Re: Suns All-Time Top 10
Wilson was the opening night starting center.
Rest of the lineup comprised Gary Gregor, Van Arsdale, Dick Snyder and Goodrich.
Wilson was traded later in the season. Phoenix obtained Jim Fox in a separate trade to play center.

Re: Suns All-Time Top 10
"Stumpy" could really score. I was a little surprised he made it to the Hall of Fame, but he had a great college career at UCLA, so that was obviously what seperated him from the pack. I think Van's tenacity and dependability has kind of been forgotten over the years. If there aver was a ...

Re: Suns All-Time Top 10
He was a Sun for only two seasons, but Gail Goodrich deserves a mention. After a stellar college career at UCLA (winning two NCAA championships), Goodrich was a third guard for the Lakers behind Jerry West and Archie Clark. Lakers did not protect him in the expansion draft, and Suns management grabb...

I like Sobers, if for nothing else, that he elbowed and shoved Rick Barry in the 76 Western Conference finals.
Barry was MIA for the rest of the game.

Re: Suns All-Time Top 10
Elvin Hayes, at that time with the Rockets, said that if Hawkins tried Globetrotter moves in an NBA game, Hayes would personally shut him down. Sure enough, in the Suns first game against the Rockets, Hawkins isolated on Hayes, made one of his patented one-handed fakes and glided by Hayes for a fing...

Re: Suns All-Time Top 10
Majerle probably would be high on the list of most popular Suns.
I heard an interview with Tom Chambers once wherein TC said that Majerle had ridiculously strong wrists, which made it easy for him to toss up 28-30 foot three pointers ...

Re: Suns All-Time Top 10
Silas for Gary Gregor proved to be a one-sided trade, with Silas having a long career and Gregor out of pro ball by age 28.
Silas had been stuck behind Bill Bridges and Zelmo Beaty (two very good players) in the Hawks lineup.

Re: Suns All-Time Top 10
That's a good list. I've been watching the Suns since the first season. I might find a way to put Chambers in there, but I don't know who he'd replace. Hawkins meant so much in the franchise's early days, because fans came to games to see him. Van Arsdale and Goodrich were very good players, but not...

Re: Monty Williams
I wouldn't mind having him back if he ever wants to return and be kind and considerate to others. That’s not his nature. Being kind and considerate to others would defeat the entire purpose of his existence. Ladmo was unique and, at times, entertaining. I remember his "Ladmo's Bags" threa...

Re: Welcome to the New Suns
There was a minor influx of Chinese players after the drafting of the Great Walking Wall -- Ming, Wang ZhiZhi and Mengke Bateer. That faded after Ming retired. Wang was primarily a one-dimensional mid-range shooter and Mengke was pathologically slow.
