So glad we mostly sat things out from a major free agent signing standpoint last year.

Re: Suns News: The Offseason

Am I the only one that could talk themselves into being ok with Love for 4? Never. With love playing in front of Chriss/Bender, that would essentially mean we threw away two years to grab a medium range star who really doesn't move the needle for us. Where are we with a Bledsoe/Booker/Love core? 7-...

Re: Around the League: The Offseason

All this being said, the Celtics can almost certainly one-up us when it comes to any offer. So that sucks.

Re: Around the League: The Offseason

Well you start with Knight and work up. I think the 4 pick is a legit starting point. They'd have a shot at Fox, Tatum or Jackson and at 8 could take Markkanen. Word is the Knicks really covet Jackson. If he is available at #4, I would approach them with a Bledsoe/#4/Bender/future Pick for Porzingi...

Re: 2017 Suns NBA Draft (4th, 32nd, 54th)

If you draft DSJ you better believe he's a star. He's a ball dominant, offense runs through him pg in the Westbrook, Rose, Francis, Marbury mold. If he's Rose or Westbrook it might work, but if he's Francis or Marbury, I think you've got a 6 seed ceiling unless you have an Anthony Davis/KAT level b...

Re: 2017 Suns NBA Draft (4th, 32nd, 54th)

The more I think about this draft, the more convinced I become that we should take a swing at the fences and draft DSJ. This is assuming, of course, that top 3 remains Fultz, Ball, and Jackson in some order. If DSJ played on a team even a quarter as talented as Kentucky, I think we would be talking...

Re: 2017 Suns NBA Draft (4th, 32nd, 54th)

To clarify, my big board (not taking into account any team needs) goes as follows: 1) Fultz 2) Ball 3) Jackson 4) Isaac 5) DSJ 6) Monk 7) Tatum 8) Fox 9) Lauri 10) Nitilikina I think Isaac is a better prospect than DSJ, but you can't draft him the year after drafting both Chriss and Bender. It's ju...

Re: 2017 Suns NBA Draft (4th, 32nd, 54th)

Isaac seems to fill more holes for us than Jackson. Every write up of Jackson I read seems to say, "he is really great, except for these 9 worrisome things." All the ones for Isaac are the exact opposite; "He is a good player, and here are all of the things he can do better than most...

Re: 2017 Suns NBA Draft (4th, 32nd, 54th)

We shouldn't trade the pick. No more shortcuts. We have lots of great options at 4. I am sad that we didn't get the #1, but I don't think the difference between 2-6 in this draft is all that big. There is a good chance Jackson falls to us, which would be ideal. If not, it will likely come down to Fo...

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Lottery

I'm going to utter blasphemy.... If we don't get the first or second pick, I'd rather trade down and get Lauri Markkanen at 7-10. Jackson and Tatum's s*** 3 point shooting, and Monk's lack of passing ability are all the things that are already killing this team. We need distributors and shooters mo...

Re: Game Day: Thunder (45-33) @ Suns (22-57), Fri 4/7/17

The Thunder love picking up players who can't shoot, who they think they can teach to shoot, but who never make ANY progress in actually learning to shoot.
