Re: Game Day: Suns (16-36) @ Grizzlies (32-22), Wed 2/8/17
Suns coach Earl Watson didn't appreciate the shoving, but he liked how his young players stuck up for each other. "That shows they believe in each other and they believe in a purpose," he said. "They play for something bigger. They play for each other. That's how you start to change ...

Re: 2nd Half of season
I agree. Playoff basketball experience can not only catapult players but also teams. I also would think that a playoff birth would keep Sarver from making basketball moves.SDC wrote:if there's a legit chance to make it as an eight seed, you do it.

Re: If the Suns have to do a trade, where
they need to give up one of the young players to get the deal done, which players do you keep? and Who is the player you are most willing to part ways with? TJ Warren Dragan Bender Marquese Chriss Alex Len For me it depends om the scenario. Is the trade a move for the future like a lotto pick or tw...

Re: The Earl Watson Report
I think that Watson needs to talk to the press less until he gets better at not painting himself into corners when it comes to things he says. An example: “Our plan was to bring all of them along, but at different times,” Watson said. “It’s been consistent. We’ve always said that they will all get t...

Re: The Earl Watson Report
I am with Laz in wondering how much leeway he has had in rotations. Specifically Bender and Chis stemming from the draft room division on draft day. Sarver was on one side of that divide and I feel like that is playing into rotations. O_Gardino has it right when he said Watson is getting better bit ...

Re: Game Day: Raptors (22-9) @ Suns (9-23), Thurs 12/29/16
I really think there may be a play for a star soon. I think another will move by the deadline. Then another between the lotto order and the end of the draft day. I think we have the assets to get 2 of them. If we get the correct 2 then we have a shot at a star in 2018 free agency. If we can do the a...

Re: Game Day: Raptors (22-9) @ Suns (9-23), Thurs 12/29/16
Oh yeah. We don't have the lakers pick anymore. I could probably do this one to death, so I won't - if we can trade Bledsoe and tucker for a high lottery pick then I'm satisfied, and McD probably earns a(nother) stay of execution with the make up trade. :lol: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: Game Day: Raptors (22-9) @ Suns (9-23), Thurs 12/29/16
-Bledsoe is our best player and should have a lot of value around the league. I agree. His value will continue to increase toward the trade deadline. The landscape of the 2018 free agency, the youth in the league at the point guard position, the draft being PG heavy this year, could be the perfect ...

Re: Game Day: Rockets (21-8) @ Suns (8-20), Wed 12/21/16
How hard is it to get a coach and GM on the same page? I know the whole having the same person as coach and GM doesn't always work out, but having a coach and GM with differing agendas doesn't either. Why can't McD go to Watson and tell him his job is to develop this team for the future. Tell him t...

Re: Booker Report
I don't think it's fair to pin Booker's struggles on Bledsoe. I don't. I don't think playing with drive & kick guards that never choose the kick option is helping his development though. The defense, the sometimes questionable shot selection, the 3 point % is all Booker. I feel like that may be...
