I think it’s simply everyone wants him in LA(Bronny, Klutch, LeBron, even Lakers) but Lakers want to use 55 and Klutch is trying to get them to take him at 17 and need leverage…enter LeBron buddy James Jones.
That's a solid possibility.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

I know there's a lot of talk about Bronny, but that's all it is. Talk. The 'draft experts' in the media can't all just say "nah." If they do that they lose a big storyline.

How does Schierman hold up on defense…he’s a little smaller than I’d like at 6’6-6’7 and 200 pounds…6’8 wingspan
Schierman isn't great on D. Freeman is worlds better on that end.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

I think Missi and Ware both go before we pick. There are going to be a lot of GMs looking to counter Victor and Chet. In any case, assuming we do draft, I don't think Jones would draft an underclassman. If we do get a younger player, that's an indication that he doesn't have much influence left. Ede...

Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News

Funny how few All-NBA players are left in the playoffs. IMO this pace and space era really rewards team play.

Same as any other supporting player, he relies on the system and his teammates to make him a threat.

Hmm.

Anybody else think he looks like he works at a morgue? That's the type of face and hair that Hollywood casts to play a funeral home director or hearse driver.

Re: Suns hire Mike Budenholzer as head coach

Anybody else notice that one of the first things Bud did was to point out that James Jones built this roster? And that he said to win you have to have unity and input from coaches, management, and ownership. Bud said that the Suns have a chance to have that unity. My man is already subtly lobbying f...

Re: Suns Fire Frank Vogel

Not trying to pick on Cap, but I don't really see much point in micro-analyzing these kinds of comments from press conferences and interviews. We used to criticize DA and other players and coaches for this sort of thing, giving a quote that sounds a bit off. These interviews are mostly meaningless ...

Is that Bronny's real account? I can't tell anymore and I'm not on Twitter. Anyway, I'm not going to roast a kid for saying the right thing. I do want to roast whoever wrote that tweet for quoting the interviewer and not Bronny himself. Bronny actually says "I don't think a GM would allow that....

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

I’ve heard a lot of Kolek talk…I don’t want to use a pick on a 6’1 backup pg though. If we keep the pick I hope it’s for a big(Yves Missi or Kel’el Ware…not sure about Edey). Then trade 31 and Little for Tari Eason. Sign Kris Dunn and Chuma Okeke. Keep Royce. Booker/Beal/KD/Eason/Nurk Dunn/Allen/Ro...

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

I don' think Missi will fall to us, but I wouldn't be mad if he did. I haven't looked at Klintman before because I don't think Jones/Ishbia will draft someone who played internationally, but I do like what I just saw.

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News

I have them in the same tier of Center. It's splitting hairs to pick who's better. I don't really consider his 30% on 1.5 attempts per game as shooting 3-pointers better than Nurk. Technically it's better, but that doesn't mean he should be doing it often, so it's basically irrelevant. .308 this se...

What realistic moves would people make if they’re Ishbia and Jones this offseason?
Fire Vogel…
I think Ishbia has to consider firing Jones, too. I think we start hearing rumors that Jones in on the hot seat after the draft.

They have to fire him. Why even keep Vogel on if you're going to force him to completely replace his coaching staff, which would completely undermine and emasculate him?
That's a Sarver move.

I'd be happy to bring in Lue or Bud. Bud's not Greg Popovic, but I think he knows how to run a team with 7 perimeter players.

1. Draft Ware or Messi at 22 2. Sign LeBron for the vet min 3. Sign Kris Dunn at the vet min 4.

Re: The Chris Paul Appreciation Thread

Chris Paul is 38. I appreciate what he did when he was here, but he isn't the future and I still think the trade was a steal.
