If it's not a player who completely takes Eubanks minutes away from him, I'm not interested

Cooooool another useless wing. I love you James, you're the best GM.
It’s a post buyout market move for a 2-way player…if you were expecting something substantial that’s on you.

That will have to come from someone already on the roster. Thad or Bol

I would expect maybe to not go down a road they've been down before, but ya know Torrey Craig isn't available, sooooo...

You keep doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
Jones and Vogel out, Lue or Lee in, draft Grant Nelson or Tyler Kolek.

Ish Wainwright is the Goran Dragic of Torrey Craigs.

Meh, we’re talking about a 17th man here. I really don’t care who it is. No one was going to matter.

Ish Wainwright.....really? Isn't Roddy a marginally better version of him? Why do we need two of them?

I think the suns plans were always to keep Ish…Portland claimed him when we waived his contract hoping to move him to a 2-way spot…none of this is surprising to me.

Not surprising. He’s not an NBA-level player.

Ish doesn't really help us much, but I am okay with bringing him back. At this point you want anybody in the locker room who goes all-out, plays hard, practices hard, has great team energy and chemistry, great locker room guy. We don't have enough continuity or guys who actually love being here or have any history here. And Wainwright gives us some of that. Welcome back, Ish!

After thinking about it some, I'll amend to say that Ish Wainwright is the Alan Williams of Torrey Craigs.

LOL. I can't imagine anything regarding the Suns this season other than a possible coaching change but I would think that would be unlikely at this point. Probably the Phoenix All-Star game.

Strange article from Bickley. I mostly agree with it until the end when he makes a big U-turn.

It’s time to discard expectations of championship-or-bust for Phoenix Suns

Nothing strange about it. He’s just saying this team sucks, and it does.

Until the end where anything can happen with a little luck.

Did you read until the end?

Well he's not wrong... We all know how injury prone a lot of the top teams stars are and it's possible we could slide in. Denver (Murray), GS (half the roster), Clippers, and especially the Lakers all have players with histories of injuries.
