I saw that and thought it was a joke. Didn't realize you could actually buy it. :lol:

I gotta say, I'm not a fan of glorifying this guy who punched the Nuggets fans. I don't think Book and the team should be promoting that kind of behavior. Glad he's a passionate Suns fan, and I realize that the Nugs fans instigated things with him before he punched them. But still, if he's literally famous for saying "Suns in Fo" and then punching two other fans, I don't think he should be getting lauded and send autographed merch for that.

It isn't like the Nuggets guys just were talking. They dumped a beer on his head and took swings at him that missed. If you don't swing at a guy after he dumps a beer on you and takes a sucker punch, you will continually be attacked.

Was afraid of this with our success, especially with Green, whom Monty has credited with halftime/defensive adjustments. Would be a good opportunity for him but would hate to lose him.

They were also drunk out of their mind.

I see nothing wrong in his actions. He was watching the game. They poured a beer on his head. He didn’t retaliate. Then they took two swings at him. Then he defended himself.

Jokers flagrant foul on Payne left him in a heap on the ground. Booker stood up for his guy and got a technical for it. I think he would do that 99 times out of 100 and most people would respect that. I think Booker respected the guy and wanted to express his respect for his actions.

Works or me.

The fact that it’s immediately after the finals makes it better imo. It’s just two weeks, basically just one more series. Then just rest until training camp.

Ibaka Green and Harrell were all good signings. But I think we needed Crowder more than those guys needed their signees.

Ya think? How many minutes did Harrell play in our playoff series compared to Crowder?

He fell out of rotation after the Drummond signing, but since the beginning, Lakers kind of were more on the side to hurt the Clippers instead of looking for a true Howard replacement. They deserve to look him decline his PO and left them capped off without a way to replace him. Actually, he should come here to be the athletic, high energy 4/5 we lack so bad.

Don't forget that's a good time for the players to know each other better and to convince someone to come to your team...
