The only silver lining from all of that is hopefully more minutes for the younger players and more losses.
The way the Suns have been in recent times though well probably end up picking 5th in the draft and making a mess of any other trades in summer.

Absolutely hollow win when the rooks play close to on 10 minutes combined!!
Anyone want to share what benifit we got from this?
2 game swing away from the 76ers and nothing of note from the first years......I just don't get what we are trying to achieve sometimes.

I'm glad that overall we are being competitive and starting to play the young ones some minutes. Best case scenario, get experience while not being blown out and knowing your progressing. Continue.

Good luck guys.

Got to start getting the young ones involved in that second team. DNP in this year is difficult to take when we are more or less accepting it is a building year. Loving that TJ has turned a lot of heads and is seen as a potential running make of Booker into the future, so many wrote him off last yea...

Let's hope Chis is feeling better and that the Dragon unleashes himself.
I'm loving how they are playing so far this year so a run to the final will do nothing but good.

Good signing. Don't understand some people being surprised at this as McD said they would be signing a vet 3/4 to play a year or two to help the new guys, here one is who loves Phx and as many have said will be a big help in the locker room, will be a big professional influence on the new guys and h...

Well, what a morning to wake up to. We leave the EU and manage to draft both Bender and Chriss!! With Tyler that bumps it up to an A from me. We need to fill the 4 hole long term and thee two should be able to play 3 positions in some degree as they move forward. Booker will be stoked and as others ...

The best part of this day is that I get to go to sleep knowing all the madness will be complete before I wake up.
Then I wake to whatever fallout has befallen us.
Hope it's a good night for us, and that you guys stay sane;)

Hi Sose, hope life is treating you well, and No, unless it is a 3 team trade sending knight their way and the 3rd team sending us something that we don't fix during the draft.

I'm with the others regarding staying out of the discussion due to not being as knowledgeable about college or overseas ball (ironic I know) as others. I read a lot of pre drafts, but get much more insight from this board. For me there will be at least 1 trade. ( I think it will be the 13th) Keep th...

For me Knight has to be on the block due to his 'not willing to change role' stance at the end of the season. So any combination of a pick and Knight to move up to 1 or 2 is definitely worth the phone calls and time. Chandler wants to move on as well so I think there is much to be explored. Such a s...

Thanks for all the efforts Mori, I know I don't post much, but read all the time.
By the time I can contribute its usually already been said. But thanks for hosting and taking form your life to help us find some solace in the fact that there are other miserable Suns fans out there:-)

Slightly concerned with the club rhetoric but understandable before you start looking to trade players etc.
Priorities:
Focus on developing Booker, all other players are secondary.
Trade Knight,
Trade Chandler,
Don't trade for stupidity in return.
Draft smart.

Not that difficult;)

Good win for the young guys. Positive learning experience. Doesn't influence the ping pong balls too much, but will influence the team in a positive way into the future.

Playing him from the start and openly making him number 1 option is very smart. You give him all the minutes possible to let him get his confidence and catch up on time lost due to injuries. Also helps him learn, grow and develop. The other important thing it does is free some pressure from Booker a...

And, time to return. So glad they got him gone, even better we get a 1st for him. The protection is good and should net us a 12-15 ish pick. The players are fodder, Humphries a good character to have around. 4.5 next year is eatable. Lets hope the young guys continue to develop while dropping a few ...

I'm still on 360, just got an xb1 for Christmas for me and the kids and am under strict instructions it stays in the attic until Christmas Eve:-( Playing Destiny, currently a level 18 Hunter, only had the opportunity to play for about 7 hours, some of them running around not having a clue what to do...

Nice to see you back Swing;-)

but this is all about re-signing Markieff and keeping him happy. $13 million/yr and two roster spots is a lot to invest in a power forward who is a mediocre rebounder and vulnerable defensively in the low post. ^^^^^^This. I understand the cap will probably lift somewhat but we really are paying fo...
