    Should Ayton be Traded?

    My expectations are quite low with Ayton. Last years playoffs was really depressing. But one last shot with a new coach and a restocked team is better than the package offered by Dallas.

    2023 Phoenix Suns Offseason

    I hope Okogie has worked on his game and comes back. Also have my hopes up for Jordan Goodwin. So I guess Ayton, Okogie, Durant, Book, Beal, Goodwin, Bizzy, Jock, Payne & TJ should have us in the mix until mid-season and we can do some trades or signings then. Maybe trade some draft picks!

    2023 Phoenix Suns Offseason

    Seems like a nice pick drafting Camara. We need to get bigger. What is the PG situation now? Do we start with Point Book and Beal, or will Cam Payne get the starting job? Other options?

    Welcome to the Suns Toumani Camara

    Agreed. Seems like he knows how to play on the inside offensively and also knows what's around him on defense. One can always hope. Good thing to get another big man. We need to get bigger.

    Draft Talk: Anyone else want Gradey Dick?

    "I am both an analyst and a therapist. I'm an analrapist." LOL arrested development was such a great show (the first 3 seasons). OT: The name is great. Will check out the scouting report. We also had this DJ Strawberry or something. Need at least one good name on the roster at all times.

    2023 Phoenix Suns Offseason

    Yeah, reminds me of the years of mediocrity before we got Nash back. We had some really mediocre established players for us that took us nowhere. Anyone know what years and teams I am talking about? Update: I looked it up on Wikipedia. Seems I remember it right...

    Chris Paul appreciation thread

    So if the Suns are bounced from the playoffs next year I actually hope Steph and his smug face, and dirty Draymond & CHRIS PAUL win it all. Would be so happy to see CP3 lift the trophy. Cannot see them get past the Nuggets though, but then again, the Bucks seemed unbeatable when they beat us in...

    Suns trade for Beal

    I'm excited about Beal! Let's play the triangle.

    The Suns' search for a New Coach Thread

    Ugh, no to Doc Rivers. Not too happy about hiring an existing assistant either, in Kevin Young. I'd rather get someone from the outside shake things up.

    2023 Western Conference Finals - Nuggets vs Lakers

    As long as he doesn't waddle his way to the finals and another ring I'm happy with his ups and downs. Really amazing career he's had. Not a fan though.

    2023 Phoenix Suns Offseason

    I absolutely believe Ayton can turn it around elsewhere. Especially when it's time for a new contract ;) Plenty of folks in the FO have missed in the draft in recent years. We could have had Luka and Fox, not to mention Haliburton. Have you guys heard this before? BIG IF TRUE. So yeah, I hope...

    Playoffs: Nuggets @ Suns Thursday game thread 5-11-2023 - Game 6

    Good luck to the Nuggets going all the way. I prefer them over Hell A and Warriors out of the west. Not that interested in the east. Would be cool for Harden or Jimmy Buckets to shine in the finals.

    2023 Phoenix Suns Offseason

    I'm ready to move on from Ayton, CP3 and Monty. Some good seasons and great memories, but all in all folded when it mattered. Need a rebuild around Booker and Durant with a new coach and a GM who is a bit more aware of team weaknesses. JJ never got us help at PG or inside.

    Playoffs: Nuggets @ Suns Friday game thread 5-5-2023 - Game 3

    Good job by Monty in this game. He saw the need for contributions from the bench and played experienced scorers. Great to see Ross and TJ out there helping out. He even called time outs when Denver had some momentum. Also nice to see Durant not giving up but playing through a crap start. And...

    Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Saturday game thread 4-29-2023- Game 1

    Got killed on the boards. Need to show more intensity on defense and rebounding next game.

    2023 NBA Playoffs - Other Teams

    Just got to say AAAAAHAHAHAHAHA to the first round exit of Milwaukee and bulldozer Giannis. Not sure if Jae played even a second in game 5. Watching the recording now. :cheers: :beer:

    Playoffs: Suns @ Clippers Thursday game thread 4-20-2023 - Game 3

    I hope and believe CP3 and Ayton (and the whole team really) will play into form. All that matters is we won the game today and got some more time together. What does not kill you only makes you stronger, or so they say.

    2023 NBA Play-in Tournament Thread

    I was pleasantly surprised by the refs in Wolves - Lakers game. They could have thrown more fouls on KAT or Ant early, but they didn't. They even called fouls on LeBron so it was an exciting game. Can't ask for more. Too bad the Wolves didn't win it. Would have been sweet. I think both Lakers...

    Suns @ Lakers Wednesday game thread 3-22-2023

    Question: Who should be in the rotation in the playoffs if everybody is healthy? Starters: - Ayton - Craig - Durant - Booker - Paul Bench: - Okogie - Payne - Lee - Landale/Bizzy?

    Suns @ Lakers Wednesday game thread 3-22-2023

    Our coaching staff or Deandre himself needs to practice how to get in good position so his teammates can get him the ball. He's pretty good when he gets the ball and goes to the jump shot or the hook. Just needs to get the ball more. Disclaimer: This requires effort and it might be physical...

    Suns trade for PF Darius Bazley

    Not saying hard foul per se, but play physical back at him. Meet force with force. If he smashes into you, smash back. Ref is going to blow the whistle in favor of Giannis anyway, so foul him before he has time to finish the euro three-step and scoop/dunk. Back paddling and wilting is not a good...

    Suns @ Lakers Wednesday game thread 3-22-2023

    Bazley's only job would be to defend, rebound and run the floor. Then, as the system prescribes, stand in the corner and wait for the pass. Maybe with some confidence he could turn into something. If he's garbage he can only get better. 3 and D guy would be neat, if he can pick up Luka or other...

    Suns @ Lakers Wednesday game thread 3-22-2023

    I'd like to see TJ Warren get some meaningful minutes. Craig and Ross have not defended their playing time. When things are not working you usually have to try something different. Right? By all means, if the starters are cold from 3 (Okogie or Craig) then put in Lee and Payne early. Even...

    Suns @ Thunder Sunday game thread 3-19-2023

    But I guess, if they have a system, and they trust it and they just have to let it work, then by all means. Sit idly by and wait for it to work.

    Suns @ Thunder Sunday game thread 3-19-2023

    Let's see now. Home team is going on a big run late in the game. It's not when are you calling a time out, coach, it is ARE you calling a time out? No? Oh well, there goes the lead, the home team's momentum is not stopped, and we're too far behind in the last 2 minutes of the game. I wonder if...
