My bet would be on the Suns poor season record leading Booker to be left off of All-NBA in favor of someone like Jalen Brunson. That's not to say Brunson isn't worthy, just an example of a fringe top-15 player this season who'll benefit from at least meeting, if not exceeding, team expectations.

It's still pretty close for a number of guys, so I'll have my All-NBA list next week.

We will all be waiting with baited breath. :P

I think Brunson will make it as well. I think there is room for both.

I feel like Isiah Thomas as Suns GM is almost inevitable. I am mentally preparing myself so I don't up and quit as a Suns fan.

Espo's carrying a lot of water for the new billionaire owner. Maybe his motivations in disputing all of these things are questionable if he and PHNX are trying to stay in the org's good graces?

I'm sure what came out is a hit piece, but it also doesn't mean it can't be true. I just think some were too quick to anoint Ishbia simply because they hated Sarver. Ishbia might be willing to spend more but I think he has as much potential to be a jackass. And if he hires Isiah in any official capacity....

If his jackassness is pointed in a productive direction to the Suns winning a title(s), then I could care less. Unless he is blatantly doing things like sexual harrassment, making racist remarks, or treating people in the organization unfairly which negatively affects the Suns, then I'm going to dismiss it for the most part. If he's dropping F bombs when he wins a title, or has them directed at our rivals, good. Competitiveness shouldn't be underrated.

I mean it's a business. Congrats to him for being good at it. None of this shit sounds like he lied, stole, etc. So he told people if you want to do business with me you can't do business with Dan Gilbert.... WOW HORRIBLE UNBELIEVABLE. "Exclusive" deals have NEVER been made before

Totally agree. This is apples and oranges compared to Sarver. Ishbia is a super competitive guy. We are lucky to have him. I mean, I'm sure he's not a perfect angel. Here who is? He's a ruthless business man. That's how you get to the top.

At least we don’t have to worry about him making crappy draft picks… because we’ll never have any.

I don't even know what that is and I don't want to know.
