He probably spearheaded the whole thing. No way you want to ride with a guy you can't trust.
Love, Hurts.

He hasn’t welcomed his new teammates?

And I hope Book does stay off the socials
I don't remember him saying anything about the FA period

Did he post stuff about KD ?
I'm pretty sure it's gonna be "In the league long enough to know it's a business", might even drop the "still root for those guys" which I think was the kinda things he said about the Twin.

People already saying he Hates Ayton so I doubt he gives more stuff for the masses to psychoanalyse

Yeah I think he'll probably stop short of statements about free agency 2026 in this case lol

At best Bol can be our Ayton stopper, and that’s probably the only big he’s stopping. You can afford to get lost and turned around defensively if your opponent somehow gets lost and loses the hoop on offense.
Lol. What do people predict when Suns sees Ayton against Blazers. Book gonna dap up and hug Ayton?
It happens in 14 days btw.
We play the Blazers twice in preseason. Back-to-back. These schedulers know EVERYTHING.

It’s the teams that schedule their own pre-season games. So they actually might have known lol.

I'm sure they'll be cordial, but I wouldn't look for it to be some kind of bromance.
Kobe or Jordan would go out an destroy. I want to see that from Book. But I think he likes to beef with bullies in the hunt for winning big games. He’s more mild.

NICE! I just bought me a new puter... He didn't skimp and it's pretty close to mine. Has the same monitor as me too :). Nicely done!

Who do we think is gonna be the most divisive suns player next year? Who’s our new DA or Oubre? Who else has been divisive? Bender? Chriss?

I think expectations will be somewhat low for Nurkic so I don’t think it’ll be him. I don’t really see it being Book or KD unless one of them has a rough year. Beal could be that guy if he’s bad on defense and spends a lot of time off ball.

Maybe it’ll be Grayson Allen actually. The divide will be between the people who can’t see past their hatred of him to realize he’s a decent player. Or maybe we’ll have a season where everyone is all on the same page haha.

I don't think there is any divisive players left, Beal probably comes the closest for me just because of the contract and having to be a 3rd wheel. Allen could be it just because he's a douche, but I like his game otherwise.
Love, Hurts.

I haven't heard he's in Phoenix yet. Media Day is on Monday. It'll be interesting to see if like Ainge, Allen can be likable if playing for YOUR Phoenix Suns.
