    I don't get it.

    I'm a huge Suns fan, but I'm also a huge basketball fan. Count me in as someone who wants Luka to be generationally awesome and for Ayton to be even greater.

    And, depending on how much you want to believe the stories, that happened in part because the even greater unanimous/generational #1 pick from the year before liked playing with his point guard from Blue Chips!

    It’s time to quit babying Booker

    The paraphrase felt harsher to me.

    2019 Draft Prospects...

    I say we offer Booker, Ayton, our next 10 first round picks, eternal life, the holy grail, the first born child of every Suns fan, and all the drugs... But I'd still expect them to say, "No way! Did you SEE that dunk?!"

    I honestly can't imagine ANY team trading the 1st pick this year.

    What is the plan?

    I'm on board.

    The cool thing about Monte Morris is that he also had a freakishly great assist-to-turnover ratio all four years at Iowa State. It's what he does.

    Good call. He's been on my radar since last year, when he scored even more points per game. So far, he's improved his efficiency this year, which was my biggest concern. I think you're looking at last year's stats btw. His 3 point % is back up this year. Assists are up and turnovers are down...

    What is the plan?

    I guess my point on Vonleh and Warren is that the Suns need to worry less about perceived value or other teams and more about their own team construction. Warren is going to make some team very happy one day...it's just probably not going to be the Suns. There is a possibility Bender becomes a...

    What is the plan?

    I think it's okay if he looks great elsewhere as long as the Suns improve. Just because he can make another team better, that doesn't mean there's an easy path to hi making the Suns better.

    What is the plan?

    Here's a free agent to target: Noah Vonleh. He is quietly putting together a good season with the Knicks. He's 8th among power forwards in Defensive RPM and is shooting almost 40% from 3 while also rebounding well. http://www.espn.com/nba/statistics/rpm/_/sort/DRPM/position/6

    What is the plan?

    Yeah. The good thing is that I don't think I'm being a homer when I say he should have good value to the right team. He's a fantastic scorer and has now developed a three point shot. He's on an excellent contract. I could see him being a huge asset for several teams...the Suns are just not one...
  13. ColdPickleNachos

    What is the plan?

    I think defense is a big part of it. Also, he is not a willing passer, which means when he is in alongside two other big scorers other players are less involved and the ball moves less. He's also stuck playing power forward a lot, which means we are undersized every time he is in the game. I...

    What is the plan?

    Faults aside, Booker and Ayton are a good start. They need a point guard to make things happen. My top targets would be Kemba Walker (unlikely, but you never now) in free agency and Jrue Holiday (if Davis moves on) via trade. As a backup, I'd try to get one of the Nets two guys or hope Rubio is...

    Sixers @ Suns 1-2-19

    Apparently, they don't miss either!

    Sixers @ Suns 1-2-19

    Philly has 20 free throw attempts and no foul on that Jackson play. That is a stunning combination.

    Sixers @ Suns 1-2-19

    That is officiating malpractice.

    In what WORLD is that not a foul?!!!

    2018-19 Season | Point Guard Discussion

    Yeah...I've been all in on Walker for sure. Unfortunately, I doubt he leaves Charlotte to come to Phoenix. If he does leave the Hornets, my guess is it's because he wants to play on a contender or for a big market. I guess if the Suns get hot late and Booker/Ayton and crew look like an obvious...

    Nuggets @ Suns 12-29-18

    Early in the season, this would have been a blowout loss. Lots to like about the changes in team culture.

    2019 Draft Prospects...

    I agree almost entirely with your takes here. Obviously, I'd be thrilled with Zion. Morant is my second favorite prospect. And, while I have some concerns on Barrett, I would be very uneasy about passing him up or trading if we have the 2nd or 3rd pick. Bol and Porter intrigue me, but the Suns...

    I remember that. I was in favor of bringing him in eventually (as in around now), but worried about it messing up our draft position if we brought him in at the time. Seems like a no-brainer now if possible.

    The Pelicans are now in 14th place in the West and sliding...If they trade AD by necessity, any chance Jrue Holiday could be had?

    Suns @ Magic 12-26-18

    Definitely agreed. His passing is a clear weakness. On the plus side, he has shown the ability to turn a weakness into a strength. If his passing is anything like his 3-point shooting, he'll be reminding people of Magic Johnson by next season!
