Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 1 News Thread
Oh I don't want Herro, it would require a 3rd team (or 4th team) Atlanta and Brooklyn would be my preferred trade parters: Beal --> MIA Cam J/Capela --> PHX Herro/Ben Simmons/FRP (MIA), FRP (BKN)--> ATL Trae Young/Duncan Robinson --> BKN Turning Beal into a rotation wing and rim-running center is my...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 1 News Thread
I can't help but think that Herro showing himself to not be the reliable scorer they wanted him to be in MIA could open the door to them re-considering Beal. MIA was one of the prior destinations he waved the NTC for...

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?
If we trot out a starting lineup with 3 shooting guards 6'5" and under again, none of whom who can handle physical defensive assignment, with KD at the 4, we will have learned nothing. There's no way they could have watched this team for 86 games and felt that the only missing ingredient was co...

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?
I would make that trade to get rid of Beal. I think PHX would, Brooklyn probably would (shortsighted move for a big name is definitely in Tsai's playbook), MIA is maybe if they still like Brad, Atlanta would need some serious draft compensation via Brooklyn (and would need to fully embrace the hard...

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?
What I'd like to happen: - Somehow, some way, some team wants to add Brad Beal (Orlando? Miami) - Size, size, and more size Possible avenues for Beal: Beal to ORL, Isaac/Filler (WCJ would be great but Beal isn't gonna command that) to PHX (they have silly amounts of cap room, and need scoring help) ...

If that 4 was Draymond Green or Lebron, you could roll with Book-Beal-KD 1-3.
If the Suns do snag Bronny, I think that means Beal stays and we go all in banking on LeDad signing for the minimum.
More likely is Beal is traded for size, and we figure out a more traditional PG thereafter.

Re: Game Day - Playoff Edition - Game 4: Wolves (3-0) @ Suns (0-3), Sun 4/28/24
Doug Haller and Shams having this article teed up is hilarious. Certainly seems like someone in JJ's camp is trying to run PR to make sure Vogel absorbs the lion's share of the blame, but pretty damning details from the players confirming what most suspected, that Frank lost the locker room a long t...

Re: Game Day - Playoff Edition - Game 4: Wolves (3-0) @ Suns (0-3), Sun 4/28/24
Also I’m perfectly fine with adding a pg. Tyler Kolek. Dude would be great. Replace the EG minutes with him, and plus when you blow it up, he'd probably be a solid starter for a rebuild. As a Marquette alum, I wish him the best, but he’s was a defensive liability in college, afraid to shoot from de...

Re: Game Day - Playoff Edition - Game 4: Wolves (3-0) @ Suns (0-3), Sun 4/28/24
Aside from Brad Beal absolutely shitting the bed, I can live with this loss. At least we competed, responded to punches until we couldn’t. Respect to MIN, they’re a much better team. Had we had this level of focus throughout, perhaps we would have pushed them to 6 games, but they’re just head and sh...

Okogie’s activity is contagious. It shouldn’t take going down 3-0 to make adjustments. It shouldn’t take Vogels job being threatened to make adjustments. Lue,Spo would have went small by halftime game 2.
Too little too late.

Re: The Suns Main Issues and How to Fix
I knew we were fucked when we hired Fizdale. Hiring him was pathognomonic of the failures of team building. We had a clown car of assistant coaches, partially due to Vogel, partially due to Ishbia not being able to choose between Kevin Young and Frank. Every strength of this team is extreme redunda...

Re: Game Day - Playoff Edition - Game 3: Wolves (2-0) @ Suns (0-2), Fri 4/26/24
I never realized how loose his (KD) handle was. This roster just exacerbates all these guys’ worst qualities by: 1. Lacking a floor general 2. Lacking size/grit/toughness 3. Lacking vocal leadership We’re going to be stuck with this roster going in 2025. I don’t see a way to improve this team unless...

Re: Season In Review: Rating
Was looking like a D-F most of the year, but the last 5 quarters show that they crammed before the finals. Got a solid B-/C+.

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Suns-Timberwolves Round 1 News Thread
Bizarre based on pre-season expectations I suppose. We've slid our expectations from champion ship or bust to "let's just make the playoffs, see what happens."

Minnesota get stomped on their home floor right before possibly playing us in the post season just removed any sense of home court advantage away. That’s now a neutral site.

Re: Game Day (Early Start!): Suns (48-33) @ Wolves (56-25), Sun 4/14/24
Far and away the best. Just laser focus, letting the game flow, alert and active defensively. They are visibly frustrating a top seeded team that isn’t lying down.
