I could do without Plums and Christimas on the roster. Would rather give the minutes to our younger guys and projects.

Curry, Plumlee, Harris... Does Stockton have a brother?

Steve Stockton. University of Washington standout.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Uncle Steve's a little old. David Stockton has three brothers. Older brother Michael plays in Germany.

I'm a fan of Seth Curry. Would prefer him over Christmas to make the squad.
Go Suns!

I'd rather Christmas TBH, Curry is an undersized 2, we have enough pint sized dudes at the G spot.

All-ACC at Duke, but other than the last name he's a nobody. PG size w/o PG skills.

I like him. He averaged 20 ppg in the D-League last year on 45% and 38% splits. Also 5.7 assists. He's a a combo guard but he can definitely pass. He's not his brother but I think he's crafty and he plays smart. I understand why one wouldn't be interested in him tho.

He does have a sweet stroke.

That's just not true.

He also has Steph's step-back jumper.

He is plenty skilled, just not as quick or tall as he needs to be.

He couldn't stick with the Warriors even with the pull of his brother.

I was wondering who Stauskas reminded me of.....

(if that doesn't bring INF in for, at least, a cameo.....)

Suns trying new "soft court" for Summer League Games
by Josh Johnson azsunnewssports.com

The Suns are experimenting with a 'soft court' this off-season for Summer League games. The hope is this court will prevent further injuries to Suns players specifically Alex Len who is expected to shatter a femur upon making a post move . "I hope that my bones don't shatter during any early games or pre-season. I would like to play 4-20 games next season" laughed Len from an exoskeleton purchased at a manga shop "This is the Smile Slayer 2009 EXO hi - I bought it at a manga shop in Tokyo last year while on vacation - it keeps my body from physically making contact with anything thus keeping it from fracturing, rupturing, tearing or breaking down " The suit could not be worn during games but Len is hoping to sport the helmet while sitting on the bench next year "If it could only transform into a car, that would be really great" said Len.

The soft court will impede the dribbling of basketballs so will likely only be used in games when Len is playing - it's also a great surface for nap or snack times. "Some of the guys call me the Cookie Monster - I love cookies quite a bit" noted Len, offering a smile. Len was the the fifth draft pick in last years NBA draft.

Sounds weird - I don't get why we would have a soft court? Seems like a big investment. I wonder?
