Suns News: The Offseason
Re: Suns News: The Offseason
I still give Watson a pass. We have been obviously trying to lose games since we sat half the starters for half the season, even though there was nothing wrong with them. The rookies got a ton of minutes, I didn't hear about any tantrums in the locker room and nobody got arrested. I haven't heard about him and management butting heads. The players love the guy and play hard for him.
Is he a great X and O's guy? I don't know. Are we calling and executing the right plays? That all seems so subjective to me. I think he is doing exactly what he is supposed to be doing. Could somebody do it better? There is always somebody better. I think he fits the need we have right now. In a couple years when Booker etc. are starting to hit their prime, Watson will probably be gone. It's rare for any Suns coach to last more than a few years.
I give Watson a B+

I do not. He's never broken a story from what I can tell. I think he's just a fan like the rest of us.bajanguy008 wrote:I not sure who is responsible for this Twitter Handle , maybe Carey knows ?

Re: Suns News: The Offseason
I saw this on another board regarding the Josh Jackson 6'10.5" rumor:
The 6'10.5" rumor came from a radio interview. It was Jackson, Henry Giles, and another rookie being interviewed at the same time. Anyways, Henry Giles said he had grown to 6'10.5" and whoever started the rumor was listening to the interview and thought that it was Jackson talking.
"Be Legendary."
Re: Suns News: The Offseason
Yeah, it was a silly mistake that is thought of as fact now. Too bad, since we are going to hear and read about Jackson growing to 6'10.5" many times prior to the season and as it starts.Superbone wrote:I saw this on another board regarding the Josh Jackson 6'10.5" rumor:

I saw this news and I thought this is an excellent signing. Peter Jok was one of the best shooters in college basketball last year. He improved every year, was a pretty decent passer and defender.

He doesn't seem like a guy with a great sense of humor. But with this signing, it's clear that McDo can take a Jok.
