lol I was gonna say….. why are we questioning our official NBA lexicon. Solid work Bobster! Thanks, I would have never written a book about the history of the draft except I knew an editor for Scarecrow Press and the draft was one of the things that I had a lot of information about that interested ...

Interesting…weird bbref has it listed the way they do. I guess maybe “Original Sun” has more to do with just being the best player on that initial team..or he did score the first 2 points. No one knows Gary Gregor, gotta twist the facts a tiny bit to make it someone fans care about. I'm sure it has...

The 1968 NBA Draft went down this way - 4/1/68 - 1st round conducted in New York City by conference call 4/1/68 - 1st round choices announced 5/8/68 - Rounds 2-12 conducted in New York City The reason for the early date for the first round was to get an early start in their effort to sign the top pl...

I wonder if we're going to get the G-League Ignite players that are still under contract, or how they're going to set up the initial players for the Valley Suns? The original Suns, I believe, got to pick from a pool of players that were made available from the other teams at the time. Each team cou...

I don’t think any of us really know whether Bronny is an nba player or not…time will tell

Well, there's no convincing evidence that he is so far.

Well, having Allen back will help, but I pretty much agree that I don't expect improvement from the others, except perhaps Bol. Gordon, Okogie, Eubanks and O'Neale are what they are.

After a season of no passion or direction, I like what I saw today.

Summer is officially here.

With all the pick swaps in the future they may have to go the Larry Nance route where they trade a star for multiple rotation players.

Fuckin hell

I don't mind him as the third center, but we all know that's not what we're going to get.

I think Delon Wright will be high on our priority list this summer. I think we'll also look at Spencer Dinwiddie and Russell Westbrook. Is Dinwiddie going to be one of those guys we all wanted for most of his career only to get him on the downside? Well, that's the bargain bin they're shopping in n...

I think the roster is the biggest issue, but Budenholzer is a better fit with the personnel that the Suns have. I think he can get a better offensive product out of this group, but I'm not sure that elevates enough to have a different out in the postseason. Maybe it upgrades them to being able to w...

Bob Myers, please.

People who don't really follow the Suns for the most part think Vogel got shafted, but watching the debacle up close it's obvious he wasn't the answer, even though he's clearly not the only problem. Jones (and Ishba) did a terrible job putting the roster together and the two minimum contract veteran...

Vogel isn't a bad guy but he doesn't seem to be the type to demand excellence from his team. Maybe a second in command with that ability will help. You've heard of good cop, bad cop before, right? Actually I don’t think I’ve heard of good cop, bad cop on NBA coaching staffs. Can you give me some ex...

20/20 hindsight drafts and trades always build championship contenders it seems.

Wolves in four! Wolves in four!

Having time to prepare for one opponent in the playoffs gives the really good defensive teams time to figure out ways to clamp down defensively. I think Denver expected them to play well, but they have to be shocked by this.
