    Uggh. Loose balls going the Bucks way these last few possessions.

    Bad 3 by Booker there, IMO. Just keep moving the ball and getting an easier shot

    I think it's a little early to say we aren't winning this one, lol

    Yes, you guys are right. Just tired seeing Saric out there getting owned. No Sticks, especially in the midst of this crazy stretch of games. It's a brutal 7.

    Suns @ Bucks Monday game thread 4-19-2021

    We screwed up not going after a decent guy with size to back up Ayton. Saric is a joke in the paint defensively and gets destroyed on both ends by anyone with size and a bit of athletic ability. At this point, maybe throw Sticks out there and see if he can't give us some quality minutes. He...

    Did Frank the tank die? Why isn't he getting any minutes over a clearly struggling Saric?

    Deandre Ayton discussion

    He has certainly seems to have turned the corner in the last 3-4 weeks. His body language has been great, and he's not getting down on himself and disengaging when he makes a mistake like he used to do. Most importantly, we have to remember that he's still just 22 years old. He will continue to...

    What if Suns took Tyrese Haliburton?

    True, but it's clear Sticks isn't that guy this year, and may not gonna be ready next year either. With Paul being 35, we need guys who can help win now, not 3-4 years down the line.

    What if Suns took Tyrese Haliburton?

    Can't say what the future holds, but short term answer is we absolutely screwed up not taking Haliburton, at least this season and possibly next. He's the guy off the bench we needed to lead our 2nd unit. Carter is a great defender and can get hot. Payne can score at will when he's on, but...

    Kings @ Suns Thursday game thread 4-15-2021

    Gotta stop letting these sub .500 teams get back into the games late. It has happened way too often this year, and has cost this team wins. Kings are on the verge of quitting on their coach. Many are speculating that Luke Walton will be replaced in the offseason. This is not a team that should...

    We'll win tonight, then lose to the lowly Wizards on Saturday. It's this team's MO, lol.

    Suns updates and discussion for the 2020-21 season

    Suns record since starting 8-7 = 21-7. Number of losses against sub .500 teams in that 21-7 stretch: 6. Only loss with a winning record was to the Nets who were down Irving and Durant, and they had a 20+ point lead in the 3rd. They are winning the games against the competitive teams and losing...

    Lamarcus Aldridge

    I wouldn't be surprised to see the Kings try to flip Buddy Hield for that expiring. The Kings new GM is always talking about flexibility moving forward. Getting rid of Hield's bad contract for one that would free up $24M seems like the kind of thing he's preaching. Would the Spurs bite though?

    Lamarcus Aldridge

    He's on the last year of his contract and getting paid $24M. Some team is gonna want that expiring contract to free up some cap space. I really doubt he gets bought out.

    2020-21 Around the NBA Thread

    I'm not sure what value Griffin brings to the table anymore. Mostly he just camps out at the 3-pt line and hoists them up at a sub-standard 31.5%

    Perhaps you should try running into an Ayton screen first and then let us know. :p

    Great article from The Ringer: Here Come the Suns. The part about Ayton is particularly spot on. https://www.theringer.com/nba/2021/3/4/22312798/phoenix-suns-devin-booker-chris-paul-deandre-ayton

    Fair point. Crowder was unusually bad.

    Suns @ Timberwolves Sunday game thread 2-28-2021

    In his defense, the first 3 quarters were the Devin Booker show. 41 points.

    Not sure if this has been mentioned, but Ayton's playng like he's tired of hearing those KAT for Ayton trade rumors.

    Jalen Smith...how you doing in the g league?

    I do think we screwed up passing on Haliburton, who was supposed to be off the board by the time we picked, for Jalen, but time will tell. Haliburton might be a ROY contender if not for LeMelo's outstanding play. He'll certainly be on the 1st team all-rookie.

    Deandre Ayton discussion

    There are holes in Ayton's game, there is no doubt and mostly on his establishing a dominant offensive presence, but his physical presence in the paint on defense is huge. You can't undersell that.
