Re: Game Day: Suns (14-13) @ Kings (16-10), Fri 12/22/23

I don't understand how Vogel has seemingly lost this team. And I don't understand how a team with Booker and KD on it doesn't hold itself more accountable. Some of the mistakes and inconsistent effort is something you wouldn't see at the high school level.

Re: Suns Trade Options

Even if he's found innocent of this latest assault, the guy hasn't exactly been a model citizen prior beforehand. So absolutely no on Porter for me.

Re: Suns Trade Options

With the exception of Bol, if I were the Suns, I don't think I would be in a rush to trade most anyone on the roster in these realistic scenarios. Of course, if there's some great heist you go for it, but but I think realistically I like what we have more than what I think we could realistically get...

Re: Game Day (IST): Suns (12-8) @ Lakers (12-9), Tues 12/5/23

Tourney game with playoff-like atmosphere against LeBron and the Lakers? Gotta expect the refs to pull some kinda sh*t. Generally don't care about the tourney, wanted to see us matchup against a full Lakers squad and last night was what I was afraid of. Lakers might not be a great team but they're ...

Re: Around the League: Week 7 (12/4 - 12/10)

I'm probably blinded by my Suns colored glasses, but I think Booker is better than Tatum and Luka. And I think if you offered a straight up swap of Booker for Tatum or Luka, Dallas makes that trade in an instant. Boston at least thinks about it.

Re: 20 Game Check-In

I think if we hadn't blown some weird games (the 2 against the Lakers and the 2 against SA in particular), I would have given an A. But it's a B for me right now. Injuries have been frustrating, but I like what I'm seeing most of the time, and I think there's room for improvement.

Re: Game Day: Warriors (7-8) @ Suns (8-6), Weds 11/22/23

I know it's "good" for the Suns, but Scott Foster is the worst. He's the new Joey Crawford. And how the league continues to allow him to ref games Chris Paul is involved in is just dumb.

Re: Suns News: Week 5 (11/20 - 11/26)

I enjoyed the back and forth between Booker and KD near the end of the game. Just those two passing it back and forth several times while the Jazz kept scrambling to keep them both covered. It almost made me tired for the Jazz. The Jazz completely couldn't figure out how to keep KD from getting gua...

I really like https://www.basketballintelligence.net/ for sort of helping aggregate Suns stories and Around the League stories. Whoever puts that site together is doing a ton of work finding ALL the basketball stories out there.

Re: Game Day (In-Season Tournament): Trail Blazers (3-10) @ Suns (7-6), Tues 11/21/23

I don't think there's any reason to boo him, and he was a central figure in one of the greatest plays in Suns history (in my opinion) and a key player in a finals run. It just didn't work out and there's probably some blame to find on both ends. We got a good return on him, he hasn't really bad-mout...

To me, it seems like he was trying to avoid a jump ball? Maybe a bit reckless, but I don't think dirty.

That's really terrible, and he was off to a great start this season. I hope he recovers quickly.
