the suns should do their part and make it look like they are playoff bound first around february.

but knowing mcdo, he'd wouldnt even consider it. he'd blow it again like he did last season with gasol.

I take it you're not a fan of McDonough? Seriously?!?
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

he's not fired yet? signing 3 starting pgs is a good idea + drafting one more?

And he could be right if by guards he means PGs. Who else has three of them with plausible allstar level. GSW has Curry and Livingston, but Klay is a SG. The ability is there, the only issue is making it work together, and things seems to be better on that front lately.

No, he said guards and I believe he meant that. What starting rotation and 3rd guard is better than Phoenix? Parker, Green, Ginobili? Manu has been struggling. Teague, Schroder, Korver? Better than you'd think but Schroder isn't there yet. Curry, Klay, Iggy (he's a SG?)? Maybe. Paul, Reddick, Crawford? Possibly. DeRozan, Lowry, Lou Williams? Maybe.

I'd take our 3 "PGs" against any team's 3 guards I think. All 3 can get to the basket at will. All 3 have a jumper. All 3 can de... just kidding!
Go Suns!

I think we are #3 at worst. GSW can claim to have a better bunch. I love Atlanta's guys (super fan of Korver) but overall I don't believe they are more potent than ours. Toronto could have a case, but DeRozan is struggling with efficiency this year. Parker-Green-Ginobili (plus Mills) is tough as hell and to this day I still would still favor them in any direct matchup against the Spurs, although a whole regular season is a different story.

Jermaine O'neal is like 45. And he lives in Dallas and is a lock to sign with the Mavs. He'll wait until late in the season so that he doesn't have to play much, and then he'll sign with Dallas.

SDC, your call for firing McDo seems as juvenile and silly as Robot and whoever else's vitriol towards Len was.

Eh, Robot's case was that Len was never going to be healthy enough to play and that his college stats didn't warrant being a top 5 draft pick. Can't really fault him for being skeptical on both accounts. He did say that he hoped Len would prove him wrong and I'm sure that he's happy that it's happening.

Not sure what to say about SDC's McDo issues. It could be a myriad of things, but I think it ties directly into the whole Pau Gasol fascination of his. Then you add in the drafting of a PG when your plan was to have the hydra and drafting of a SF when you're fairly stacked at that position as well. Though mostly I think SDC has his pet players he'd like to see acquired and McDo just sucks because he hasn't acquired them.

Haha this made me laugh. I like the fact that he is giving the suns love, but C-Webb is sucha tool. He isn't SHAQ level bad for TNT, but he's close.
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”
