Re: 2024 NBA Draft

Wally might be on the right track with a 2 yr plan for LBJ. As much money as LBJ has, I just can't him, or most anyone, else walking away from $50mil. But I also think LBJ has plans to retire in Cleveland. Think of it as spending $50 million. Actually probably more like $30 million after agent shar...

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

Ah, even more suspect now. And a kid who said "Only draft me if you think I'm worth it", will only work out for 2 teams and not all 30. I get that's how Rich Paul is handling all this, just sucks we're the ones attached to it. So it’s “Only draft me if you think I’m worth it based solely ...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 3 (Conf Finals) News Thread

https://twitter.com/AlexGoldenNBA/status/1794807195533459721 I'm sure the NBA does this for every elimination game when a trophy will be presented to the series winning team. Duh. It just means the league recognizes the possibility of a Celtics win. It doesn’t mean they’re making a prediction.

Re: DONALD TRUMP INDICTED

If Donald Trump is convicted of a felony, people will pay attention. And it sure looks like there's a good chance he will be. Nobody’s going to be influenced by it. Trump supporters will see it as a sign of persecution and vote for him. Trump opponents will see it as validation of their choice to v...

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?

That’s not true…towards the end I mentioned you’d have those picks available to attach to Nurk, Grayson, or Royce at the deadline to upgrade. Also who says they have to be OKC’s own picks? The reason I used them is they have tons of picks. You could get a Utah pick, a Houston pick, a LAC pick, a Mi...

Great defense wins championships.
Defense looks better if your offense is elite.
That goes both ways.

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?

I really don’t like the idea of trading any more unprotected firsts. Not even for multiple 1sts? The chances of that ’31 pick being near the top of draft is significantly greater than the odds of getting something good with one of those late picks from OKC. I get that…if you are done with the curre...

Remember when Vancouver traded for Thorpe with what turned out to be the #2 pick in 2003? They could have drafted Anthony, Bosh, or Wade. Instead they got 47 games of Otis Thorpe.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

The more I think about this scenario the more I think we should steer well clear of it. Haven't we been humiliated enough over the past 3 seasons? Drafting a poorly rated rookie in the hope of bringing in his soon to be 40 year old father feels like we're setting ourselves up for more of the same. ...

I doubt that was really the main / only reason Jones liked and hired Bud.
It’s the one he cited when asked. Either it was a major consideration or he’s lying.

Re: Suns hire Mike Budenholzer as head coach

It does come across as blind optimism sometimes; sure we got swept in first round and our ageing injury-prone big three don’t fit together well and will be a year older next season, and we have no real means to dramatically improve around them, but we are totally a title contender. I don't even loo...
