The Book 1 sold out in 5 minutes this morning in Korea and I couldn't get my payment information fast enough to buy them. So dumb.

I wish Walter Davis would have made the HOF while he was still alive.

Suns owner Mat Ishbia intent on doing ‘whatever it takes to win’ championship

https://arizonasports.com/story/3543032 ... mpionship/
Another NBA trade deadline, another big swing for Phoenix Suns owner Mat Ishbia.

After landing superstar Kevin Durant last season, Ishbia went out and added an instant impact player in Royce O’Neale in addition to forward David Roddy.

But with those additions came added financial commitments for Ishbia. Per Arizona Sports’ John Gambadoro, bringing on O’Neale and Roddy added another $20 million to the team’s salary and luxury tax payment.

It was just another day at the office for Ishbia, who remains intent on doing “whatever it takes to win” regardless of the dollar signs attached...

Since we lost out on Delonte, who for the last spot is being targeted? Thoughts?

My son got the Books. He seems to have a knack for it. I didn’t get them either.

I think we just keep the spot open. Fill it with Saben Lee or Udoka Azubuike

You might want to turn your volume down a little for this Nash tribute. Just sayin', bro.

Well, I sent in two entries for the G-League Name the Team Contest -

The Valley Fever
The Sonoran Dogs

I've had both and would recommend the later over the former.
I'd go with the Valley Boyz (and get "The Valley" jersey back), it would be the coolest G-league team ever.
But it's impossible since it's trademarked... So the Phoenix Helios? (to match the Mercury)

I just hope it's better than the Memphis Hustle, Rip City Remix, Oklahoma Blue, Capital City Go-Go and Raptors 905.

Now watch them go with something like the "Suns Orbit" or "Suns Burn" :(
