You guys are drunk if you think he’s doing anything positive out there

You just need to embrace the bench beast that is The Landale and you'll be a happier man. #LandaleOwnsGlendale #JockJams #JockItch

I think a lot of the time the negatives out weigh the positives, but you can’t say he’s not doing anything positive out there. He’s fairly skilled around the basket, he rebounds, he hustles. He just can’t play defense without fouling and he’s a poor shooter trying to be a stretch big.

You guys need to pay better attention if you think Jock is worthless.
You know Saucy has to have a whipping boy on every Suns team. Landale just happens to be the one on this team.
Yup.

He hustles? That’s his skill?

Just sign any drunk fan out of the crowd. The adrenaline will help them hustle too.

He is God awful. He got blocked twice in a row against OKC in the most pitiful fashion. I have no idea why he plays over Biz and why we chose him over Frank the Tank.

I think Golden State should pursue him in the off-season, Great fit

You just gonna skip over his skill around the basket and his rebounding? Look, I get it, you don’t like him, but we don’t have to pretend like he can’t do anything. He’s shooting 75% at the rim. He’s a much better finisher and scorer than Biyombo. Ya Biyombo is a better defender, but he’s a 0 on offense.

Now I’d prefer we don’t play Landale when the games get real(playoffs), but that’s because I want to play KD at the 5. I think the Jock/Biz duo is fine for the regular season.

Meh, they won’t get minutes when the games really matter and we’re healthy. Also they weren’t the worst players today. I missed the 2nd half but they were fine in the first half. Their box scores seem fine.

Ayton probably loves it. KD hard at work establishing the new Suns culture. Derrick Rose will feel right at home.

It shouldn’t be a secret because it’s irrelevant. Devin Booker drinks tequila and it’s never been brought up as a potential culture issue.

I’m almost positive the diuretic was to mask weed, which shows a pattern of dependence where it is interfering with work and also a really stupid decision

I’m not positive all conjecture on this one but I wouldn’t be surprised if some of the laissez-faire games are because of it.

It’s a substance abuse issue. If Booker showed up to the games drunk or had to be suspended for it, it’s an issue the same.

I was thinking it was to mask an HGH. He seemed just as big in college. And speaking of drunk, remember the PJ Tucker incident?

I don't think you have quite enough evidence to convince a jury here or anything. The guy may smoke some ganja from time to time, but it's far from clear that this is the cause of his sometimes inconsistent play. Also, you're going at the guy after he had a pretty impressive February.

I’m not trying to convince a jury and I’m not one to make claims of knowing things on the inside commonly, but I can say I’m very confident in that first paragraph

If KD can get Ayton to love hoop half as much as he does, Ayton can smoke all the weed in the world, I wouldn't care.
