    It’s time to quit babying Booker

    Don't trade Booker. There's not a player in NBA history who hasn't had doubters at some point. Michael Jordan was a degenerate gambler whose scoring prowess didn't translate into enough team success. He was 24 before his team won its first playoff series and 27 before his first championship...

    Mikal Bridges plus minus

    He got so much better each year in college, and I think there's a good chance that happens in the pros too. Buddy Hield followed that trend despite being older than most rookies coming in.

    2018-19 Season | Point Guard Discussion

    It could have been something as simple as Melton and his agent preferring a shorter contract so he could cash in earlier while Okobo being happy with some security. Melton's contract took awhile, so maybe he was insistent on betting on himself?

    2018-19 Season | Point Guard Discussion

    https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/basketball/news/suns-jamal-crawford-unavailable-saturday/ Crawford was out the last 2 games for personal reasons, so that should be factored in. My guess is the backup pg will be dictated by the matchups and situations as the season goes on. Developing Okobo is...

    Nuggets @ Suns 1-12-18

    My recollection was that Simmons and Ingram were the clear top 2, and that there was a group of 6 after them (really 5 until the Suns built hype for Chriss by considering him at 4). Dunn Bender Hield Murray Brown I wanted Murray the most so I was paying very close attention. He usually wasn't...

    Nuggets @ Suns 1-12-18

    I think it's impressive he managed to have such a big impact on a game where he didn't have a single made field goal.

    Nuggets @ Suns 1-12-18

    I love the energy Holmes brings to the team, even when rooting from the bench.

    2018-19 Season | Point Guard Discussion

    Okay...without cheating and looking at names... Tell me which one is Ja Morant and which one is Isaiah Canaan.

    Vance Joseph in the building today??

    It's worth noting that he was Gase's DC in Miami...so the Jets may have an advantage.

    Kingsbury Finalizing a Deal To Become TheArizona Cardinal's Head Coach

    I like this plan, but I'm at least a little concerned by the fact that he is Antonio Brown's cousin, and it doesn't help that he goes by "Hollywood".

    Tom Thibodeau, Anyone?

    I don't think Thibs is without merit...I'd just like to set the bar higher.

    Hornets @ Suns 1-6-19

    Yeah. Back spasms.
  14. ColdPickleNachos

    What is the plan?

    I'm cool with agreeing to disagree. If the Suns took Barrett, I would assume they would do it without having a solid plan (based on my experience rooting for them the past few years) and that Booker would end up being the "point guard" with Barrett also initiating the offense frequently (kind...

    Hornets @ Suns 1-6-19

    If Ariza's experience is any indication, trading for Kemba would only decrease the chances of signing him this summer.

    Tom Thibodeau, Anyone?

    There are definitely things to like, but the knock on him is that he wears players down. Not a good fit with Booker given his alarming tendency to get hurt the past two seasons. It seems like he'd be good for Ayton in theory, but he pretty clearly was bad for Towns. And I've heard a lot of talk...

    What is the plan?

    You're not going to like my answer. Not exactly excited about Barrett, but his upside is high enough that I would not want to pass on him. And I love Ja Morant. You've made it very clear you don't. That's cool. I think he's got a chance to be very special; fearless, freakish athleticism, great...

    Hornets @ Suns 1-6-19

    Impressed by Warren...just when I thought he'd never learn to pass, he gets a career high 3 assists!

    What is the plan?

    Top 3 protection is important to me...I haven't found a 4th player to be excited about from this class yet, but there is a LOT of time left.
  20. ColdPickleNachos

    What is the plan?

    Another key part of the plan going forward...figure out a way to keep Devin Booker healthy.

    Hornets @ Suns 1-6-19

    I'm used to the Suns being hard to watch...but now they're hard to listen to as well!

    What is the plan?

  23. ColdPickleNachos

    I don't get it.

    Yeah. Honestly, I'm cool with Luka being the second coming of Jordan if it means Ayton is Olajuwon.

    2019 Draft Prospects...

    Found a clip! It doesn't have the Blue Chips part, but it shows a couple times just how much Shaq wanted Penny. http://www.espn.com/video/clip?id=15184678

    2019 Draft Prospects...

    Looking for confirmation that is better than message board posts, but I'm almost positive Shaq said it in the 30 for 30 "This Magic Moment".
