Re: Suns sign Eric Gordon

[...] If any of these minimum guys "break out" it means the Suns are in the Finals at a minimum , and at that point, it's completely worth the cost of losing them in the Summer. This might be optimistic, but I do like that approach. My point is Bruce Brown doesn't get $20M/year if the Nug...

Re: Suns sign Eric Gordon

[...] But back to the Suns, setting the part-timer aside, I think it may be an issue having nearly the entire roster made up of one-year deal guys. That can be tricky because are they going to fully buy-in to concepts that may not play into how they want to market themselves for their next deal. [....

Re: 2023 Suns General Offseason/PostSeason News Thread

I don't disagree with much of what you're saying. I do worry that we are placing a lot of confidence in a guy (Durant) who has proven to be even less reliable than Paul when it comes to staying on the court over the past 3 years. Sure he and Book will create their own offense but if Durant goes dow...

Perhaps the PG we’re waiting for is Kyle Lowry.
He is so washed.
I haven't watched all games, but from what I've seen, he looked at least decent in the finals.

We got fleeced. I really like KD on this team, but we gave up too much. So I vote "Yes" it was a mistake.
I feel the same way, even though I don't think it was a true mistake.

Re: THE PLAYOFF PUSH

It is too cool that we are in the position we are in. Honestly, there were many seasons where I thought the suns could overachieve and play above expectations. This wasn't one of them and from paper they overachieved a lot. I don't know how serious Dragic's injury is. Normally I am not a fan of rest...
