Re: Around the League: Week 1 10/16-10/21

This is going to end up being one of the deepest drafts all time. I have no regrets the suns picking Ayton, Bridges, and Okobo. Good for Young. He can pass, shoot, and drive. It wouldn’t have worked with him and Booker.

Re: Suns News: Week 1 10/17-10/21

Have you guys heard this? Gambo was reporting that McD was trying to trade up for SGA, but got overruled. Then the trade back up for Bridges happened. I am just guessing that it would have been for less than the Miami pick. If that were the case, it would have solved 3 problems right now. 1. Would ...

Re: Game Day (Home Opener): Mavericks (0-0) @ Suns (0-0), Wed 10/17/18

Wow. It’s been a longtime coming. Igor is the man. And that’s without a point guard. I was glad that the team was able to punish the defense for trapping Booker. Booker despite having caught fire looked vulnerable bringing the ball up court. Man, how good did that feel to have commentators sing the ...

Re: Point Guards

It’s a staring contest and everyone knows we are about to blink. I wonder what the prices are for Clippers guards Teodosic and Beverley. I seen Beverley play this preseason, he looks great and I think they should keep him while they play their rookie. They’re right to ask for a late to mid 1st round...

Jarret Jack as a starter, Crawford for the second unit, cut Shaq and Canaan and have Okobo and Melton learn.

Re: Point Guards

We need a point god. In the meantime, how about someone who will prevent the team from losing by 30 points. Someone who isn’t going to pound the ball and will do what Igor needs.

Re: 2018 Suns Offseason News

The offense isn’t PG heavy under Igor, just bring the ball up and initiate the offense. He doesn’t need to facilitate each field goal or probe the defense. Plus with a little luck it’s only for 20-30 games until Jones makes a move. I just can’t stomach losing by 40 early into the season. Cannon and ...

Re: 2018 Suns Offseason News

Jamal Crawford. F*ck it. Sign him to a minimum. The Suns need a solid offense until the trade deadline when teams aren’t bending Sarver a rail. Running him at point is better than Shaq or Canaan. Booker and Ayton are gonna eat with 3 shooters on the floor. It’s just that on defense, the team is gonn...

Re: 2018-2019 NBA season predictions

I predict the suns win 45+ games and trade by December for either Kemba Walker for a top 3 protected pick and salary dump or Beverly for a lottery protected first rounder. Ayton wins ROY btw. I believe Sarver wants to pull the trigger on a trade and is going to hang out a first rounder. My guess is ...

Re: Around the League: 2018 Offseason

I liked Alex Len. Just not for our team. I have no doubt had he played under Pop, he would have learned to be a solid center. Some players have to be made into good players under a strong player system. He’s also playing basketball in the wrong era. In the 90’s he would have been great.

Anyone catch that Boston is trying to extend Rozier? Hell to the no. No way he extends when he is due for a big paycheck by next summer.

Re: Around the League: 2018 Offseason

I just listened to the Locked On NBA podcast, and they did a lot of Laker talk. I did hear them say that they hope that the Suns dive quickly so that they release Tyson Chandler so he can join the Lakers and solidify their 2nd string center position. It might be just me, but this annoys the heck ou...

Re: Game Day: Suns (2-2) @ Blazers (1-2), Wed 10/10/18

It looked like he’s figuring out a bench unit. The group as a whole was a mess. It looked like a scrimmage most of the game on both sides with exception to Layman.
Come regular season, I think Ariza, Ayton, Booker, and Anderson are gonna get a bunch of minutes while they figure out a bench rotation.

Re: Ryan out as GM

Jackson is going to learn to play within himself and use his skills to be effective. Part of his development will include having a two man game with Ayton. The context of playing alongside Booker and Ayton should limit his poor shot selection and highlight his strengths vis only having 10-12 shots p...

Re: Game Day (Preseason): Suns (1-2) @ Warriors (1-1), Mon 10/08/18

This was the first time Igor’s offense looked great and made sense. GS actually seemed to be trying for the most part in the first half. It was great seeing the team catch fire. Book is gonna be good in the offense for sure. I think Rozier would really work well in Igor’s offense similarly to how he...

Re: Ryan out as GM

Sarver likely only hires puppets to be his GM. That’s universally accepted across the league. I’m fine with hiring James Jones as a player friendly GM but something’s got to give with Sarver making us a laughing stock.

Re: Ryan out as GM

McDonough and Sarver probably had a disagreement regarding the point guard position. I'm sure Sarver wanted Ryan to trade the pick away unprotected and Ryan didn't want to attach him name to it, thus, the firing. I just hope we make a smart trade. If he trades away an unprotected pick, who would be...

Re: Suns Preseason News 2018

Preseason has only confirmed the pg need. I would love to see the offers McD has had. Every front office knows the Suns’ dire need for a pg. I’m not sure he can make a trade unless the suns give up first rounders.
