Re: Game Day: Grizzlies (34-23) @ Suns (14-44), Sat 2/27/16

My motivation to talk about the team is severely lacking atm. There's really not much joy in anything Suns for me right now. Even the one ray of sunshine we had in Booker has been spoiled with him hitting the rookie wall so hard. Right now I'm focused squarely on May 17th. In a little less than 3 m...

Re: College Basketball: 2015-2016

I wouldn't hate picking skal as much now that we have a second lottery pick, but I still wouldn't like it. He's been pretty awful this year and hopefully stays in school.

Re: Suns News: Week 18 2/22-2/28

Crazy how big a waste of talent Beasley was. He was unbelievable in college. Has there been a bigger non injury bust in the last 10 years? It's probably the biggest bust of the last generation or so. Beasley was dominant in college. Anthony Bennett? Hasheem Thabeet? Darko Milicic? Bennett and thabe...

Two guys to keep an eye on, Dejounte Murray and Marquese Chriss. Both are freshman from washington. I haven't seen enough of them yet, but both are intriguing. Murray is an athletic combo pg in the Westbrook mold listed at 6'5 170. Chriss is an athletic face up 4 listed at 6'9 225. Chriss is averagi...

Re: Game Day: Suns (14-42) @ Clippers (36-19), Mon 2/22/16

I haven't watched enough of Ingram. At this point, I prefer both Simmons and Bender. The word on Bender is that he's got a motor that doesn't quit - frankly, IMO, that's the biggest thing we're missing. The only rotation player with a great motor is PJ, who has his (obvious) limitations. We need on...

Re: Trade Deadline 2016

I go back and forth on tj, I wasn't very high on him when we drafted him, but he's showed me some things this year that give me hope. As many have said, he cuts well and finds ways to score when plays aren't run for him. I think his outside shot shows promise. He was around 40% from 3 this year if I...

Ya, Ben Simmons is being talked about as the best college freshman since Durant. It's died down a little, probably cuz like Carey said, lsu isn't very good. If Simmons had gone to Duke or Kentucky, he'd be all over ESPN. I'll be thrilled if we land a top two pick, Simmons and Ingram will be all sta...

Re: Around the League: Week 18 2/22-2/28

OKC could beat GS, I don't think they will, but they could. And I actually think Toronto is better than Cleveland. Playoffs may be a different story as Lebron will probably up his game, but if he's not able to, I think Toronto comes out of the east. As much as it pains me to say it I think Clevelan...

Re: College Basketball: 2015-2016

I'll need to start looking at prospects in the mid first round now. Not sure on those prospects. However, I think there comes a time when you can have too much youth. Inexperience might be a better word. I wouldn't mind packaging say Knight and our two later picks for a more established youngster. N...

Re: TRADE DEADLINE 2016

OMG. I would trade *anything* on our roster for Rubio, maybe even Booker. I'd prefer to keep Booker, of course, because a Rubio-Booker backcourt would be phenomenal. But wow. If Ricky is available, I think he's one of the best young PGs in the league. If we are tired of ballhogging chucker PGs, Rub...

Re: NBA All-Star Weekend 2016

That seated dunk by Aaron Gordon has to be one of the best I've ever seen. Wow. Best dunk I have ever seen period. Did he push down on the ball to elevate? He was up so high. You gotta think Aaron Gordon would make quite the high jumper. Give him some technique training and he'd go over 7 foot easy...

Aaron Gordon would be a dream come true. Not sure why Orlando would have any interest in trading him though.

Re: Poll: Just Tank or Rebuild/Blow up Roster?

no reason to completely blow up the team now. We're going to be bad regardless if we trade knight/Chandler/Bledsoe. Honestly, there really isn't any reason to rush into trading anyone. We all want Markieff gone but his value has been at an all time low. If he keeps up his improved play, we might get...

Re: Game Day: Rockets (26-25) @ Suns (14-36), Thurs 2/4/16

Only the draft has been a bright spot. 1. The draft has been excellent by anyone's standards I'm still trying to understand why everyone herald's McD's drafting. Has he picked any player that was unexpected and this said player performed well beyond anyone's expectations? It's almost like he printe...
