Cheap ass owner.

Hard to knock a guy for trying.

Of course not. He was being sarcastic. (As was I.)

I know.. I was backing ya'll up

Oh, good! Let's just hope he learns from his mistakes. I'd have to think that's a painful experience. Even for a billionaire. So far, so good. We seem to be on a decent path.

Who doesn't love a redemption story?

I don't know how our owner/FO/coach can spit out all the cliches about grit and playing hard and hustle and then be like "yea, we're signing Ben Simmons".

Yeah it's not true

I don't know. Maybe they think he'll help defensively:

I've always wanted Ben SImmons to pull a Grant Hill and have a great second half of his career but just feel if that was going to happen, it would have happened by now and afraid to add him to the team. RIP Joe Proski

Proski is still alive at 86. Just making sure everybody is aware.

LOL, my bad... well, RIP in the sense he's no longer a Suns trainer.

Ha! Good one, Gambo.

Maybe we should stop with the "3 players, 1 ball" pics.

1 ball, 3 guys, low T, makes sense now.

Gambo poo poos Brogdon and Payne:

I think Giddey would be good here…I don’t think Chicago really wants to lose him though…they are just trying to get him cheaper.

Kuminga is more of a question mark, but someone I’d take a shot on if the price is reasonable. I think he’s probably not a winning player, but he’s young and you never know.

Why do I feel like, half way through the coming season, we're going to be going...'WTF didn't we trade for Giddey???'

I also have to ask...WTF is our aversion to GOOD PGs? Damn it...

If that happens I promise I'll be chill and not annoying about it

OH, and Ben Simmons is WASHED...NOOOOO....

I don’t think the problem is unwillingness…you have to get Chicago to want to trade him. What do we have that they want?

And for good measure...

John, buddy, pal...you're full of crap. No way we wouldn't be way the hell better off w/a real PG...especially w/his numbers! AND we'd be more fun to watch! Don't forget to pick up a dozen eggs and toothpicks next time you're in the grocery store...and really apply yourself and do unto that dozen eggs exactly as you should for NOT wanting a 14/7/8 guy for the team!

Giddey and Booker both had the same numbers as a PG 7apg and 3to per game. Rather try and see what Green can do with a good perimeter player than pay 30m for a guy that does the same thing Booker does.
