Orlando fans on suicide watch.

Edit: not really, although the value for PHX is insane.

Not bad. He can't shoot, but he can pass and defend. We get to try him out for a few months and see if we want to re-sign. All for one of our 4 2nd round picks.

53/37/63 splits right now. The FT percent is telling but the rest isn't too bad.

Didn't realize he's shooting 37% from 3. That's pretty good. Admittedly I haven't followed him much this year, but this is a really solid trade. We used the 2nd round pick we got from Memphis for taking Daniels massive 2 years 3 million dollar contract.

Of course. How else is he going to go so cheap otherwise.

I like it! Now somebody hold him while I lop off that doodad on the top front of his forehead.

Don't get too excited. It's on less than 2 attempts per game.

How long until Josh Jackson’s hair and Payton’s hair fight to death? Who will win? There can only be one. *highlander music plays*

I do hope we can still be pretty shitty to stay in the top 5 for the draft.

Not sure this is the best place, but https://www.prosportstransactions.com/b ... e/Suns.htm says it isn't expected to transfer this year. Am I missing something?
