I'm thinking the same. To me, I didn't really care much if we were anywhere between 2-5. Fultz is clearly the #1 pick, but after that the difference between the next 4-5 players is marginal and based on team need and scheme.

Sure, picking 2 or 3 gives us more leverage, but we can still get an elite player at 4 in this draft.
I hope you're right. I don't know much about the players after Fultz and Ball. Who do you like after them? Who are your top 2 after them?

Booker was drafted #13 which is generally considered an unlucky number.

Special needs kids are obviously unlucky in general.
You're just being a worthless POS. Wishing death on Magic via his HIV killing him. Talking negatively about people with special needs. Why don't you GTFO and stop posting for awhile. You're actually being super offensive and disgusting. It's one thing to be disappointed and pissed off. It's another to be a s*** human.
How am I talking negatively about people with special needs? You don't think that their unlucky? My brother is a special needs kid and I have no problem admitting that he was born unlucky.

And the Magic thing was obviously just rage.

Really? Getting offended by silly things on a sports board is pretty out there as well. Do you honestly believe he really wants someone dead? Chill with the PC. :)
Yeah the Magic thing is obviously a joke.

You're right. The Suns constantly are the beneficiary of the state of the league. All those banners. You know as well as we all do that we get s*** on by the NBA on a regular basis. But hypocrite on we shall.
Open your mind. Stop playing the victim so easily and look at the whole picture.

JJ ... good to see you back again. It's been awhile.

Unfortunately, you were right on time to witness the Suns getting another greaseless rogering by the NBA front office...
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

We weren't going to be disappointed by #4, right? Right, guys?

I'm disappointed. :(

Well, this is why the NBA does this lottery. To discourage owner like Sarver from tanking.

Guys, lay off each other. Let's keep it to how screwed we are and can't catch a break for 50 years of drafts. We've moved up a sum total of once in the lottery and that was to get Armon Gilliam. Meh.

I do wonder if we shop the pick. Doubt it, but I wonder what we could get.

Yes quite a while. I debated whether to join in the festivities or not but got talked into it. It pretty much ended up
the way I expected.

I'm not going to keep wasting my time with this. You made the pretty grotesque statement that we shouldn't ever send Devin Booker and a special needs kid to the draft ever again. Then followed it up with "special needs kids are obviously unlucky in general". As someone that actually has special needs people in my family, I would never say they are unlucky and that bringing them around brings bad luck. My family member is lucky to have great parents that love him and make sure he gets the treatment he needs. He's lucky in many ways and functions, though differently, in ways many people will never be able to when it comes to art and music.

We don't see this through the same lense. You can continue but I have nothing more to add.

Go Suns.

Good thing we passed the Lakers up in losses at the end of the year. Who needs the burden of taking that pesky number 2 pick? Of course, the order would have remained unchanged had we swapped lottery positions.
