Re: Game Day: Suns (46-18) @ Cavs (21-43), Tues 5/4/21

Biggest OT blowout in Suns history. NBA record is 17. The Suns shattered the OT point spread record though. My data goes back to the 2004-5 season. The biggest road favorite OT cover in those 17 seasons until today was March 15 this year when Milwaukee (-8.5) beat Washington by 11 in OT The biggest...

Re: Game Day: Heat (5-2) @ Suns (5-2), Thurs 11/7/19

The good news is that until about 5 minutes to go it still felt as if we could win this, despite being down the entire game.
I wouldn't be surprised if we were 11-6 by Thanksgiving (which is right before the toughest 13 game stretch of the season and 10 games before Ayton returns)

Re: Predict 2019-20 Suns # of wins

Last year we were last in rebounds and 3rd to last in points allowed. I don't see any of the new players improve our rebounding but if we stay healthy and stop trying to tank we pick up 8 games as a regression to the mean and 8 in sheer offensive upgrades with a much more solid PG and PF situation a...

Re: Awesome News (Kawhi to Clippers)

Looks like it's a done deal that nobody will make an offer to Oubre now that Claw is a Clip and Green is wearing Purple and Gold, so we don't have to worry about unloading more pieces to match offers for him.

Re: Suns News: 2019 Off-Season

There are 2 spots up for grabs...barring a major injury, Clippers, Jazz, Nuggets, and Lakers are locks. Rockets and Blazers should be safe as well. I think Warriors make it as well, but they are on shaky ground. A curry injury would be brutal for them. Thunder are out. They probably move Westbrook....

Which they will promptly blow on Julius Randle.
Randle will be a horrible fit next to Ayton.

And it doesn't seem like there are any takers for Jackson or Warren.

I want to see what this young team can do with Lonzo Ball. I don't feel super optimistic about the Suns lately, but I feel like if you get a game-changing PG anything can be possible. I just want some hope, and I think a new starting PG could give us that.
I couldn't agree more

Re: Suns News: Week 6 11/19-11/25

An interesting article about trading Fultz for Ariza from the Sixers' perspective. Considering how Ariza's spot should be much easier to fill through the draft or trade than the PG spot is (it's been an ongoing saga for - what? 5 years now?) and that we only have Ariza guaranteed for this year I'd b...

Re: Game Day: Spurs (4-2) @ Suns (1-5), Wed 10/31/18

I don't like the Spurs and I don't want them to be good. I don't understand this mentality. I hope they suck. Or better yet, I hope they get mired in mediocrity for the next decade; not bad enough to get a high draft pick that turns the franchise back around, not good enough to do anything past com...

Re: Game Day: Suns (1-3) @ Grizzlies (2-2), Sat 10/27/18

This should be a gritty battle. Maybe not compared to Miami-NY from the Alonzo Mourning days gritty but our Modern NBA version of that. Memphis scored 92 or less in 3 of their first 4 games, a crazy stat in a league where teams average 113 ppg so far, and I'm sure they will try to keep the pace low ...

Re: Mikal Bridges, Welcome to Phoenix!

The big question is, why would philly offer mikal to phoenix in the first place? They liked Zhaire almost as much, so they took the opportunity to pick up an asset. The Sixers indeed liked Zhaire aslmost as much as Mikal. On top of that they needed a major trade asset to acquire a star to add to th...

Good to be back

Hi there! Some of you might remember me from the old site, I certainly remember a lot of you guys (all the way back to even before the old site in the ESPN days), and it's good to be back among like-minded individuals. It's been a tough 8 years as a fan (I think I've been the only one with a Suns li...
