Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 2 (Conf Semis) News Thread

Jokic just slapping his meat all over Goberts face. What a quarter that was. Wednesday is a holiday for Buddha's birthday over here in Korea so I hosted some friends to watch the games today, one of which is a Nuggets fan from Denver. I don't really care who wins this series but I was vicariously r...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 2 (Conf Semis) News Thread

The Wolves are completely cooked without Mike Conley. I'm not at all surprised by the result of Game 5. That's not to say the Wolves would've won if Conley played, they just had essentially no chance of winning without him. Obviously impossible to happen for so many reasons but Conley would be just...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 2 (Conf Semis) News Thread

That series looks over - and I think the Twolves players know it. Their role players look ordinary, nuggets are doing enough to make life difficult for Edwards and Jokic is putting on an absolute clinic. I think Minnesota steps up at home, especially if Scott Foster gets the game. It will be intere...

Minnesota taking a few plays out of the Suns’ book with rushes long 2s and passing to the wrong player later in the shot clock.

I’m pretty sure the Thunder would be unbothered by what any of us think about them at the moment!

I only caught the last 7 minutes but the Thunder showed more poise down the stretch and Daigneault Mainly pulled the right strings. Advantage OKC again and Dallas would really be feeling like they gave one away.

I know. My response is that he wouldn't have made a difference at all.

Well, maybe a negative difference for the Suns.
Sorry, misunderstood

Think Jevon comment was more meaning to put him on Jrue or Middleton?

Re: Suns Fire Frank Vogel

Reading the tea leaves they will wait a couple of days before hiring Bud so it looks like they have considered everything but they have already pretty much decided.

Looks like Jamal Murray is going to be fined but not suspended for throwing stuff at a referee and onto court during live play.
Good thing he didn’t take one step onto court when he wasn’t supposed to - that would be far more dangerous 🙄

Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News

I am 100% not advocating that we should keep Vogel. However, there is something to be said for cleaning out the assistants and having a clearer hierarchy in the coaching ranks. Between Young still being around and highly talked up, and some other senior faces on the bench, I wouldn’t be surprised if...

It also seems very obvious that Jamal Murray is hurt, he's food for Ant.
He may need to sit down for a game or two anyway after throwing a heat bag onto the court during live play. Dangerous and stupid act.

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?

I did see that. He was way too relaxed switching back to Josh Hart, even in a normal situation let alone crunch time in an elimination game.

Setting the scene for running it back while trying to fix the margins probably using whatever draft picks they can trade.


Welp.
100% that was my impression

Jones: I think we have more than enough (options) to build around the margins (to get better).

Ishbia seemed very annoyed today. Jones is much more measured.
I only caught his second half of the presser and thought he seemed a bit amped up if anything - taking fast, big picture goals etc.
Jones now talking about continuity being key. Seems the key theme/talking point today.

Ishbia: continuity, consistency works, playing together works. Going into next year with the same starting five, I feel good about that.
