Re: Frank Vogel hired as new Coach

They've predictably stated Vogel was the first option and it's likely none of us will ever really know for sure. I have to give Ishbones some credit for the moves. I really like how the coaching staff is turning out, and parting with Monty looks like the right choice now. Will Young have the same ty...

Re: 2023 Suns General Offseason/PostSeason News Thread

I think there's a decent chance Paul would sign with the Lakers if he's waived, and it wouldn't upset me too much.

Re: 2023 Playoffs: The NBA Finals News Thread

Gutsy performance by the Heat to get the first win in Denver by any opponent in these playoffs. I guess they're going to stick with zone defense as long as the Nuggets shooters aren't going to be consistent enough to break it.

Re: How Would You Rebuild the Suns?

I want nothing to do with Marvin Bagley. Maybe he’d be fine enough from Nov-March, but I can’t trust him in real games that matter. Better off just avoiding that kind of guy all together. The proposal was to trade Shamet for him; I don't see why you wouldn't do that. I also think your too quick to ...

I don’t think there’s a trick to finding healthy players. It’s just luck. Full stop.

Are you sure the new CBA stuff will be relevant this summer? They haven’t even signed the deal yet.

Re: Frank Vogel hired as new Coach

After a day of contemplation, I think the odds are in favor of Kevin Young joining Monty in Detroit.

I have a feeling Vogel wants his own people and the impression I’m getting is that Ishbia has more to do with this hire than Jones.

If Vogel is a defensive wizard, we need to get him offensive players, not defenders.
They just need smart players who go hard. Offense or defense, it doesn't matter.

Re: How Would You Rebuild the Suns?

Or maybe Vucevic is a guy the Suns are looking at to replace Ayton. He played under Vogel in Orlando.

I can't imagine James Jones signing Christian Wood as a free agent regardless of the coach.

Re: How Would You Rebuild the Suns?

OK, bad deal. :lol:

All I want to know is how it could be possible to get DeRozan and Caruso on the Suns for Ayton and whatever else.

Re: Frank Vogel hired as new Coach

Let’s bring it back to Vogel…what do we know about him? He took the PG pacers to the conference finals twice? Won the 2020 title with the Lakers. That’s a pretty good resume. Known for having a solid defense. Not always the best offense. It is kinda funny that he was the backup option in LA to Mont...

Re: Frank Vogel hired as new Coach

Every thread turns into an Ayton debate. I'm over it. I'm sorry I even responded. LOL. Don't sweat it. I posted weeks ago that Ayton will be one of the first topics brought up to the new coach. We all know none of us are changing our minds about him, so lets just try to read between the lines of Vo...

Re: How Would You Rebuild the Suns?

Bertans' deal has 2 years left. It's not all that terrible for a tanking/rebuilding team, which is what this kind of move would indicate. THJ, maybe you're right. Ball isn't coming back anytime soon, so maybe they'd completely clean house. The 2025 free agent class is pretty good, and they could be ...

Re: 2023 Playoffs: The NBA Finals News Thread

They went 29-5 from 1/23(When Middleton returned) until they shut it down with 2 games to go. Oh, I know. I bet on them to win the title. They also beat up on a lot of bad teams during that stretch you mentioned. I watched a lot of their games mostly because Jrue and Middleton were on my fantasy te...
