Haha. Krispy Kreme? Bosa? What’s your poison?

I live in the west valley and have been here since 2002. I was born and raised in San Jose, California, so I am confident it will come as a huge disappointment to all of you that I also cheer for the Warriors lol. I was always just a casual fan up until the SSOL day, where it became a huge passion of mine. I absolutely love to follow the team, and am extremely optimistic about this coming season.

You’re a Warriors fan as well? For as long as I have lurked this board, I’m surprised I did not pick up on that lol. Awesome stuff. Thanks for the warm welcome!

How did we not out muscle Washington for Beal? We got him for CP3 and 2nd round picks…and they took Shamet and had to throw in Goodwin
We did have the fortune of Beal having a NTC, which allowed him to dictate where he wanted to go and what pieces he got traded for. I definitely think we sold the farm for KD, but Ishbia seemed determined to make a major splash after just becoming our owner by any means necessary. The Ayton trade is what it is. His trade value simply wasn’t there and our front office took what was offered for him. If nothing else, this team’s depth only further improved which was already looking solid after free agency.

Also, hello everyone. I have been lurking this board for a while and you all provide such tremendous insight on our team. Looking forward to discussing Suns basketball with all of you.
Welcome!

Reasons we won't miss Ayton.

Man those plays made me cackle like the Joker when they'd happen. So much pain but objectively funny to watch.

You guys are just asking for it. Now JeremyG is going to post a supercut of both of DA's good plays from the 2023 season.

I think Ayton's issue a lot of times is he wants to spend time thinking about what he's going to do instead of going with instinct, muscle memory, reflex, or whatever you want to call it. 99.99% of players in the NBA would have dunked the ball in the first video without a thought. Ayton does fine with set plays when he is in position, such as dunking the ball on an inbounds pass. Freelancing is outside his abilities.

That's exactly right. He has very little "feel" for the game.

I only see red when speaking of Ayton. So yes, I absolutely missed it.

It would be nice if the Hayters such as Mike could at least get their facts straight. 2.5 FTA/G would require either a new career low from Ayton per minute or very low minutes per game. He averaged 3.0 in only 30 minutes this last season.

He’s had 3 seasons at 2.5 or lower
