Re: 2024 NBA Draft
Missi is a year younger, stronger, better frame, more athletic, and more explosive. He attacks the rim with ferocity that Ware hasn't shown. But Ware has been more productive and has shown stretch potential.

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News
That's sad. He had plenty of critics, but I thought he was hilarious. Loved the game, didn't take himself too seriously, and had fun in the broadcast booth. I'll miss his contributions.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft
Here's my board for the Suns in an alternate timeline where they didn't hate the draft: 1. Tyler Smith 2. Kel'El Ware 2. Enrique Freeman 3. Baylor Scheierman 4. Michael Ajayi 5. Dillon Jones 6. Quentin Post 7. Jonathan Mogbo I have a hard time seeing Ware still available at 22. Freeman reminds me of...

I feel like Anthony Edwards has been watching a ton of film of Kevin Durant passing.

I think Utah still has Dunn under contract.

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 3 (Conf Finals) News Thread
I love that Mike Conley said in his interview, when asked about getting Edwards going, that they were trying to get him off the ball more, and reduce him expending energy bringing the ball up so much.

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 2 (Conf Semis) News Thread
Josh Giddey is getting traded to the Suns. Rumor or fantasy? Prediction. I threw that out a few days ago but don’t see it as super likely. I think if they did put him on the market, they could get more than we can offer. Also, James Jones had those “shooting” comments recently in terms of what he w...

Re: Suns hire Mike Budenholzer as head coach
It does come across as blind optimism sometimes; sure we got swept in first round and our ageing injury-prone big three don’t fit together well and will be a year older next season, and we have no real means to dramatically improve around them, but we are totally a title contender. I don't even loo...

Re: 2024 NBA Draft
Can Edey play in our system? We don’t throw the ball to a low post big. Can he screen and roll? Is he a lob threat? Can he catch a bounce pass? Can he dribble or pass out of the short roll? Can he play up at the level on defense? I don’t question his ability to be at least a decent low post player,...

Re: 2024 NBA General Offseason News
I agree that the pairing isn't optimal, but I am also rolling my eyes at Garland. With Mitchell out of the lineup in Game 5, Garland stunk. So any "him or me" convos should be met with laughter.

Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News
Eubanks’ defense was worse than I thought it would be and he’s not a good defensive rebounder. He just doesn’t have a good feel for the game. It’s not about getting him the ball late in the clock, it’s about getting him the ball where he has to make decisions on the fly. He’s limited to catching an...

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?
I like having the option of having a big like Nurk, especially when going up against Denver, but I also think the Suns would be better off at center with Mo Bamba and/or Andre Drummond. There is a lot pieces on the roster that need to be cleared out. It doesn't make any sense to have Devin Booker, B...

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?
Suns traded for David Roddy. My question is will he ever develop ? Will he get minutes ? Can he just be a facilitator for this team and bring the ball up to set up KD, Book, and Beal ? Will he be traded ? I've wondered about Roddy too. But he isn't a facilitator. I think he could be contributor for...

Re: Suns Fire Frank Vogel
President of basketball operations and general manager James Jones explained why the move to fire Vogel was about timing. He also ultimately laid blame on Vogel, because he saw “inconsistency in our competitive nature.” As in, the coaching change was as simple as reaching its players, the Big Three...
