Re: The 2021 Suns Offseason

Do we think there’s another move this offseason? Not counting Bridges and Ayton extensions. I’m starting to think we are done and will keep that last roster spot and our exceptions for buyout candidates during the season. That’s not the worst idea, but I would have loved to add 1 more piece(we have...

Re: The 2021 Suns Offseason

I don't like seeing signs of Saver being cheap, but I didn't really care about Ty-Shon Alexander. He seemed like he was never going to make it. I wish him well and was rooting for him, but I didn't really see anything out of him that made me think he would be a rotation NBA player anytime soon. Giv...

Re: The 2021 Suns Offseason

1. Elfrid Payton is capable of passing the ball. If he were capable of shooting, we wouldn't have gotten him for basically vet min. As a third string back up, he's fine. People in NYC hate him: he's coming off his worst year in the NBA and his confidence appears shattered. We'll see if he can put hi...

Re: The 2021 Suns Offseason

Kaminsky should be your 11th or 12th man. If he's in the rotation, something has gone horribly wrong.

Re: The 2021 Suns Offseason

The more I look at Landry Shamet, the more doubtful I become. His shooting was pretty poor last year, just .408 FG%. And that's pretty representative of his whole career. By contrast, Jevon Carter actually shoots a better overall percentage and is probably a much better defender. And Carter worked ...

I'd love to bring Baynes back with the BAE, or IPE. Or vet min if he'll take it.

Suns look like they're just about done for the offseason. They have 11 contracts now. PGs: CP3 Payne SGs: Booker Shamet SFs: Bridges Nader PFs: Crowder Johnson Cs: Ayton McGee J. Smith I forgot Saric. So we have 12 contracts. One of which is a lead albatross (Saric). DPE is only $4.25M, not sure wh...

I have a feeling we’re getting Cody Zeller, can someone convince me that’s a good move?
I can't. He's god-awful on defense after we lost the finals because we couldn't defend the opposition's frontcourt.

Re: The 2021 Suns Offseason

Flex from Jersey reporting that the Suns might look to trade into the 2nd round if a guy they want is still there. I wonder if they're thinking of Bassey or Wieskamp, both of whom are likely to be around between 35-45.

Re: SUNS NEWS: 2021 FINALS EDITION SUNS vs BUCKS

I'm flying in from the East Coast to attend Game 2.

Most of the talking-head "experts" are picking the Bucks, but the modeling and simulation is favoring the Suns.

Re: Game Day Playoff Edition — WCF, Game 5 — Los Angeles Clippers @ Phoenix Suns, Monday 6/28/2021

Hopefully, the Suns can exploit the Clippers being forced to play small ball. They should know that they have to keep the 3 point line covered. LAC started out the series testing the theory that the could beat the Suns using basically the same strategy they used on Utah. They gave up by halftime. Ma...

Re: Suns News: Playoffs Edition

Nader is a situational 9th or 10th guy. He posted the 45th best RPM among SFs last year, and the 35th best the year before that. He's s high energy pest on defense, and a solid 3 point shooter. Has the speed to defend 2's, enough size to work against smaller 3's. As for playing him... sure. If you'r...
