Yeah, that kind of stuff pointless and the kind of tweet that doesn't need to be posted here. (Not going at you, Saucy. Just an example.)
True.

Saucy just can’t resist a FLEX tweet.

Flex has already jumped the shark. He tweets out his vague predictions and gets 100-200 likes per tweet. He's small potatoes and he often doesn't know what he's talking about.

Flex may jump the shark but he also may not. There are a lot of possible outcomes and every one of them is being explored. Be prepared for a possible shock and if it doesn’t come it was all part of the plan. This shit is Chess, not Checkers. Trust.

Jae Crowder is trending on Twitter and it's not for something positive. People are upset with him for his last line.

Am I missing something? Seems perfectly fine…other than the grammatical error.

It's Twitter. People will go crazy over anything. They're saying that he's "apologizing" for being black.

Why was the girl even posting the DM? Did she have a problem with it? Or just bragging about getting a basketball player to notice her? Seemed like a pretty harmless dm that she could have easily said “no thanks I’m not interested” to. I don’t know seems just like a non-story. These kind of DM’s probably get sent regularly by professional athletes

guys if we know anything about bossman, it is that he can't communicate in writing UNLESS IT IS IN ALL CAPS! Mikal even made fun of him for that recently. I wonder if that is even him.

Suns listed as 4th in the ESPN power rankings for next season. A far cry from the last 10 years.

I love how a lot of sites are listing the Lakers and Warriors ahead of us for next year, despite the fact that we just beat the Lakers and the Warriors didn't even make the playoffs. Folks really want to believe in these superteams and past champions regaining their old glory.

The Lakers I can kind of understand since they added a bunch of players including Westbrook. However, the Warriors over us makes no sense to me.

There are obviously a lot of questions, but the Warriors with a healthy Curry, Klay, and Draymond are multi-champions and have to be considered by big media outlets as a top 3 team.

AND WE HATE TO TALK ABOUT THIS BUT: We did benefit from an injured AD and Murray and Kawhi. Each of those guys are their 1A or 1B player on their teams. Yeah, Book broke his nose and Paul got hurt for several games, but those injuries we faced were huge.

And the Bucks benefited from the injuries to Paul, Booker, and Saric.

Those were a huge benefit, but if everyone is healthy, I am of the opinion that the Suns would have still won those series and were the better team.

As far as the Warriors, Klay was slowing down a bit even prior to the injury. Draymond is not the same player he was either. Both can be very effective and of course Curry doesn't seem to be slowing down one bit. I just think that the league has caught up to them and the page has turned, after being light years ahead of everyone.
