Re: 2024 NBA Draft

I think we can all agree: it’s critical we walk away from this draft with (at least) one rotation player - whether that means by drafting him, trading for him or trading down and picking up additional assets. Jones can not blow this.

I prefer Saben to IT, but it’s all “whatever.”

Why did we keep iso-ing KD against Herb Jones? And why did Book play decoy for his first 6 minutes in the 4th? Step it up, Frank.

He did the thing!

Now can he do the other thing? (regular season triple double)

And can we do the big thing that Jeremy is referring to?

Re: Game Day: Suns (43-30) @ Thunder (50-22), Fri 3/29/24

I gotta say, that Thunder performance was super impressive. They played harder, smarter and better. I don’t even think we played that poorly. We were just outclassed on every level. Their defense and constant attack mentality on O were so overwhelming. Presti is a freaking wizard. Presti's coaching...

This was one of those classic games where the opponent couldn’t miss and the refs decided they wanted in on the action to see what would happen if it was 8 on 5. Congrats. It’s a winning formula.
Come on. Refs had nothing to do with the outcome.

8 (!) mostly sloppy turnovers aside, KD was pretty great in this one.

And great Thad minutes.

I’d almost just go small if no Nurkic. Play zone and just let it fly from 3
Knowing this team, they’d probably take the first half of your suggestion without the second. Love when they play small to get contested mid-range jump shots.

Re: Suns News: Week 23 (3/25 - 3/31)

I don't think we can have a total zero on the floor just to have a defender out there. Doesn't work with Okogie and he's as good a defender as any of those guys. I don't know if starting O'Neal would help - I think he might be a better fit for the starters but isn't some standout defender either an...

Re: Suns News: Week 23 (3/25 - 3/31)

Mori posted it a few days ago, but we’ve got a fundamental roster flaw in that our starting lineup doesn’t include a single high-level defender, especially at the point of attack. Consistency on defense and generating more turnovers would make our offensive struggles much more palatable. The idea of...

Fraudulent team.

I haven’t been on the Fire Frank bandwagon but this game was a fireable offense.

Nurkic back to his early season rim finishing. Throwing prayers up there from 2 feet away. It would be funny if he played for another team.
