Booker had some sort of trinket I think the kid gave him, he held it up, but they didnt even ask him about it. Nice Job ESPN.

Can the Suns please never send Devin Booker and a special needs kid to the draft ever again please?

Booker was drafted #13 which is generally considered an unlucky number.

Special needs kids are obviously unlucky in general.

Not that I am hoping injury on anyone but wouldn't that be better for us? It isn't like we are going to trade him now.

I think we will play better without him. If not better at least close to as well. This will also give Booker more time to develop with the ball in his hands.

Don't get offended by half the the stuff I'm about to post, I'm rage posting.

This is the worst I've felt about the Suns since Ron Artest caught Kobe's air ball and hit the buzzer beater in 2010 WCFs.

His first name is "Wyc" what did you expect?

Pretty sure he thought he was repping the Bruins up there.
Good point.

Good chance Jackson is there at 4. I think you take him if he is. Fultz to C's Ball to LAL is pretty easy. The Sixers roster screams GUARD. Think BC will go with someone like Smth or Fox

You're just being a worthless POS. Wishing death on Magic via his HIV killing him. Talking negatively about people with special needs. Why don't you GTFO and stop posting for awhile. You're actually being super offensive and disgusting. It's one thing to be disappointed and pissed off. It's another to be a shitty human.

On the Plus side, McDonaugh may keep his Kentucky players streak alive!

I'm thinking the same. To me, I didn't really care much if we were anywhere between 2-5. Fultz is clearly the #1 pick, but after that the difference between the next 4-5 players is marginal and based on team need and scheme.

Sure, picking 2 or 3 gives us more leverage, but we can still get an elite player at 4 in this draft.

Yep. I prefer the non guaranteed contracts too in the NFL.
At least the NFL has parity and is constantly competitive going into a season. The NBA, where the lottery is a fraud, players get guaranteed money, best friends team up together and super teams unite. Until LeBron retires or Golden State suffers a falling out of friendships, what's the point? We all know who's going to represent the East and West every season.
My thoughts exactly.

Really? Getting offended by silly things on a sports board is pretty out there as well. Do you honestly believe he really wants someone dead? Chill with the PC. :)

No one would be bitching and moaning about parity if the Suns were benefiting from the current state of the league. Stop being hypocrites.

How am I talking negatively about people with special needs? You don't think that their unlucky? My brother is a special needs kid and I have no problem admitting that he was born unlucky.

And the Magic thing was obviously just rage.

You're right. The Suns constantly are the beneficiary of the state of the league. All those banners. You know as well as we all do that we get shit on by the NBA on a regular basis. But hypocrite on we shall.
