I would be stunned if it happened. I mean I want it to, but I put it at like 5% that the suns deal Bledsoe.
Mcdonaugh just seemed to high on him.
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

I'd take a flyer on Jones for 43.

But isn't PJIII still highly touted as a versatile defender carrying the depleted Thunder early in the season and during the last playoffs?

Pretty sure 43 is not going to make the Thunder taking our phone call, not saying that I would not love to get him for it.

Look at who comes in dead last. Somehow he still played rotation minutes for us down the stretch.

Porzingis the second coming of Nikoloz Tskitishvili

I like whenever a white tall player who can shoot comes out it's always comparisons to Dirk -- but we all know there has literally been one dirk in like 10+ years so the odds are he's just gonna be another average to decent role player - not a Dirk.

No f'n way he's Skita. Bite your tongue. He actually plays and has legitimate projections of NBA production.

That's the odds on every player coming out in the draft.

That is the reality but people are talking about Porzingis like he's a god that is going to fall from the heavens and the DIRK 2.0 is very heavily part of his 'mystique' which is likely not going to be the case thats all I'm saying'

He is 7-3, runs the floor like a deer (a really big deer), has excellent jumping ability, and a smooth shot beyond the NBA three. He also has no glaring injury issues. That demands some attention.

On the other hand. He is young, skinny (230 on that frame is skinny), not very strong, not as good a defensive rebounder or shot blocker as he should be.

Reality.

The Celtics are going to go hard after him too, according to multiple sources. They want Love, Robin Lopez, and Paul Pierce.

Would've been amazing with Goran, not sure now with Bledsoe running the show.

This is a classic chickenshit Suns FO move. They will go hard after some player that they know they have no chance with (Kobe, Lebron, Melo, Love, etc.) and then when the guy predictably doesn't come here, they'll say, "Well, we tried our best."
