Re: Game Day: Grizzlies (2-2) @ Suns (1-3), Wed 10/29/25

I really like the effort so far this season. So far, I am impressed with Ott's game management outside of some of his lineup choices. I like the heart and the physicality we play with. I respect Booker's loyalty; he is saying all the right things and deserves every penny he can get for how he has ...

Re: All Things Ayton

Ayton and Grant should do well off each other. At least I thought that back in 2022 before Portland got him. I wish the best for Ayton but want to destroy him tonight. He still has a lot of growing up to do.

Re: Playoffs Round 1, Game 4: Phoenix Suns (2-1) @ New Orleans Pelicans, Sun 4/24/22

CP is back on his walk-it-up bullshit for 15 seconds every possession that lets the defense get set. He's flirted with that 8 second backcourt call at least half a dozen times this series, just barely getting it over halfcourt at the :16 second mark. The refs probably could've called at 2 other ...

Re: All Things Ayton

Can we give him a conditional max contract? I mean with bonuses that give him the opportunity to get the max contract he wants. Bonuses that have a qualifier that says he has to be in the top 10% of the league in FTA, or he must get a certain amount of dunks. Basically, any metric that would ...

Ayton with 26 points on 91% FG shooting, 11 rebounds, 1 block in only 30 minutes.

Singlehandedly sealed the win for us.

And some of y'all wanted to trade him away.
Not even year 4 yet when things start to slow down for him Luka out.

Re: 2021 NBA Draft Prospects

Trayce Jackson-Davis could fall to us if he declares. I think he could fill a need for us. FTA, I am not sure how well it translates to the NBA but he is good at it. Well, so much for that idea as it looks like he is returning to Indiana. https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/watch-trayce-jackson-davis ...

Re: Game Day: Pelicans (2-1) @ Suns (2-1), Tues 12/29/20

Does anybody at this point think DA is ever going to be anything but a less motivated, slightly better offensive touch Clint Capela? He's still young, and I think he can be more. He's just thinking too much every time he touches the ball, imo. Trust me, I want him to be more aggressive, dunk ...

Re: NBA FA 2020 & Suns FA targets

Ayton needs to work on his hands, If he had full control on the ball more it would make him seem more aggressive. His hands are not near good enough for him to dunk through traffic yet. Amare had that at the begining.

Ayton needs to work on his hands if they get better his confidence will go up. Im not sure what NBA teams do to train hands. Maybe Jarded Dudley knows?

Re: Game Day:Suns (32-39) vs 76ers (42-28), Tues 8/11/20

2 areas where I have noticed more focus.

We are moving on the pass instead of the catch more as a team and Booker has gotten very very good at it when he is tuned in.
We are boxing out WAY more consistently on free throws.

Its good to see.

We ALWAYS give up on our big men early. Why stop now buy high sell low its the Phoenix Suns way. Just understand that Ayton just turned 22.
