    AYTON TRADED!

    I'm glad Ayton isn't on the Suns anymore. He was the reason they couldn't beat Denver. They couldn't afford to depend on him again this year.

    Welcome to the Valley: Bol Bol

    The same could be said of Denver signing Bruce Brown last offseason. Of course, in that one season he helped the team win their first championship.

    We saw the Bridges, Johnson, Paul floor last season when Booker was injured. It was very bad. I know Johnson was injured too, but he does get injured a lot.

    2023-24 Free Agency

    Agreed. All westbrook proved in the playoffs is that he can have a big impact when the team's best players are injured and can lead a team to lose all of its games.

    Chris Paul appreciation thread

    I'm guessing Paul's lasting legacy will depend on what happens with the Suns in the next few years. If the current superteam fails to outperform Paul's teams I think his tenure will be viewed much more fondly in retrospect.

    In terms of on court impact I think he did more for the Suns than Majerle and Chambers. If they are in Paul should be in too.

    Chris Paul appreciation thread

    Some of the stats that measure a player's peak like win shares/48 show that Barkley and Paul are the two best players the Suns have had. https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/PHO/leaders_career.html

    Yes, it felt like the Suns were the best team when they had Barkley. The Suns have always felt like underdogs since then.

    I should hope Booker thought he was better than Paul. The stats and I think that Paul was better than Booker in '21 and '22. Booker was better this year.

    Also, Paul should definitely be in. He was clearly the best player on the team that got closest to winning a championship. He was also the best player on the team with the best record in franchise history. The only thing separating him from Barkley is the MVP and a 4th season with a .500 record.

    Stoudemire and Marion were more accomplished Suns players than Majerle and are probably close to KJ. Of course, they should've been inducted as soon as they retired.

    2023 Phoenix Suns Offseason

    waiving and re-signing paul is their best option. There is no way they sign a better player with the extra cap space they'd get by stretching his contract.

    Windhorst called it yesterday. He thought Paul would re-sign with the Suns. Not sure how that works.

    The Suns' search for a New Coach Thread

    Is Nick Nurse a good coach? His team has sucked for 3 years even though they had good players. He won a championship because Durant got injured.

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    How many picks could the Suns get if they traded Ayton to the Nets for Ben Simmons?

    Ayton's advanced stats in the 2021 playoffs were much better than sabonis' in 2023. (check ws/48 and BPM). https://www.basketball-reference.com/playoffs/NBA_2021_advanced.html https://www.basketball-reference.com/playoffs/NBA_2023_advanced.html
