What if we try to minimize the overlap between Tyus’s minutes and KD’s? It seems like KD’s a big reason Ty looks kind of irrelevant out there. Their minutes aren’t going to add to less than 48 so there will have to be some overlap, but we can limit it.

Booker record watch:

He is now 90 points away from tying Walter Davis for most Suns franchise points. He will most likely get the record while on the current road trip.

The Tyus stuff is what we've been talking about all year. I don't think there's any good answer at this point.

He’s just not a great fit tbh. Not really his fault as it’s more the roster construction. KD and Book both like the offense to run through them a lot(hard to blame them) and we already are small and don’t play a lot of defense without Tyus. He’s really a backup pg…and he makes more sense on a team that doesn’t have offensive on ball stars. Give him an elite roll guy, some shooters, and an off ball offensive star(Book could do this, but I’m thinking like a Lauri Markkanen…Zach Lavine would be good.

A Tyus/LaVine/Murphy/Markkanen/Gobert team would be pretty good and would let Tyus play pg and run the show.

Should bench him when he's 1 point shy, so that he can set the record in a home game and get the huge standing ovation he rightfully deserves.

He can score 22 a game…or just sit him against OKC(we aren’t winning anyways) then he can score 30 a game and set the record at home vs the Jazz

Not likely scenarios but I'm sure we'll celebrate the accomplishment at our next home game, which is against the Jazz next Friday.

With her presence on the Suns broadcasts and commercials and stuff, she was probably the most visible member of the team despite having a teammate who has been worldwide headline news. Weird that they would let her go, she's such a great ad for the team.

They traded her for one of the best players in the league so it’s cool. Makes me wonder if Taurasi comes back for one year, this mercury team has a chance to be special.
