I agree that sometimes he's made bad passes and so on. But I can't help but look at his overall contribution and stats this year and consider him one of the biggest positives on the team. I mean the guy's probably going to be 2nd team All-NBA this year. That counts for something. He's also brought it on the defensive end, one of the few Suns to do so. Most of the things I am upset about with Durant are related to our broken offense where KD or others try to create 1-on-1. And I don't blame that on KD or the players.Superbone wrote: ↑Tue Mar 19, 2024 1:38 pmI'm with you on the first two. KD has been frustrating me especially as of late. Making horrible passes to the worst choices rather than being aggressive offensively. I'm also happy with O'Neale other than the 3 point shooting slump but it wasn't for lack of effort. He got back on track in Milwaukee. The team is missing leadership though, the same leadership that KD mocks.

Did Bol and IT actually pose for that photo? If so, cool homage to the old Bol/Bogues photo. But it looks a little Photoshoppy.

Every player they sign gets built up in the press. They even had an article on the rosey future of David Roddy!

Re: Suns News: Week 22 (3/18 - 3/24)
I for one was an IT fan and am excited to have him back. I’m not really expecting much, but it would be cool if he’s good.
I think especially in seasons like this, you have to find ways to root for things other than wins and losses. Well if you want to find enjoyment in the team. I get why people are out on this team, but I’m still a fan of a lot of the players and take some joy in their individual success. Of course team success is what I want most, but gotta find some joy in the little things too.

It's just a test run to see how fans react to guys named Isaiah Thomas being involved with the Suns.
Love, Hurts.

Nope, just don't see the excitement of a 35yo 5'9" SG being added to the team.The Bobster wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 11:23 amDid he kill your dog or something?

The Suns could sign Jesus Christ and TOO would find a way to be unimpressed.
(TBF, I'm not expecting anything of IT either. I just don't see the problem with rallying around giving him a chance on a 10-day.)

I would like to see it. He comes back as a basketball player. Says he's done the religious thing and it didn't work out for him. He'd have the flowing hair a la Steve Nash. He'd have mad hops, sneaky dunks, and a dead-eye three. I think he could do wonders for us.

I'd rather have Moses. He'd part defenses in the lane and drive in for uncontested layups ...Superbone wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2024 3:24 pmI would like to see it. He comes back as a basketball player.

If it wasn't already obvious to anyone. It's really an audition to take Saban Lee's spot.
