    If this is the roster where do we stand?

    I think it definitely hurts as far as depth add center, but as long as DA and BB remain healthy I'm really not that worried about the quality of play dropping off. I only have my bad memory and no numbers in front of me to support this, but my recollection was that we continue to get strong...

    Suns Las Vegas Summer League 2022

    I still just don't see it with Wainwright. I don't know if they are looking him to become like a PJ Tucker. Maybe I haven't watched him enough, but he doesn't look like he moves his feet anywhere near as well as PJ Tucker. And I don't see the boundless energy of a PJ Tucker.

    The Ayton Plan

    I thought the assumption was that in order to get a Kevin Durant that DeAndre Ayton would have to be the central trade piece for the Phoenix Suns. Wow Brooklyn may be saying they don't want him in return it sounds like he would be going to a third team like Utah or maybe Indiana. Like I said...

    Suns Las Vegas Summer League 2022

    OK yeah, like what we are seeing from Sarr. If he nails a three point shot I'll be asking Smith who?

    The Ayton Plan

    I wish something would happen, but it seems pretty obvious that the Kevin Durant situation is holding up most major moves in the NBA right now. I also think any sooner knows that the Phoenix Suns are going to match an offer sheet for him. I'll change my username to "DA made me look like a huge...

    Suns Off-season Thread

    It always seemed to me that we would get the#4 draft pick in an obvious three pick draft. Like when we drafted Marshall out of North Carolina I absolutely hated the pick, but I can't remember who that came out after I actually wanted. There were several drafts like that where anybody I wanted...

    NBA Free Agency and Trades 2022

    I never felt like the problem was too short a rotation but rather the players who were or weren't part of it. For the life of me I couldn't figure out how Aaron Holiday was sitting on the bench while other guards he was better than on both sides of the floor were getting minutes. Call that said...

    Why I don't want Durant

    That team what is a lot of fun to watch… on office. Offensively the trio of Steve Nash, Amare Stoudemire, and the older, fatter Shaquille O'Neal was one of the worst pick and roll defenses imaginable. While I think it's more likely than not that deAndre Ayton will be playing for another team...

    Why I don't want Durant

    Yeah I hear you. Without actually looking at contracts and what teams have to offer the only one I could come up with is Denver. I just can't stomach the idea of the Lakers actually getting out from under that horrible deal for Westbrook at a minimal cost and returning a player who at least from...

    Why I don't want Durant

    But that's because of the money he is making and that he's apparently pushing for a move to the Lakers. Besides, do you believe that the media reports every single inquiry or offer made? I think we'll hear about other potential deals once the Kevin Durant thing works itself out. Kyrie Irving is...

    Why I don't want Durant

    Where did the information about the trade discussions at the deadline come from anyways? I mean I guess I wouldn't be surprised if there were some informal discussions initiated by other teams, but am I the only one who calls BS on the idea that they were out shopping him around with the best...

    Why I don't want Durant

    I don't think it makes a lot of sense that Utah would be going after DA in a max sign and trade AND unloading mitchell. I have to believe they want those two pair together and so Utah's part in the deal would be draft picks and peripheral players. That said, if you could work out and from a...

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    I obviously have some real questions about DA. I remember getting lit up here during his first Summer league game when I freaked out about his lack of Basic fundamentals. That said, I think even if the money was equal I would rather have DA than RG going into next season. As others have pointed...

    The Ayton Plan

    Because when he's healthy Zion doesn't play like a p***Y and he's one of the most marketable players in the NBA. If I was an owner I would be terrified to give him that kind of contract but I understand it.

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    doesn't he likely get a 5th year and bigger raises out of a sign and trade deal?

    Suns make a trade for Center Jock Landale

    Depends on the lineup you are facing. I mean DA is nice and long, but Saric has a solid base. He does not get shoved around by smaller players… Even guards like DA does. Unlike a lot of people here I like Saric. I think he's a great player off the bench. I wouldn't want him trying to guard...

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    I just can't help but think DA is going to screw this up in some way. I keep waiting for breaking news that he has signed an offer sheet with Indiana. I hope the Phoenix Suns have made it clear that they will match it.

    2022-23 Around the NBA Thread

    I have to disagree regarding Simmons. The only thing he really can't do is shoot. He does everything else and does it all very very well. He's probably the most versatile defender outside green. The complete lack of shooting is definitely a problem, especially from the free throw line, but he's...

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    Go to sleep yeah call Anna so I choir I'm sorry. Are you saying that if we have a healthy Kevin Durant on this team minus let's say DA and either Cam Johnson were Mikal Bridges you don't think we are a better team? Look I love Bridges. He was my favorite player in the draft, but if I want a...

    Suns Off-season Thread

    It's not that they don't want him. They don't want him at 30+ million dollars per year win, and it seems like there might not be anybody who wants to make that much. I could see it if there were serious questions about his aggressiveness and focus. It's really frustrating. Joe

    The Ayton Plan

    Exactly. We've got people saying "the market has spoken" which is Shirley a little premature (And stop calling me Shirley), but then you have others replying that if there were more teams with the room to sign him it would be different. That's not the market though, is it? I actually believe JJ...

    The Ayton Plan

    Or the easier explanation is that they realize he's restricted in the Phoenix Suns are likely to match an offer for him unless they get a kings ransom return. The other possibility is that they just started watching a lot of video on him and realized is really soft, disappears frequently, and...

    The Ayton Plan

    Am I the only one here who would want no part of Zach Lavine? I could be wrong but isn't he about to get paid big? If that's the case I would rather lose DA for nothing.
