Re: Suns News: Weeks 24 (3/30 - 4/5) and 25 (4/6 - 4-12)

I think you can get away with CG as a Nash-lite but you have to let him handle the ball and run offense that allows Book to get to his sweet spots. Book ISOing 30ft from the basket just isn't his game. Working the midrange and postup like he was doing earlier in the year worked and then we went ...

Re: Suns News: Weeks 24 (3/30 - 4/5) and 25 (4/6 - 4-12)

To me it’s just about the return for Booker. It doesn’t make sense to bottom out without our picks…we’d need to get a young cornerstone type back in return for me to be interested and I must am not sure that’s out there. I don’t think we are winning a title with Book at any point, but I’d rather watc ...

Re: Game Day (Play-In): Trail Blazers (8th Seed) @ Suns (7th seed), Tues 4/14/26

Lots of thoughts and lots of reasons we lost, but biggest reason was the inability to keep Deni from the rim at the end. He killed us down the stretch. We had two guys sitting on the bench who could have prevented that. However, they are rookies so apparently they are ineligible to play in an ...

Speaking of the prediction thread, I think I made it the last couple years, but I’m traveling this weekend and not positive I’ll get it up. If someone else wants to throw it together, that would be great!

Re: Game Day: Suns (44-37) @ Thunder (64-17), Sun 4/12/26

I haven't watched yet but have been screaming for Dunn to get more burn just because he hustles and gets rebounds and isn't a traffic cone to shoot over. I note he was shown as playing SG .. did that change his spots on offense significantly more than the usual stand in the corner? He was way more ...

Re: Game Day: Suns (44-36) @ Lakers (51-29), Fri 4/10/26

What Shel said…you can’t judge guys like Dunn and Sheer when they are playing with Bouyea. You hope for their future that they develop some aggressive moves attacking, but that’s not been their game yet. I do think it’s very possible we lose both play-in games. We’re gonna need Booker firing on all c ...

Re: Game Day: Suns (44-36) @ Lakers (51-29), Fri 4/10/26

That was a brutal watch. Brooks was point shaving. Bunnz (h/t Saucy) was awful. -39. Zero impact on either end. Super disappointing. Williams was soft as he has been recently. Grayson had his usual “I’ve played 3 straight games, now I need a few off” injury. Brea not an NBA playa. Bouyea has low key ...

Re: Game Day: Mavericks (25-54) @ Suns (43-36), Wed 4/8/26

I thought Oso looked like he lost some weight, which can happen over the course of the season. He'll always have trouble with bigger centers but he might be fading a bit down the stretch here. Also think it needs to be reinforced that he needs to be aggressive driving and attacking the rim like he ...

Re: Around the NBA: Weeks 24 (3/30 - 4/5) and 25 (4/6 - 4-12)

Thunder, Pacers,Grizzlies, Cavs, and Nuggets were all top 10 in pace last year and finished 1st, 3rd, 4th, 6th, and 7th in offensive rating.

It’s just a fluke this year.

I don’t think we can afford to take any games off. Keep the foot on the pedal and do whatever we can to be firing on as many cylinders as possible when the play-in starts.

Re: Game Day: Mavericks (25-54) @ Suns (43-36), Wed 4/8/26

I’m not too worried about this one…offense went a little stagnant at times and couldn’t create shots…that’ll happen when you lose two of your shot creators. It’s also the effect of having guys like Fleming/Maluach/Dunn out there who kinda stop the offense if the ball swings to them and they don’t hav ...

Green out, knee
Goodwin out, leg

Speaking of injuries, Haysmith has to be the worst deadline signing. Dude has a leg injury for 2 seasons but the Suns signed him anyway. What a waste. Really needed a PF.
They told us when they signed him that it was a move for next year.

Re: Game Day: Rockets (49-29) @ Suns (43-35), Tues 4/7/26

Allen has spent most of the season as our 2nd best player. He’s struggling lately, but you don’t just bench him for a few bad games. Royce is the guy you could maybe take minutes from. Even then, our defense has been better all year than our offense and Royce is unquestionably a better offensive pla ...

Re: Game Day: Rockets (49-29) @ Suns (43-35), Tues 4/7/26

I think it has more to do with making sure we get Brooks and Williams up to speed. I think there is still room for some Fleming or Dunn, but I get it to an extent. These games don’t matter…we need Brooks and Williams to find their rhythm again.
