sign ahead of Len on all positions. There are a lot of solid centers in the league. Mozgov and Mahinmi got 16 million per least off-season, so yes...

Re: Game Day: Suns (18-39) @ Bulls (28-29), Fri 2/24/17

Is he though? What would you do if Alan Williams keeps out playing him in a backup role for the rest of the year? This is where I am at the moment. Big Sauce delivers. I just don't know that I would be able to pay him that much while Chandler and Knight are still here making a combined $26.6M next ...

Re: Game Day: Suns (18-39) @ Bulls (28-29), Fri 2/24/17

If they start him the rest of the year and he plays well, I still think we should try our best to re-sign him. The numbers will probably give us some sticker shock ($15m/yr?), but with the new CBA, that isn't a scandalous price if he is a good starting center. Is he though? What would you do if Ala...

Re: Game Day: Suns (18-39) @ Bulls (28-29), Fri 2/24/17

Great game. I liked the rotation especially watching Alex Len suck for 35 minutes. This is audition for the off season as I see it and I think it is a smart move by management. A smart move would have been trading him a long time ago. Or not signing Tyson Chandler. The real smart move, would have b...

Re: Around the League: Week 16 2/6 - 2/12

Bledsoe can put up numbers. Dragic can run a team. I don't see Bledsoe taking Miami on that winning streak. I don't see Dragic letting us slide this far. Perhaps that's true, but it's purely subjective. What is it about Dragic that makes you think he runs a team better than Bledsoe? I am not a huge...

Re: Flynn resigns

I like John pilger and his moral crusades even though his conclusions go too far beyond what the 'facts' probably suggest i.e. he seems biased against the west, but it's not hard to understand why he's like this after a life time spent documenting the west's atrocities. Either way, he always raises ...

Re: Game Day: Suns (17-37) @ Rockets (39-17), Sat 2/11/17

From what I've read I thought Sarver is entirely hands off, and has been for a while? My take is that he was trying to stamp his unqualified authority on the matter - it took balls to do what he did, but his flaws were painfully revealed in the process - it took hardcore incompetence to get the resu...

Re: Game Day: Suns (17-37) @ Rockets (39-17), Sat 2/11/17

Just curious, how would you guys react if Booker develops into an All Star next season, however the 76ers convey the LAL pick and it turns out to be #1 overall and they end up drafting a kid who shows superstar promise his rookie season while whoever we draft doesn't show any promise at all? And fo...

Around the League: Week 16 2/6 - 2/12

It's not just IT that's the problem though is it? He not only epic failed to spot this guy's talent, he vastly over estimated Knight's talent - or his mental strength, or both - and had zero concept or concern (both just as bad as each other) about what Dragic brought to the table. A pretty ugly tri...

First career double double for Bender.

(But not necessarily saying Rubio is one of those guys, just checked and wow his career .368 fg% is awful)
