    Suns @ Warriors Monday game thread 3-13-2023

    Let's go. If they are going to play a tiny lineup you have to punish them for it

    Kings @ Suns Saturday game thread 3-11-2023

    Yuck. I turned the game back on Justin time to here JJ talking about the "quick release as opposed to the full release". Judging by the score it looks like the Warriors I've had multiple full releases already tonight

    Thunder @ Suns Wednesday game thread 3-8-2023

    God that was something I hadn't thought of in a really long time. Prior to that terrible Injury that team was as good As the Lakers, San Antonio, or anyone else. I mean if Kevin Durant is really out can Kevin Johnson come save us?

    Suns @ Mavericks Sunday game thread 3-5-2023

    Yeah to be clear I thought there were some bad calls that went against both teams. That kind of stuff is going to go your way some games and go the other teams way others. In that particular game Sunday I thought that kind of stuff was about even. The pushing off I thought went uncalled a few...

    Suns @ Mavericks Sunday game thread 3-5-2023

    I'm sorry. This is just not accurate. Luka Dončić is not guarded any more physically than any other player who is a good scorer. He is the one initiating the contact, and it's not even like he's attempting to disguise it. He Rams in the people and then fully extend his arm to shove them a way to...

    Suns @ Mavericks Sunday game thread 3-5-2023

    That was a fun game, but boy would I have been pissed if we actually lost. It's tough to beat any team when they are shooting three pointers like Dallas can for stretches. I have wondered previously here why Wainwright ever sees the floor when the game is still meaningful. He saved us today...

    Suns @ Mavericks Sunday game thread 3-5-2023

    At least we don't have to watch the referees twiddle their thumbs while Doncic just ramrods his way through a much lighter Mikal Bridges. Dallas is a hot/cold team. It wouldn't surprise me if we lose by 20+ and it wouldn't surprise me if we win by that much. I already didn't like the Dallas...

    Watching the Twins succeed from afar.....

    I'm probably going to get killed for this but on most twos and threes if I had to pick between Booker and bridges to defend a few critical possessions at the end of the game I would take Booker. He's not as long as Bridges, but he moves his feet as well or better and he's definitely stronger...

    Watching the Twins succeed from afar.....

    Yeah I thought Dallas really screwed by not keeping Brunson and I'm really not a fan of putting Kyrie Irving next to doncic. And like others of said, I think if the Phoenix Suns had been even reasonably healthy this year they would be one of the top three teams in the west record wise easily...

    Watching the Twins succeed from afar.....

    This. They were my two favorite players on the team before the trade. CJ and then Bridges a close second. I would have been OK if we rolled it back for this year's playoffs and hoped for good health. Like you I always felt well healthy CJ was underrated and I think bridges was slightly...

    Suns @ Hornets Wednesday game thread 3-1-2023

    The sideline reporter on ESPN coverage on Friday night got my hopes up for today's game. I knew better, but I thought maybe it could happen. I'm tempering my excitement for Wednesday's game.

    Suns @ Bucks Sunday game thread 2-26-2023

    As much as I love Booker I'm not sure one on one with holiday is the play I want at the end of the game. And they sure as hell better not try and say there's enough evidence here to overturn the call on the court.

    Clippers @ Suns Thursday game thread 2-16-2023

    Every mason Plumlee screen I've seen so far should have been an obvious foul. He's practically bending over to stick his butt out into people trying to get around him. You would think he saw a shiny penny on the floor each time. Go Josh O!

    Can we talk about Okogie?

    Is he really only 6'4"?? I thought he was at least 6'6"

    I was wondering how long it would take to see the arguments about Flex. Good times

    Durant to Suns

    Exactly. I love bridges. I was so excited when we drafted him, but you described his defense perfectly. Great team defender, good on ball defender, and is much better against ones and twos not named Doncic. If you would have asked me a week ago who I wanted trying to shut down another team's...

    New Owner - Mat Ishbia

    I always think sweet James sounds like the name of an attorney from aJohn Grisham novel.

    After tonight I would like to see very little of Wainwright. Seems like a nice guy but I don't want him on the court outside of blowouts

    Suns Off-season Thread

    They paid attention to the Phoenix Suns because they were actually exciting to watch. And if the league didn't have its head so far up it's collective but it would realize that people want to watch High scoring fun teams and not WWF in the playoffs also. There was that and Mike D never Learning...

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    What moves did we really miss out on? I expect DA, bridges, and cam Johnson to each take steps forward this year. I expect CP 15 to get healthy and play more like you did two years ago. I expect us to finish with a top three Record in the league. Joe

    Duane Washington Jr. signs a two-way contract with the Suns

    I'll say it again. I just don't see anything in him.

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    Exactly. People were complaining about guys like Vladimir Divac flopping, but I really think it was the only way to defend Shaquille O'Neal without double or triple teaming him to force the ball out of his hands. I mean I'm all for posting up and having a little contact, but just dropping your...

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    Doncic is the most guilty of this I've seen since Shaquille O'Neal . he just drops his shoulder right into defenders who have clearly established position, and he does it a lot.

    Suns should snag Montrezl Harrell and Dennis Schroder as the new starting PF and Paul's backup PG.

    Just sign Olivier Sarr and call it a day!
