    Grizzlies @ Suns Sunday game thread 1-7-2024

    There's no point waiting. The Suns should trade him before he gets hurt again.

    * Big Three all play at least 35 minutes each * Nurkic goes for 18 and 19 * Only 12 turnovers * Still lose at home to one of the worst teams in the league Time to pull the plug. This team is going nowhere and it's only downhill from here.

    Nice way of evading the language censor. You could have also said "mule muffins."

    Isn't Durant more valuable to them than Siakam, given where their franchise is right now? They should be trying to milk one more title out of Curry's career.

    Siakam and compensation to the Suns, Durant to the Warriors, Whoever to Toronto. Make it happen. Minimally hurts the Suns' barely existant title chances for this year, but puts them in a stronger position for next season and beyond.

    Suns are frontrunners to sign Bol Bol

    Did he have to stand up for people to be able to see him?

    So what percentage of games against terrible teams do you think a championship contender should dominate? 10%? 15%?

    Suns @ Rockets Wednesday game thread 12-27-2023

    I give Durant credit. After looking terrible on Christmas, he found a way to bounce back this game and look like a future Hall-of-Famer. Whether it was an attitude adjustment or just dumb luck doesn't matter. We can't be choosy at this point.

    OMG Durant made a shot in the last three minutes of the game.

    Suns hire Frank Vogel as next head coach

    How can anyone other than Booker be a "loyalist" to anyone in the organization? The other players all just got here.

    OT: Officially Bought a House in AZ

    Excellent, let us know how you like it! My wife and I have tossed around several possible retirement locations for however many years down the road, and Prescott is one of them.

    Mavericks @ Suns Monday (Christmas Night) game thread 12-25-2023

    That's true, I forgot about them. I guess the conclusion would be that James is a better leader than Durant -- or, at the very least, that James a decade ago was a better leader than Durant is now.

    Mavericks @ Suns Monday (Christmas Night) game thread 12-25-2023

    I casually followed the score until the start of the fourth quarter, when I turned on the television, so I saw the same meltdown everyone else did. It's just sad. I had a thought, which I suppose is obvious, but for what it's worth: Since Booker is the only player who's been on the team for...

    Suns @ Kings Friday game thread 12-22-2023

    Uh, how about a week ago, when you said I was hoping the Suns would suck so that I could gloat? I guess that sort of lame behavior doesn't bother you when you're the one indulging in it?

    Why I don't want Durant

    I agree that the Suns probably would not have been any better this year if they had stood pat. The only advantage would be that they'd have some tradeable assets and the possibility of high draft picks down the road.

    Why I don't want Durant

    I don't think that's true. His numbers are fine, but the leadership is lacking, and that's putting it gently. This board is fond of talking about "empty stats guys" who put up the numbers but don't help their team win, and that's exactly what Durant is right now. How often in his career has...

    Why I don't want Durant

    Re-reading this thread. What jumps out at me is, prior to Ishbia taking over, this board was quite confident that Jones would not part with both Bridges and Johnson in a Durant deal. And I think the board was right. Jones knew that that would be an overpayment, but the Nets held firm, and...

    Unfortunately it took Ishbia a year too long to figure out that running an NBA team takes more than a big bank account, fanboi enthusiasm, and poor impulse control.

    Suns @ Kings Friday game thread 12-22-2023

    I never liked it. I started an anti-Durant thread almost a year before the trade happened. But the price was what it was. The only options were pay the price, or don't make the deal. There is no alternate universe in which the Suns get Durant for cheaper.

    And Johnson, and all of the picks, because the deal wouldn't have happened.
