At least better than William Bedford, eh, LL? Could be worse.

Good lord ...

There was a brief moment where Suns pundits envisioned a second front line of Nick Vanos (7-2) William Bedford (7-0) and Ed Pinckney (6-9). Bedford was an undermotivated malcontent, and Vanos died in an airline crash. Pinckney had an OK career, but nothing special.

Apparently no Danny AInge, Jerrod Mustaf (not that we'll miss him) or Kurt Rambis (who was waived during the season).

I see. It's a 92-93 reunion. I guess Alex Stivrins makes a little more sense.

Good for Payne! Glad some of his teammates showed up.

No DA? I guess he hates the entire team confirmed.

Monty said he couldnt go.

Flex forever hedging his information. He literally said nothing lol.

Always thought we'd be full strength by the end of January, "ramp up" going into All-Star and then hit the ground running after All-Star break and hopefully hit our stride towards the end of the year/playoffs.

We have a 5 game road trip at the start of February, could go 4-1 or 3-2 at worst - Boston, Detroit, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Indiana. Wish we could've started with Detroit instead of flying to Boston, then Detroit and then to BK. Just unnecessary extra travel. But that's a big road trip for us before coming back home to the Kings and Clips before the break.

Yes I generally enjoy Flex tweets because they usually have good information. He's been literally wrong or had nothing of substance since this summer. Getting kind of annoying. Seems like he's doing it just to build his brand now.

What? You lost me here. That's a tough road trip. I'll be happy if we don't go 0-5. But maybe that's recency bias. Hopefully, we'll have a healthy Book and Cam Johnson by then. Also, are we ever going to get Major Payne this season?

If we're full strength, which I think we will be, we can definitely beat Detroit, Atlanta and Indy.

True but no guarantees. Atlanta and Indy are certainly not easy outs.

It’s Jan 15th. I guess anyone that thought James Jones had something up his sleeve was giving him too much credit.

Everyone's got these arbitrary dates they're throwing out there expecting something to happen. The only date that matters is Thursday February 9th at 3 pm EST. And even then, Jones may not have the approval from whoever makes the final call on any trades.

He's busy touring in his college basketball accolade tour. I'm worried that when he's healthy, he'll be more Payne from last season than this one.
