Seriously thanks. The more the better. I come to read them here every time. Just no Emo Mcgavinsauce or Cheesy McButters tweets.

The Suns only have one more three day break after this the rest of the season.

While I agree they have more picks than they need, I think you're not giving them enough credit.djy2j wrote: ↑Sat Apr 03, 2021 7:46 amTwo bright spots for a franchise who looks like they will be terrible for years to come. Shai will eventually get tired of losing. It'd be different if they were losing when he got there but since he's already made playoffs that patience for rebuilding won't last as long. I get collecting assets but having like 34 draft picks over the next several years is absolute overkill. No way they can package all or even most of those into something more valuable. It'll create a revolving door of players each season. Hard to establish any sort of winning culture like that. Best of luck to them as a small market team. They will need it.LazarusLong wrote: ↑Sat Apr 03, 2021 7:03 amSome hope for OKC:
Theo Maledon and Aleksej Pokusevski combined for 53 of the Thunder’s 103 points. Maledon had 33 and Pokusevski had 20. They became the first pair of NBA teammates under 20 years old to both score at least 20 points in the same game.
This is a franchise that was supposed to have the worst team in the league. They field a team filled with teens/projects/G-Leaguers. And yet they are 2.5 games out of the play-in tournament. They have been competitive for most of the season and have some very impressive wins.
Last night they played without SGA, Horford, and Dort. Those are essentially their three best players.
Long-story-short, I think they're in a good position.

Of course, Horford will never play for them again.

That's the plan, but it is easier said than done. It's going to be difficult to find a deal for him, and I'm not sure how much of his salary he is going to be willing to give up in a buyout.

Wow
Split really nailed the game preview lol
Good to see that kind of showing from the team. Solid by DA, keeping the long athletic Brown off the boards
I personally enjoyed Jevon highlight, was wondering if it might be a bad case of Deja Vu for Ty as I'm just guessing it happened in practice

Two games in a row the Suns execute a lob to Ayton on the first play. I love it.

Indeed. The booker ayton pnr is also looking better , resulting in several nice lobs. Great to watch. Booker disguises them well also

Ya Booker never used to throw those...and Ayton was usually not ready for him. Seems like something we’ve specifically focused on recently.
