Re: 2017 NBA Draft Lottery

this latest Lonzo news -- the $500 shoes -- is a Ball buster for me. or, i could say, the 2nd shoe has dropped sure, as usual, this can be blamed on his dad but, he's old enough to man-up and he's not showing the signs if the Suns pick 2nd (and lower than the Lakers), how about switching pick positi...

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Lottery

Sac has the 13th position on the line Tue.

it's a question of balls
less on Tue = more next month

for suns, more balls might = Ball?
more balls for sac might be stretching them thin, however (-;

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Prospect & March Madness Discussion

considering how ignorant and offensive his father's remarks are, has Ball said anything to distance himself from those remarks? In addition to his talent, the Suns would be drafting his marketability.

Lakers beat Spurs!
unfortunately, our last 2 games are against teams that should also be in tank mode

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Prospect & March Madness Discussion

hmm, this article points out that "the Lakers' 2017 and 2019 first-round picks are at stake here": http://finance.yahoo.com/news/lakers-may-had-most-costly-153514035.html so even if moving one draft position doesn't necessarily change who the Suns get, screwing up our division rival's pick...

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Prospect & March Madness Discussion

oooh, the Suns now listed with 2nd worst record (i guess they lose/win the tie-breaker with Lakers?)

imo, i'm not sure if the draft order matters any more between 2nd or 3rd, since I might pass on Ball anyway and there's no clear choice

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Prospect & March Madness Discussion

last nights game diminished Ball and elevated Fox but despite his huge game, i couldn't take him seriously because of his non-NBA body he looks shorter than 6'4 there have been plenty of successful short NBA players i don't recall short AND skinny working out (Pistol Pete is the only one that comes ...

Re: 2017 NBA Draft Prospect & March Madness Discussion

i haven't posted in a long time but had to chime in i haven't seen Booker all year not because the Suns are a losing team that is now a game out of 2nd to last in the league (i heard their record is deceptive) i'd still watch most of the games if they were on broadcast tv but i happily cut my cable ...

Re: Steve Nash to be inducted into the Suns Ring of Honor

glad to see Nash getting his due here, but, wtf! first he went to our arch enemy in LA. (granted as it turned out he was a trojan horse) but now he's joining the Warriors coaching staff to train their guards! that's the last thing we need is one of the greatest point guards of all-time making Curry ...

Re: OT: Mark Cuban cracks me up

there is an irony in seeing Cuban get shut out on this negotiation. If you watch Cuban on Shark Tank, you know that on numerous occasions he pissed off the other "sharks" by telling the person seeking an investment that if they want to deal with him they must, "accept his offer now wi...

Re: Game Day: Spurs (35-23) @ Suns (31-28), Sat 2/28/15

There are fans from all over the place in Phoenix, because everyone here is from somewhere else. indeed, no "big surprise". that's always been the case here. but that is the case in LA as well (i lived there for 5 years) and what i heard on radio was a record low for suns support/disrespe...

Re: Game Day: Spurs (35-23) @ Suns (31-28), Sat 2/28/15

the over priced seats, corporate seats, etc.. is a significant problem but these days it is a constant one as i said, focused on the sound via radio this game was particularly annoying, not because fans were booing the suns or not cheering loud enough. as many have said, the fans are entitled to exp...

Re: Game Day: Spurs (35-23) @ Suns (31-28), Sat 2/28/15

Markieff's complaint is valid, though he didn't express it intelligently. i listened to the game on radio a couple of minutes into it and i wasn't sure if they were home or away for at least 10 minutes. there was too many cheers for spurs baskets and not enough for the suns. it really pissed me off....

Re: Goran Dragic Trade Watch

it's been 5 or 6 years since i've posted, but on this epic day i had to chime in... this is the way i resolve the trades in my mind: 1. we (effectively) switched dragic for knight - both will demand more money next season knight, significantly less, and he is younger with more long term upside poten...
