Got you covered, Cap.
Pax vobiscum.

Wow, Cap. Really sorry to hear that. Hoping for the best for your dad. Hang in there.

Thoughts and prayers Cap. Life has a way of throwing tragedy our way when we least expect it. I've had a rash of them lately. Sending you and your family my thoughts and love for the best outcome possible, all things considered.

I could be wrong but weren't there crazy folks around these parts that favored trading JJ for a year of Kyrie? How's that thought process sitting with you now? Knew the kid would be a stud.

Great job winning a game we absolutely had to lose.

*slow clap*

Then again, we'd find a way to !@#$ up a #1 draft pick anyway.

Good luck to your father, cap. MY thoughts are with you two.

If it weren't based on luck, I'd be right there with you. Unfortunately, there isn't anything the Suns can do on the court to guarantee the #1 pick. Even if they had the best odds, they could still get the #4 pick.

The guys have to play with some pride. I'm glad they were determined not to be the only team in Suns history to go a month without a win.

I think they would have been the only team in NBA history to go all of February without a win, not just Suns history.

Philadelphia went 0-11 in February, 2014

Then I shunt the blame of my error onto the Grizz broadcasters. #FakeNews

Maybe it was true for both the Suns and the Grizz, and that is what they meant to say.

Yeah, one game scoring 29 points against the worst team in the league doesn’t change anything. Come talk to me when Jackson is a top 5 player at his position.

It was for 2 years (maybe 3 since he has a player option) and his bird rights. You can be really happy with how Josh has played the last 20 games, and really be hopeful for his future, but it would be silly to say that his impact on our team for the next 2-3 years is comparable to what Kyrie would give us.

And this is coming from a guy that is ecstatic I don't have to root for a guy that believes the earth is a flat disk...

Let's not start the kyrie debate again, we all know where everyone stands, no one's mind is being changed.

The Suns broadcast mentioned an 0 fer month by a team but I don't think it was as recent as 2014. Congrats to Memphis for achieving it.

Did he specify it was a disk? Good for Irving for not falling for group think. He's a real individual thinker, that one.

I'm just surprised there aren't more winless Februarys since there are usually less regular season games scheduled because of the All-Star break.

October is a month where some years they played a full schedule, some they played only a couple of games, depended on how late the season stated.

Agreed.
