    Suns @ Kings Friday game thread 12-22-2023

    I can't believe this, never seen a team fragile like this. Someone (preferably multiple players) is always missing: key player, a starter, few benchplayers, now Nurkic. Very creative

    Suns @ Trail Blazers Tuesday game thread 12-19-2023

    No, it is not. He was one of the worst executives ever, while just being simply a clueless coach.

    Suns updates and discussion for the 2023-24 season

    I do think, it was given that Keon Johnson will be cut. He is very athletic, but that's it and this can be said about a lot of players outside of the NBA:

    Poll: Final Two Cuts

    Reath played decent minutes for the australian national team in the FIBA23 World Cup.

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    I love Durant, he is a great player but he is 34 soon and quite injury prone. Apart from Ayton, short contracts and all the available draft picks/swaps (the latters are quite risky in themselves as well) I wouldn't give up anything from our core. So no Cam Johnson and especially not Bridges. If...

    Suns Off-season Thread

    Yeah, but fortunately Boston would never make that offer.

    2021 NBA Draft Prospects Thread

    Excellent prospect. His release point is kind of low and probably that is what prohibits him from being a surefire 1st round pick (or even a lottery pick), but he is still #22 in espn's latest mock.

    NBA Trade Deadline Thread 2021

    Depends on the picks and its protections. I'm not really a Gordon-fan, but heavily protected late 1st rounders (even multiple ones) are no-brainers in an offer for Gordon.

    Who could the Suns add to the roster that would help?

    No, because it would take 2 1st rounders to unload him, even on minimum contract.

    76ers @ Suns Saturday game thread 2-13-2021

    Yes, Thibodeau is far from an awful coach, but at the same time he doesn't seem a proper coach for a rebuilding team either. So I would happily take my chances on Towns under Monty. I basically would leave this team as it is, the Ayton + assets (problem is the Suns have only a few to move)...

    Bucks @ Suns Wednesday game thread 2-10-2021

    Complete waste is probably an exaggeration but his ability of showing no resistance in D vs. drives or post-ups and failing to score from lay-ups and open 3's drove me crazy. Somehow in January (even before putting him in the starting line-up) he got more effective and consistent and now with...

    2020-21 Around the NBA Thread

    UTA is a very good team but there is no way that they advance vs. the Lakers this season. The Nets represent an even smaller challenge. I think that their only real challenger is the CÍippers.

    CP3 vs Rubio

    That was more of a virtual 1st rounder, since it is top20 protected and if it doesn't convey in 2021, then it will become MIN 2021 2nd rounder. Since I don't really see that Warriors securing home-court advantage (that is more or less what is needed to aovid protection), the probable return for...

    CP3 vs Rubio

    I somewhat agree with both takes. Rubio was a good fit in Phoenix and he makes less sense in Minnesota. But even as a Sun, he was an average, maybe a slightly above average starter and no more.

    Suns Sign E'twaun Moore

    I never realized that Moore is much of a defender. He is a dangerous 3P-shooter and a solid microwave-scorer. Very good addition for the vet min. especially with a team option on the 2nd year.

    Free Agency 2020

    Agreed. Jones seems more of a replacement of Diallo than Baynes. Plus he might be the emergency plan in case of Baynes leaving.

    Free Agency 2020

    The Nuggets rescinded their qualifying offer to Torrey Craig, he becomes a UFA. He would be a solid rotation player.

    Free Agency 2020

    Yes, he had an excellent run in the bubbles, as the Suns did as well. Still, I'm not convinced. About his age: he is a long-time pro, I think that we more or less already saw his ceilling, further significant improvement is unlikely. If he can be re-signed for a team-friendly deal (i.e about or...

    Free Agency 2020

    Crowder has his limitations but on a similar contract I take him over Saric. BTW, I'm not the biggest supporter of bringing back Saric. If healthy, Baynes is another story.

    Free Agency 2020

    All quiet on the Suns' front. Usually the Spurs work this way.

    2020 Draft

    Nice find. I remember that the Suns acquired his rights in the Marbury-trade. I guess its value may be limited since Vujanic retired 8 yaers ago.

    Jalen Smith

    Yes, and Ibaka is the guy who Smith reminds me most of.

    2020 Draft

    If the Knicks take Toppin, I doubt that WAS goes for Hallyburton. Avdija makes more sense.

    2020 Draft

    I wouldn't have thought that at least one from the Avdija-Hallyburton-Toppin trio will be available. Great news for the Suns.

    2020 Draft

    Avdija is definitely more athletic and fluid than Saric was/is and he is already more versatile than Saric was.
