Will forever hate the Jackson turd burger, dude showed nothing at Kansas that said NBA lottery pick. All I wanted was Tatum or Fox. Sigh.
Hmm. I remember you not liking Tatum. :twisted:

Seriously though, we missed out on both Tatum and Brown by a thread.
Not sure if you're serious or not lol. That was my guy.
Note the twisted emoticon. You made it abundantly clear at the time.
I'd trade Booker for him right now.
But Boston wouldn’t

Let me just say that I love that Dame is often fighting our fights for us. I’m a huge Dame fan and he’s making me a bigger one.

Seeing Dame shit on PatBev is a small bit of joy in a sad basketball week.

I still can't believe we're not in the conference finals. As rough as we looked the last few weeks, the remaining teams are all so beatable. If we would have just rounded back into form, this really could have been our year.

Yup.
I think a fully healthy Boston team would have beaten this version of us, but not the one from 2 months ago. Otherwise, I think we could have taken Golden State and Miami, even in our present form. What a waste!

Yes, absolutely. Many years the NBA has one or two "juggernaut" teams that seem almost impossible to beat, like the Lebron teams over the years or the peak Curry Warriors. In those years it just felt like even if we were noticeably better, we still would never be able to get past the juggernaut. This year there really isn't a dominant team. Every team left is very good but also imperfect and totally beatable. WE should have been the juggernaut this year. But we choked and threw it away. A real lost opportunity. I think both last year and this year, the NBA title was just sitting there, up for grabs. We should have taken advantage. I think we'll look back on these past two years for a long time wondering about what might have been.

Would be cool if Ayton took a contract similar to one of his "peers" who actually achieved something.

Read he was the first Sun to make the 1st team All Defense since Raja Bell. Good for him.

He is going to opt-out, right? I guess it would be hard with so few teams with cap space, but he needs to lock in his last big contract. He is already on the wrong side of 30, and if he can lock in a 4 year deal that should guarantee him another 120-150M for his career, as opposed to the 36 he has on his option for this coming season. Unless a lot more teams have cap space next year.

Would you want that head case tied to your organization and eating up your cap for 4-5 years?
