Re: What TV shows are you guys watching?

A couple of weeks ago, I was watching new episodes of Game of Thrones, Louie, Fargo, and Mad Men all at the same time, and all 4 shows ended their seasons at approximately the same time. It was a very depressing time for me when it was all over. Louie Season 4 was my favorite season of television si...

Re: What TV shows are you guys watching?

My wife and I just recently got all caught up on Parenthood. If you are a part of a family, this show hits all the feels. I'm a sensitive guy myself and don't mind tearing up from time to time when I watch television, so this one is right up my alley. Sentimental without being soap opera-y. Smart di...

Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

No way I give him $80M, and I don't think anyone will. 48/4 is more than fair. I might allow him to extract a little more than that if he gets an offer sheet from another team, but not by a lot. If he gets 60/4 from another team, which is very unlikely, I let him walk. Not sure where I draw the lin...

Re: Press Conference: IT3 + Tolliver Intros

Also, Isaiah going with #3!

Dragic: #1
Bledsoe: #2
Isaiah: #3

Three-headed monster, if everything goes my way with Bledsoe's contract. :P

Press Conference: IT3 + Tolliver Intros

http://www.nba.com/suns/suns-now You can watch the full press conference there. Some of my thoughts on it: *I love the light-hearted, upbeat mood of some of these press conferences. A lot of laughter, a lot of smiling *You get a good sense of what Hornacek is like in practice. Always positive, a rea...

Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

I'm in the "Pay the Man!" camp. I'd prefer C, obviously, to keep the team's financial flexibility intact. But if another team comes along and offers him more money, I really hope the Suns match. The stats don't lie: The Suns were a much better team with Bledsoe next to Dragic. Had Bledsoe ...

Re: Fallout from the negative "Free Agency" thread drama

I take issue with people defenestrating themselves from this forum because they don't agree with a single decision made by the administrator. This is an issue I can see being resolved fairly quickly, rather than a lifetime ban. Swingman's access to the Suns' forum has been revoked, but he still has ...

Re: Fallout from the negative "Free Agency" thread drama

As far as carey is concerned, yes he was no saint and he responded in kind but I also see posters saying he abused his mod "powers". How so? I can confirm looking at the mod logs that he didn't delete any posts like he was accused of. It really depends on how the administrator outlines mo...

Re: Fallout from the negative "Free Agency" thread drama

As a bystander to all this, I really only have one thought: This is a Phoenix Suns forum and no one (outside of those involved) gives a shit about these personal beefs. Keep your garbage confined to private messages and stop littering the place with these attacks on one another. If you have a messy ...

Love is a better fit than Wiggins with LBJ's game, they are also in a position to win now, I dont see the problem. I kn...

Re: Suns News: The Offseason

I might be in the minority here, but if you put a gun to my head and told me to choose between these: A. Pay Eric the max B. Let him walk I'm paying the man. An extra 3-4 million a year isn't going to bankrupt the team. The Suns are simply a much better team when he's on the floor with Goran Dragic....

It's going to be hard to sign Ilyasova to a max with that Tolliver money weighing us down.

Re: Suns News: The Offseason

That kind of deal gives us a little flexibility to re-sign Goran when the time comes.
