    Big man? You talking rebounding passing center. Stretch four? What?

    New Owner - Mat Ishbia

    We needed to replace CP3, Ayton was a problem, and probably needed a pf, although Cam Johnson was not bad in that role. So we needed two starters and a deeper bench. Plus, the coaching was going off the rails. But we still gave up way too much for KD.

    Jokic plus anyone will be a tough game.

    Cmon. No one. However, he was the best shooter in the draft and the logical pick at the moment.

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    I am confused. He said a big and mentioned Okoro--as in Isaac, I assume. Not sure how Okobo, got mentioned. I am not really interested in either one.

    Suns to Sign Point Guard Ty Ty Washington on a Two-way Contract

    We have maybe four other pg's more likely be useful. So this signing is just camp stuff to me.

    I do think he has a chance to grow up and be a true force in this league. His problem is between his ears. The question is whether he loves basketball enough to pursue it.

    Suns to Sign Point Guard Ty Ty Washington on a Two-way Contract

    We have to develop some sort of farm system for bringing up new talent. So the G-league and two-ways should help. I am amazed that the NBA does not develop talent this way more often.

    Server was extremely arrogant. He did build a new practice facility after Trevor Ariza shamed the entire organization over it.

    As a father with two daughters, it puts a tear in my eye. Every girl needs a dad that will love her, protect her, and encourage her.

    Suns to Sign Point Guard Ty Ty Washington on a Two-way Contract

    There was a coaching change. I can hear it now. "So Bud, we want you to coach the Suns." "You need to get me a pg, or I am not coming." "Ok. No problem. How about three?"

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    Our best bet is to develop the young bigs we have. By bigs, it seems like you are specifically talking about pf. The NBA isn't so much like that any more. There are basically three positions. Lead guard, wing, and big. Teams will usually play one lead guard, two wings and two bigs or three...

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    Interesting Hoopshype article before Tyus Jones signed with Phoenix. He wanted a starting position, he wanted to play on a better team than the Wizards, and he wanted to get paid. No team other than the Suns could offer two of the three. He has been pegged as the best back up pg in the...

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    Fair enough. However, we are not going to add any more size right now that will make a difference unless we trade someone. Anyone we sign now would be so far down on the depth chart as to be inconsequential. To me, if you wanted to add someone who is a big, who can shoot, who plays D (as per...

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    I am really hoping the chemistry that Tyus sees will materialize. Last year we needed a pg in the worst way. We also needed committed defenders. Royce is a 6-6 forward. Little is a 6-6 forward. Both are listed that way almost everywhere. Mike Connolly is 6-0 and AE is 6-4 so unless Minny...

    We've got Nurk, Plumlee, and Oso, and we can also run Bol or KD as a big in a pinch. I think we are ok.

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    Monte Morris and to a lesser extent Grayson Allen. Monte is a better defender than Tyus, and is still a good distributor.

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    If you can't offer a lot of money, offer a lot of role. But you better keep your word. I would tell him that the starting point guard position is his to lose. He can have it, but he will have to work to keep it because other players will be pushing.

    Didn’t mean to offend. I could have said, Jones is the very obvious choice. But I am typing with my thumbs and “duh” was a lot easier.

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    I will be surprised if Dunn is not a better defender than Okogie almost immediately. He has Okigies speed and instincts but in a better more versatile body. Dunn just seems like a smarter player. Okogie is a Tasmanian Devil. It’s almost all effort. Dunn is taller. Both are surprisingly...

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    Jones. duh. Sorry. Thats how it seems to me. There is no way he decided to come here unless he starts. Some players want to play. They want recognition. For Tyus, starting with Book, Durant, and Beal could be career-defining. He sees how he fits with that group. My best guess is that our...

    Suns sign Tyus Jones

    He gets to start on a team with KD, Book, and Beal. And by now the FA money is likely drying up.

    Roddy traded to Atlanta for Liddell

    Ha! I called that one before Gambo. Just mentioned the best option, though. Good on Ishbia.
