In case anyone is in doubt, I want to clarify that the account JAKE_ROWDER is a joke account and is not the real Jae Crowder. It's just for a laugh.
This is the saddest thing I've ever heard. I honestly thought it was him. The execution was perfect though! Like, would anyone be all that surprised if the real Jae Crowder (or any player really) infiltrated the site to defend themselves. I mean, most of us are advocating for adding a guy who uses a burner phone on twitter.
Not your finest moment, wpmiller.
I bet there's a few players that read the site occasionally, and I wouldn't be surprised if there's been a couple over the years that have signed up for accounts. Mori might have a better idea though, or at least if there's anything blatantly suspicious.
I hope you're more careful with your phishing emails and texts, wpmiller.

I don't know if anybody from the team or staff or whatever has ever made accounts here or posted here. I don't dig through any of the user data because I don't want to violate anybody's privacy. I don't look at any emails or real names or IP addresses or whatever. And nobody has secretly confided to me that they're really some Suns associated person in disguise. My guess is that no such person posts here because they have better things to do. And, frankly, because we aren't the biggest Suns site, partly due to the fact that it is literally impossible to make an account here right now. Oops.

Love the .net, but I highly doubt any players are creating burner accounts to find out what the 15 (anonymous) active users who post on here are saying.
One guy I was pretty "meh" on was Kuzma. He was a former Laker who acted like a knucklehead while he was there. Got traded and had LAker stank on him for a while and really struggled. I saw him play in person Friday against the Pacers. I pretty much watched him the whole time as I didn't care about either team. I was impressed with what I saw and not just because he had a nice game. He carried himself like he had something to prove. He's a competitor. Not sure what other players think of him at this point but I would be cool with him coming to the Suns at this point.
One person who I was not impressed with who I've seen people ask for is Deni Advijda (sp?) That kid looks like hes got a good basketball IQ but he really doesn't have the ability. I just saw him be limited by his body. He's like a smaller version of Saric right now.

Of course Crowder trade needs to happen but I ain’t panicking with this 4 game losing streak. We need to nail this trade and idgaf if it takes to the deadline, I really hope not tho.

Agreed 100%. Feels like there's an overreaction to the losing streak now but I don't want to see Jones make a trade just to make a trade. We need the right player.

I’m with you guys…we’re still positioned well. We’ve lost 4 in a row but 3 of them are to 1 seeds. Do we have some issues we need to work out? Of course, but better we’re seeing our flaws now. Last season we didn’t see them until the playoffs when it was too late. I’ll be upset if we do nothing after the deadline, but I’m not worried before then.

This team has already peaked, there is nothing left here with Paul as the initiator and we know Booker can't be a full time PG. You should definitely be worried that Jones is gonna sell the future for a short term band-aid now that it's too late.

We’ll see what he does. I don’t think we have much of a shot to contend this year, but I don’t necessarily think it has to be short term vs future. Acquiring someone like Kuzma can benefit both. He may not push us to title contention this year, but he’s still young and would make this team better in the future too.
It may not even involve sending Crowder because I think the Magic might just want an expiring contract, but my new hope is to land Mo Bamba and RJ Hampton with sending a first rounder to Orlando.

I'd be pretty underwhelmed with either EG or KJ. Both would be better, but neither are really moving the needle IMO nor are they addressing the frontcourt need. I'd hope Jones would have another trade lined up for a big with other salaries like Dario or Shamet.

Would you play Mo Bamba over Biyombo and Landale?
Bamba gives you defense and the occasional three.
Landale's play has been uneven and Biyombo can't throw the ball in the ocean outside of five feet...

Okay someone send the police over to this guys house, someone has clearly murdered him and is now posting on his behalf just taunting us by offering to trade first round picks instead of trade FOR first round picks
