Without exaggerating his ability, his game is closer to MJ/Kobe with his post-up game, footwork, fadeaway jumpers. It's why playing him 35ft away from the basket and hunting 3s isn't the best use of his skills or reliable offense. He's good enough at it I guess but it's not what he does best.

What better team to return against than one that will offer zero resistance?

There have been some bad teams over the years, but this has easily been the one I've hated the most.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

And I thought last year was frustrating.

A nice eulogy for the 2020s Phoenix Suns.

Depressing, mainly because it’s accurate.

Huh? I don't have a problem with it at all. Did you hear him talk about it or are you just reading the quote? Why not let the young guys get the experience in a meaningless final game of the season?

That's cool as long as KD isn't on the Suns next year.

When did we ever think Devin freaking Booker would ever not want, much less say out loud that he does not want, to play a basketball game? Unbelievable.

I really don't get where you guys are coming from. Must be the Booker hating glasses. Why not play the young guys in a final regular season, no meaning game on the road? Looks like you're reaching for reasons to hate. That's all I can figure.

Just because people don’t align with your perception of things doesn’t make it wrong. It’s a discussion thread, didn’t realize you guys were going to get so butt hurt about it. I’ll just shut up.

Boy, are you misreading my comment! At what point did I discourage discussion? Instead of getting butt-hurt for no reason, maybe you can explain yourself?

I'd really like to try and understand yours and Jeremy's line of thinking here.

Lmao this season just needs to be over. Fighting over silly stuff.

I’m with ‘bone on this. Last game of a disaster season, nothing to play for, young guys get to play big minutes. Book a 10 year veteran. It’s okay for him to skip the last game. Literally EVERY STAR IN THIS LEAGUE WOULD BE DOING THE SAME THING HERE!!!


Anyways. Dbacks at 1:10 if you prefer. Or go watch Warfare

I have no idea what Warfare is but I generally discourage that type of thing. ;)
