Booker's name gets dropped by Drake on an album: "See the shots that I took, wet like I'm Book." https://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/nba/suns/2018/08/03/suns-devin-booker-drake-travis-scott-song-astroworld-album/900153002/ Is "Book" really a household name to be used in a rap...

It's impossible for them to not make the playoffs for 10 years after only 9 years.

EDIT: Unless you meant it would be at least 10 seasons between playoffs appearances if they miss out this year.

If he is leading the league in scoring, he will get on the team. And I think that is possible (or at least in top 3 by the end of December).

I'm with you here. I think 25/5/5 is conservative.

It should be since he already did it last year.

Suns’ Deandre Ayton buys 300 Mercury playoff tickets for fans

Booker did this last year!

Could a 16pts, 7 reb, 5 ast, 2 stl, 1 blk while shooting .44/.32/.70 be considered a great player? How good would his defense need to be? If you allow 16.1 pts, 6.4 reb, 5.2 ast, 2.0 stl, 0.8 blk while shooting .473/.326/.704...well then those are the career statistics of someone named... Scottie P...

There are several great Ayton articles lately. We should use this as a "All Things Ayton" thread. Maybe we can rename it! I'll post a few good articles I saw today. Good idea, I renamed it! From ESPN's Q&A with NBA rookies : What went through your mind when LeBron signed with the Lake...

Feels like so long ago Amar'e was on the Suns. That whole era feels like a lifetime ago. Crazy.

And yet he’s still only 35 years old!

Here were Shawn Marion’s first three seasons as far as 3P%: .182 .256 .393 And Marion is a player that Jackson was compared to when he was drafted. Jackson was .263 from 3 his first year. He did attempt more threes than Marion did at the start of his career, but I see no reason to be concerned yet a...

I had this to post last week , forgive me for not putting it in General or whatever but been slow days on the forum so any half decent topic is better than no topic. anybody caught STAT "doing a lil something" in the BIG3 :) [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMGKOMGZ3l8[/youtube] T...

I would never want Tony Parker on the Suns, just because he’s Tony Parker lol. I have no problem giving Knight one more year to prove whether he can be a good starting PG in this league. If not, then you can either trade his expiring contract next summer or stretch/waive him, which will create more ...

Got this sent to my email today from the Suns. Are they planning on trading Jackson?

I don’t think we’ll make a deal for a PG since they now plan on keeping Shaq. That’s three point guards already.

I liked Big Sauce, but he wasn't gonna play...I hope he can find somewhere to get minutes

He could’ve been our backup center once we trade Tyson at the trade deadline.

Next week: Lakers sign Melo.

The whole "constant movement of the ball and player" scares me a little bit. Isn't that going to wear the players out more than SSOL?

He was Watson's guy. I'm wondering how invested McD is at this point. We saw Bender there so they're clearly still working on getting the most out of him. If we're not committed to Chriss, move him for anything. Just don't let it fester like we've done in the past. Igor is probably waiting to see w...

Bridges left the game with an injury (knee contusion).

Any word on Okobo? It was an eye injury. http://arizonasports.com/story/1596285/suns-notebook-ayton-underperforms-okobo-injured-bridges-revenge-game/amp/ Second-round pick Elie Okobo got hit in the eye in the first quarter. He only played one minute and would not return. “Hopefully nothing serious,...

Hope Ayton sits the next game out. I'd rather see Jack Cooley out there hustling and seeing the fun crowd reactions to anything he does than a repeat of yesterday's performance. It would help feature Bridges as well who had a pretty good game and was very active all game yesterday. His performance ...

So many frustrating things on that final play. 1. The no call for Smith's foul on Bridges. 2. Bridges should have stayed at the three point line and let Shaq drive it to the hoop like he had been doing. 3. Shaq should have dumped it off behind him to Ayton, who was in great position to dunk it to se...
