Re: 2018 Phoenix Suns Pick Watch

It won't be the end of the world if the Suns fall to 6. There is some tremendous talent available, but I am irrationally confident that the Suns finally win the lottery this year. I want to see this group grow and compete before the off-season. A suns fan would say that. A fan of a team that has co...

yes. and i'd rather him than a few others. he's probably not enough to entice the Lebron move.

Re: Around the League: Week 19 2/19-2/25

yes, ss, everyone, including the player's are aware of all the many obvious ways that teams tank.
it's nice that you want to get all George Washington about it and bring tanking out in the open
but it's a whole bunch of illusions that keeps us watching the bouncing ball

i want to know what the true nature of his problem with the spurs is before i'd give up anything for him

"In the savviest of moves, the Magic and Knicks respectively traded Elfrid Payton and Willy Hernangomez to the Suns and Hornets, making moves that brought back future assets, weakened their rosters and possibly improved their fellow tanking competitors. https://sports.yahoo.com/nba-tanking-guid...

Things are not going well for Dallas atm. Cuban was just fined for his comments on tanking. What did he say? he told players tanking was their best option 600k is an awfully large penalty for speaking what many teams are obviously thinking every year but being professional and responsible is the ro...

Re: Game Day: Suns (18-40) @ Jazz (29-28), Wed 2/14/18

he is an asset that we have mismanaged. I would have preferred to sign him, start him, play him big minutes this year. And then if we still wanted to draft a stud center, fine, trade Len. I bet he would have gotten some interest if he'd played starters' minutes. that's my take. he does alternately ...

Re: Remainder of Season wish list

the problem with putting Chandler on ice is they'd have to play Len more and they've been conservative with him because they either don't think he'll stay or think he might and they'd like to pay less. but, indeed, play the hell out of the player's we need to evaluate whether they deserve the minute...

Re: Around the League: Week 18 2/12-2/18

excellent Split looks like suns, hawks, knicks with a slight edge, based on less tanker games (1 tanker comes out with a W) playoff lock games are 2nd worst, but only if they're not vying for playoff position or are coached by Popovich playoff hopeful are obviously ideal, and the Grizz have a dozen ...

Re: Suns Coach 2018-19

Len is having a much better season than Chandler. Len isn't getting minutes because we know he's leaving and the well is poisoned. If we had signed Len to a contract, he'd likely be getting more consistent minutes and putting up better numbers. that's how i see it. if he started all year, he'd be a...

7 teams within 1 game of worst record.

so why are the suns the laughing stock?

Re: Around the League: Week 17 2/5-2/11

if we had gotten the 2nd pick, the suns would probably have taken him
and if dad is busting Magic and the Lakers' balls, he would have stomped on the suns
and, again, it all reflects really bad on Lonzo for not correcting him

if they want all 3 sons to play together, it'll have to be in Lithuania
