Has there been a more divisive player in Suns history than Ayton?
We used to have the same kind of discussions about Leandro Barbosa. There were 2 or 3 people who thought he should be an allstar.

Re: 2023 General Offseason/PostSeason League News

As for the Cam vs PJ debate - this whole discussion feels very old fashioned to me. PJ is a "true 4"? Cam is done developing at age 27? Y'all it's 2023.

Re: 2023 General Offseason/PostSeason League News

I agree that the NBA Championship is the de facto World Championship, at least for the foreseeable future. It's just arrogant to call it that, that is until the NBA champion actually plays and beats teams from other leagues. ... I agree with this take. Is it ok for our marketing and sales people to...

Re: 2023 Suns General Offseason/PostSeason News Thread

Anyone else think KD could be our 3rd option this season? Not a knock on his talent, of course, but I think Beal's energy and activity will match Booker's. Those two will lead the offense, and KD will fit in where he needs to. In fact, Beal might be our first true star who can play at Book's pace si...

Re: 2023 General Offseason/PostSeason League News

He wants to play James Harden ball, and combining that with his contract expiring and habit of being unfit or unhealthy for long stretches is making most teams leery of acquiring him. He's at the point of his career where he needs to change to maintain longevity, but we've seen many examples of guy...

Re: 2023 Suns General Offseason/PostSeason News Thread

I'm pretty hyped about this off-season and that video of Metu isn't calming me down. We picked up a bunch of guys with enough skill and competitiveness to thrive playing off of our big 3.

Re: 2023 General Offseason/PostSeason League News

It'll be interesting to see what they get for him. He's still putting up good numbers, but hasn't seemed to buy in to any roster since Mike D coached him in Houston. He's not a leader, he's past his prime, and he hasn't wanted to play in for his last 3 teams. I'm just not sure who would give up a lo...

I really wanted Bamba to be good back in the draft. I bought into the hype about his intelligence and work ethic.

Considering the advertising opportunities he probably has in New York, he has hit the jackpot. Objectively, that's a bad contract, but I'll always rot for the twins. Good for him.
Ooh. That doesn't sound good. You might look into an antibiotic.

Re: 2023 Free Agency Thread

Dunno if it's been said already (I'm way behind on lurking), but I'm happy for Cam Johnson for the deal he got. More $ than Kuzma, more than Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura put together. I'm rooting for him to stay healthy and earn that check. Right now, he isn't better than Kuzma or Reaves. You're...

Re: 2023 General Offseason/PostSeason League News

This league can operate with way lower overhead. One of the problems with the WNBA is that it operates like the NBA with huge arenas, large rosters, suits in the front office, etc. This league can cost a tenth of that.

Re: All Things Ayton

DA did not come out of college as a 4.

That tweet is a microcosm of this whole discussion. Make an excuse for DA that is blatantly not true, retort with sarcasm, then we debate the merits of the retort.

In Ishbia we trust. The crazy thing is that every off-season, his desire to win at all costs is going to make for some amazing off-season excitement for the rest of many of our lives.

Re: 2023 Suns General Offseason/PostSeason News Thread

Pels aren’t trading Murphy…but he’d be fantastic. Based on what we’ve seen the offer would be Valunciunas and Nance. If we could get Herb that would be great Kira Lewis would also be good. What do you see with Kira? I liked him in the draft, but he hasn't really played since his first season.

As long as we are looking at Parker, let's bring in Okafor. See which one gets hurt first in summer workouts.
