Christian Wood might be on a different time by the time that game comes up.

I think of the rotating jerseys as Suns historical time stamps. For the most part you can tell the year from the jersey. I don’t buy Suns merchandise every year at all. I think it’s cool to go to a game wearing a jersey from decades ago. I did buy a Valley T-shirt. I may have to buy something this year because I feel more than ever it is going to be pretty magical and having a jersey from this particular year will be a keepsake if it goes to plan if you know what I mean.

That's got to be trolling, I think he's a fairly well known football player for the NY Giants and former Raider (I don't really follow football).

Another one that popped up on my timeline more than once
What happens when you add a past All Star to a current starting lineup ??

I think I'd rather have Amare than Nash for this teams build. Beal, Booker, KD, Nuric and Amare... that would be fun.

Ahhh
Interesting thought, all the Ring of Honor chatter and I still didn't even consider such but guess I was all focused on the tweet :D

Also figured Wade was clearly missing but then I was like Jimmy, Bam..... 😬🤷‍♂️
Oh right lol

X2

For that particular lineup, Shawn Marion fills all the gaps: Rebounding, Point of attack on defense, 100% switchable player, elite defender either on the perimeter or as four, that’s still pretty capable to bang with light PF, respectable 3pt range… all of that wrapped in enough size to put him as a 3 or even at the four again.

Nash or Amare would just turn the offense into something absolutely unstoppable, but with a great deal of pain added on defense.

And at some point adding more offense has diminishing returns. Amare, Nash, or Barkley would obviously help, but I think what Marion brings would be more needed and result in a better team.

Hard to argue against Nash leading that attack but feels like 80s Denver team on steroids at that point.

Love me some Matrix but was he really that good at point of attack defense? Thought his superpower was more to defend up a position than down.

Micheal Finley would be my choice, just because I think he's swell.
Jones and Vogel gotta go.

He did good against Iso style pg’s that went to the rim(Tony Parker). I’m not sure there were a lot of modern pull-up 3 style pg’s when he played. The biggest one was his teammate. I think he’d defend the Ja’s and Foxes of the league well. I’m not sure about Steph or Dame. He was pretty good at recovering and contesting from behind though.

Being able to shoot 40% from 3 will take you a long ways in the nba. Niang has been over 40% every year he’s actually taken 3s(last 5). He was 1/16 combined in his first 2 years.
