[SunsRIt]

Cool recent interview with Steve Nash.

[Flagrant Fowl]

I've intentionally avoided that interview. Too soon.

[ShelC]

[Superbone]

They just figured that out? So glad he's gone.

[Mori Chu]

I 0.00% miss Bledsoe. I hated the way he "ran" our offense.

[O_Gardino]

I want to say how badly the Bucks are missing Brogdon, but their record shows that they don't miss much of anything. I just discovered that Giannis at 30.6 mpg is the mpg leader on that team. They have 12 players legitimately averaging over 14 mpg.

I gather the clean up crew gets plenty of minutes after the game is over early in the 3rd quarter.

It's pretty amazing that the cleanup crew has been out there 40 times.

Wow. You mean there's a stat for that? I was just guessing.

I'm just looking at # of games played. They've got 11 guys who average more than 14 mpg in over 37 games played. Sterling Brown has played in 32 games. Other guys have played decent minutes in fewer games.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Total random opinion. Is there anyone else who hates the Brooklyn Nets court? The glossy, monochromatic shades of grey are exactly the type of thing I'd see from a 15 year old on NBA2K. It's just missing some stupid expression like, "it's lit!" in over worked graffiti and Off-White branding all over the place.

[bajanguy008]

The Players gave Devin the 4th most votes behind Luka, Beard and Dame

[Shabazz]

Delon Wright for Aaron Baynes and Jevon Carter?

[SDC]

rubio for bledsoe.

[SDC]

kidding.

[Ring_Wanted]

Call CHI and ask if they want to throw the towel and undo their offseason.

Tyler for Satoransky and Thad Young (both have two more years remaining, but '21-22 is only partially guaranteed at 5M for Sato and 6M for Thad). Offer up to a couple of seconds. They can have any of Okobo, Jerome and Carter as well.

This erases PHX's cap space for next offseason (poor FA class anyway), but also leaves a better, more balanced roster with no bad contracts and a lof of flexibility going forward as we'd still have our 1stR picks, exceptions and a number of expiring or unguaranteed contracts.

Legit backup PG and...I guess Young is no longer a good young player with upside? I feel oooold lol. Still, he'd help with depth at PF although I don't think that he'd be an upgrade as a starter.

[ShelC]

I'd make a play for Markkanen.

I actually like it. Something different.
