    Is the draft terrible for is if we don't get Zion? Morant might be just as good for us.

    Morant just led his team to the conference championship to face Belmont with a 76-74 win over Jacksonville State. Murray State had lost to the same Jacksonville State team by 20 in their previous meeting this season. He finished with 29 points on 9-14 shooting with 8 assists and 6 rebounds. He...

    I don't think those stats are correct...unless I'm missing something. https://www.teamrankings.com/nba/player-stat/three-point-field-goals-attempted?rate=season-totals https://stats.nba.com/players/traditional/?sort=FG3M&dir=-1&Season=2018-19&SeasonType=Regular%20Season&PerMode=Totals

    How does this draft stack up top 6?

    These things change, and sometimes drafts look different in retrospect... But my read is that: A) You have a #1 prospect that is better than most years. B) The #2 and #3 are comparable to top 3 prospects most years. C) This is a weak draft after the top 3. Barrett is not a good fit for this...

    Knicks @ Suns 3-6-19

    Character concerns. Sat out all last year. Still should have gone higher of course.

    Knicks @ Suns 3-6-19

    He's the best player on his team by a lot. That tends to result in turnovers just from being the focus of the other team's game plan and from having the ball so much. The top 5 guys in the NBA in turnovers per game: 1. Harden 2. Westbrook 3. Young 4. Booker 5. Greek Freak...

    Those are especially annoying because they seemed like clearly stupid decisions at the time. (at least imho)

    Can we count on him to show up?

    2019 Draft Prospects...

    Yes. The 3 worst teams have an equal 14% chance at the top pick. The chances for the top pick after that are as follows: 4. 12.5% 5. 10.5% 6. 9% 7. 7.5% 8. 6% 9. 3.8% 10. 3.7% 11. 2% 12. 1.5% 13. 1% 14. .5% There's a 65% chance Zion goes to one of the 5 worst teams. There's a 30% chance he...

    If we end up with the worst record, yes.
  10. ColdPickleNachos

    What is the plan?

    Injuries? Effort? They didn't lose a single good player off last year's team (except Bledsoe, who was on that team for like 3 games, which he phoned in) and added some exciting players (Ayton, Bridges, Oubre, Holmes ) this year. They got younger with Ayton and Bridges and the point guards, but...

    Apparently a "mild knee sprain." So maybe I did overreact juuuuust a little bit. hahaha

    This is the worst sports news ever.

    What is the plan?

    I think there's a chance they would move him just because they've invested so much in the frontcourt and could conceivably use a high lottery pick on the backcourt. They did just resign him, but the Clippers resigned Griffin...Their best player is a center, as is their highly prized rookie...
  16. ColdPickleNachos

    What is the plan?

    I would. Gordon has as much upside as anyone past the top 3 in this draft imho, fills a need, and is a reasonably proven talent. As a bonus, his contract actually goes down each of the next three years.
  17. ColdPickleNachos

    What is the plan?

    Just a commentary on how one player doesn't solve systemic issues. Counterpoint...LeBron solved a lot of issues for a really terrible Cleveland franchise. I just find it fascinating that the team is somehow worse after getting a year older and adding serious rookie talent. I personally think...

    Imagine if the Suns get Zion...and are still bad. :devil:

    I enjoy the all-star game. More basketball is always a good thing to me!

    What is the plan?

    Agreed. More wishful thinking than anything.

    What is the plan?

    Short of an incident leading to multiple traumatic head injuries suffered by the Bulls' front office and ownership...I can't think of a reason. MAYBE it would make them open to moving Markkanen or Carter.

    Well, this is odd timing... Supposedly, ownership was "livid" after AD got hurt...How did they not see that one coming?

    Knicks beat the Hawks tonight. The Suns officially head into the break with the worst record in the league.
