Don't necessarily agree with that assessment of the front office.

Easy to shoot on the ambulance, where were they when we traded for beal? Just poor journalism...

JJ may have said that stuff about the draft but we can't argue that he hasn't drafted well lately. Although, he did allow Camara to be thrown in the Ayton deal.

Considering how late he was drafted it’s understandable that JJ didn’t realize what we had. I certainly didn’t.

He looked good in training camp and preseason. He was showing signs.Cap wrote: ↑Sat Feb 22, 2025 8:51 amConsidering how late he was drafted it’s understandable that JJ didn’t realize what we had. I certainly didn’t.

OK, I obviously don't remember the details but I saw him play with the Suns. Maybe it was summer league.JeremyG wrote: ↑Sat Feb 22, 2025 9:09 amUmm…the trade happened before training camp.Superbone wrote: ↑Sat Feb 22, 2025 8:56 amHe looked good in training camp and preseason.

Yea he looked solid in SL. But even still, we're talking about the 52nd pick out of Dayton. I think some of us were annoyed he was included in the deal but I doubt anyone would've killed the deal over him. It's more a credit to the FO that they identified the talent.
Re: Suns News: Week 18 (2/17 - 2/24)
Nah, it makes it look like they just got lucky, not that they identified the talent. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let him go so easily.ShelC wrote: ↑Sat Feb 22, 2025 9:23 amYea he looked solid in SL. But even still, we're talking about the 52nd pick out of Dayton.

And tonight he helped lead the Blazers to a 53-point win (their largest margin of victory in franchise history—55 seasons) with 20 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 steal in only 28 minutes, with a game-high +45 (tying LaMarcus Aldridge’s franchise record)!

Given the very poor draft assets the Suns will have, I'm all for sticking with James Jones, who seems to draft better late than early.
