Re: Around the League: Week 13 1/18-1/24

No, Paul hits Lopez in the stomach, Lopez shoves Paul in the face, Paul starts flailing punches, then Lopez clocks Paul. No flops, but Paul was the instigator:

Re: Around the League: Week 13 1/18-1/24

I'm still awaiting an explanation as to why they drafted Anthony Bennett #1 over all....still waiting. I was a Bennett fan and wanted us to select him at #5 in 2013, but even I can't explain why Cleveland used their #1 on him - especially after it was known that he, like Adrien Payne, had a lung co...

Re: Suns News: Week 12 1/11-1/17

Fwiw, I don't think Knight has regressed. I think he is what he always was. There's a reason the Suns are his 3rd team. He's a guy that is fairly good, but nothing special. Whose liabilities as a defender and decision maker will keep a team from being anything other than pedestrian if he's the full...

Re: Suns News: Week 12 1/11-1/17

Between the two, Knight definitely needs to go - not only has he severely regressed, but dude can't defend for shit and his 100% hero ball shit sucks the life out of what little offense remains. Though Bledsoe drives blind in the half-court, at least he offers up great defense and his shot selection...

Re: Around the League: Week 12 1/11-1/17

Judging from his attitude on the court, he's probably a pill who's let success go to his head.

In other news, Portland is getting blown out in Philly:

Re: Around the League: Week 11 1/4-1/10

He'll be worth it, you know, with all of his experience and background being a GM and coach in the NBA. This will set the Nets back another 10 years. Prokhorov's more interested in making a splash with big names and contracts than having a well run team. Really unfortunate. Prokhorov obviously wasn...

Re: Suns News: Week 10 12/28-1/3

Putting the younglings out on the court is one thing. But we need a coach who will do everything possible to help them become the best players they can be. Mike D doesn't have a history of doing that. And therein lies exactly why I don't want to see D'Antoni anywhere near this team. That and the fa...

Try being less of a smartass. I never asserted that I was some omnipotent know-it-all - I just said that Stein was talking out of his ass here. But, IMO, it was only a matter of time - if he didn't do it, someone else would've. And carey, you've no leg to stand on when talking about being butthurt ...

Re: Suns News: Week 10 12/28-1/3

I don't think we'll get more confirmation. Stein's got legit connections and has proven to be in tune with the organization so that's probably as solid info as you'll get. But that's what it always is from these guys, hearsay and speculation. I don't think he, nor most in his position, would just m...

Re: Game Day: Suns (12-24) @ Lakers (7-27), Sun 1/3/16

I'd add Leuer to the list of keepers. Really like his game. Was just going to mention Leuer - his versatility off the bench on a decent team is an opponent's nightmare and he's a bargain, even with a substantial raise. But yeah - it's pretty much fire sale time. Picks, prospects and expirings are w...

https://twitter.com/ESPNSteinLine/status/684017448513843200 Stein's pretty in the know and has some Suns ties IIRC. I'm not opposed to MikeD but don't think this roster can play his style. There would need to be a major overhaul, especially at the PG position. And he'd have to hire some defensive a...

The less Sarver speaks, the better. The whole "millennial" thing makes me cringe, and calling out the lockerroom cancer specifically only adds fuel to that fire. The media does seem to be hinting that McD is one of those execs too focused on stats and doesn't really get how to build a suc...
