    AYTON TRADED!

    If the plus/minus is to be believed, he was their best starter by a wide margin.

    AYTON TRADED!

    I don't know why anyone thought Ayton would be a more potent offensive weapon playing with Scoot Henderson than he was with Chris Paul.

    Suns lose 2nd rd pick from tampering

    I'm okay as long as they don't have to give back the rights to Vujanic.

    Suns lose 2nd rd pick from tampering

    I'm surprised by the swift verdict. Don't these cases usually drag on forever?

    Suns @ Warriors Tuesday game thread, 10-24-2023 - SEASON OPENER

    I agree, but the question remains, is Booker good enough to be the #1 player on a championship team? He's still only borderline top-ten in the league.

    AYTON TRADED!

    This is an Ayton thread. Unless it gets shut down, posts in it are going to be about Ayton. Buyer beware.

    All-time greats are supposed to be able to rise above that. Did we make that excuse for Jordan, Abdul-Jabbar, Bird, etc.?

    Not to mention an aggressive cut to the basket and a decisive finish with the game on the line.

    Suns updates and discussion for the 2023-24 season

    At least they don't have any draft picks to forfeit.

    Suns @ Warriors Tuesday game thread, 10-24-2023 - SEASON OPENER

    It's a good win, but it exposes what I've been concerned about, which is that the Suns have six or seven legitimate players and then a bunch of guys desperate to stay in the league. The bench plus Allen shot 10-36, with 8 assists and 8 turnovers. Even if everyone is healthy, Vogel is going to...

    Suns @ Warriors Tuesday game thread, 10-24-2023 - SEASON OPENER

    I think his days as a top-ten player are over. Booker is clearly the Suns' best offensive weapon, and acquiring Durant did not change that. If anything, it just made it more defined.

    At least your "ace" isn't Clayton Kershaw.

    And what a one it was! I say this as not even a Diamondbacks fan.

    Best Buy will no longer carry physical movies in 2024

    The "losses" when converting analog to digital at 44.1 kHz (never mind 48 kHz) aren't detectable by the human ear. If we're talking vinyl versus MP3 or some other compressed format, then sure, vinyl should be better.

    Best Buy will no longer carry physical movies in 2024

    Right, but these same youths could get the same experience with CDs. They just choose not to.

    Best Buy will no longer carry physical movies in 2024

    All good points. I work in the classical music world, so I hadn't thought of the distinction between "older" and newer popular music. But there's definitely something to that. A half century ago, when there was a greater expectation that someone would sit down and really listen to an album...

    Best Buy will no longer carry physical movies in 2024

    I simply don't understand the vinyl comeback. I don't resent it, but I can't attribute it to anything other than nostalgia. The myth that records provide better sound quality than CDs is demonstrably false, but it persists. Young people are buying Bluetooth turntables! It's nonsensical. For...

    Who's in the rotation?

    I still think Bates-Diop is going to turn it around, but Metu over Bol is looking likely.

    It takes two to tango, but she set him up good. It was a trap from the get-go.

    Nurk thread

    Take away the lob catches and it's a much different story. I agree that it sounds below average, but I haven't looked at the numbers. Edit: You sold Nurkic a little short. He's at 61% for his career, which is low, but those numbers are weighed down by his first few seasons. Since coming to...
