Race to 200 haha.
Trying not to care too much about Ayton but right now he's looking more like Joe Barry Carroll than David Robinson. WTF is up with him? He has a golden opportunity and he's letting it slip through his fingers.
If I end up being wrong about him, so be it.

Re: Game Day: Suns (0-0) @ Warriors (0-0), Tues 10/24/23
The Suns are thankfully built to withstand the loss of either Booker or Beal for a long stretch of time. Having both Grayson Allen and Eric Gordon is a really nice insurance policy. Of course, I'd love to see Beal back sooner rather than later, but why mess with a back injury.

Is there a way to block posts containing certain words? Like for instance I didn’t want to see cuss words and block posts with the F word in it? I don’t care about cussing. I want to block the word Ayton. He was traded and isn’t coming back. Nurkic is our Center now. Jeremy, are you going to spend ...

Re: TRADE: Ayton/Camara for Nurkic/Allen/Little/Johnson
Williams won't play much, he's been an injury risk and will remain one. Boston didn't lose much in him if you listen to their fans. Having slept a few nights on it, I think the Ayton-Nurkic swap might have been a good deal for Portland and an ok deal for the Suns. I think that Ayton will get closer ...

Re: All Things Ayton
If you're right, then that will mean I was wrong about him being able to reach another level. But even if that's the case, I still would have kept him instead of making the team worse. This will be really funny when he averages 18/11 on worse shooting splits and the same minutes and we win the cham...

Glad to hear you've been doing better, Carey! My dad is a retired math teacher. He taught at GCU for awhile (Suns legend Horacio Llamas was in at least one of his classes IIRC).

Thanks for sharing Carey…. Perspective is everything and getting to live in a situation that challenges your norms can be super humbling. Very cool that you’re finding you place there and the kids like you. No pay can substitute the feeling you get when kids genuinely like you, that’s awesome. What...

Sounds like it's time for you to find a new forum. I think we can be better than this. I don't want anybody telling anybody here that they should get out. If we were all hanging out in person at my house, would you come over and then tell somebody else they should leave? If a given user doesn't wan...

Re: TRADE: Ayton/Camara for Nurkic/Allen/Little/Johnson
No use drying over spilled milk, been reading scouting reports on Nurkic. When healthy, he is a good to great rebounder and interior defender. On offense, he is a great screener and potentially a good three point shooter. He is going to be virtually unplayable in the playoffs unless facing a simila...

Re: TRADE: Ayton/Camara for Nurkic/Allen/Little/Johnson
I think this is a garbage trade that will hurt the team come playoff time. I would like to ragequit but you know that I won't -- not after close to 40 years of heartbreak.
Disappointing nevertheless.

Then, no deal. Nurkic doesn't play in the playoffs. Regardless whether you get 2021 or 2023 Ayton, you're still down a starting center.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Tue Sep 26, 2023 10:26 pmI don’t believe the Suns have any shot at landing OG Anunoby.

Re: All Things Ayton
I am still blown away at how many people think an Ayton for Nurkic trade would be anything but a massive downgrade at the center position. The excuses being thrown around are flimsier than some of Jeremy's arguments propping up Ayton. And...even if we get OG back, is even him a big enough upgrade to...
