It’s the time, I’ll be at work. I’d be home for a 7 o’clock start
Carter and Payne have won me over as our backup guards in this bubble. Carter is no longer pounding the ball. It’s like suddenly something clicked and he either passes or shoots, he’s not wild. I’d like to add to them, but I no longer want Carter off the team entirely.Wormwood wrote: ↑Mon Aug 10, 2020 2:29 pmWeird watching meaningful Suns games.
Ayton still needs to grow the **** up... but we can't win without him.
We're proving we can win without Oubre, however. In fact, Baynes is looking more valuable right now than Oubre in some ways. Look for the FO to look at offers this offseason involving him. We're still weak at PF. Saric seems like a better 6th man than starter.
Kaminsky's gone. You just can't keep him on the floor with his defense being so bad.
Cam Payne looks like the answer at back up PG. Carter's interesting as a back up SG, but he's not a good enough distributor. Still, bringing either or both of them back next season would be nice if it can be in the vet minimum range.
Funniest part is that the SUns are probably going to win out, and still not make it to the "play-in" game against Portland or Memphis. Which is pretty on brand for this franchise.

I think we have a good coach finally that knows how to put the right pieces and combinations together on the court instead of trying to shove puzzle pieces together like they've done in the past where things clearly didn't fit.

Carter was always a hustle and effort guy. Turns out he needs to play off another more "real" PG. Sort of like an inverse Barbosa at SG. I attribute his play in the bubble to being alongside Payne, mostly.
Yes, Payne has done him Wonders. Taking away the playmaking role makes him much more tolerable, playing within himself. Not trying to be Iverson.AmareIsGod wrote: ↑Mon Aug 10, 2020 3:05 pmI think we have a good coach finally that knows how to put the right pieces and combinations together on the court instead of trying to shove puzzle pieces together like they've done in the past where things clearly didn't fit.

Edit: What Bobster said. Tyler Johnson is our dead money, though you can pretty much add Frank to that.
Korver and Tyler Johnson were effectively $22M in dead cap space.
Would be his most unacceptable move from my perspective if so. Someone needs to tell him it’ll cost him Booker.Flagrant Fowl wrote: ↑Mon Aug 10, 2020 3:43 pmI'll say it now. Start preparing yourself for a summer of Bobby Short Pockets. I'm expecting him to not spend a dime to improve this roster.
