He lost one game in his HS career so he couldn't have been too slow.

He can't guard anybody but he can run an offense and pass the ball with the best of them.

Have to laugh at Zach, it sure looked like he said "bleep me" when they announced Minnesota picked him. Kid really needs some humility and maturity

That was the point. He's slow, it doesn't stop him from succeeding. People say he's too slow but the results say otherwise. Maybe the NBA will be the level where he finally is too slow to succeed but I'd hate to bet against him.

As for Lavine, I worry about a player that can't at least be happy about just being selected on draft night. Safe the moping and whining for later.

Suns getting the Arizona Cardinals treatment, going to commercial before their pick two times in a row.

LOL I was thinking the same thing. I would love to see the numbers over the last few NFL and NBA drafts. I would guess no one had more picks during a commercial break than the Arizona teams. Almost seems like a deliberate strategy by ESPN.

Ennis isn't a horrible choice but I'd prefer Harris. Here's hoping Toronto offers us a premium to bring a "local boy" home.

Yea, a PG was a need. I think the Suns worked him out against the another PG who they worked out twice (can't think of his name at the moment).

Sorry I missed your irony in the first post I agree he just finds a way.

I've been souring on Zach for awhile he basically bagged it at UCLA once he realized he wsa going pro. Then his uncle says going back would be a waste of time, he and the dad openly blast how he was used, and now on national tv he says F me or F man when the pick is announced? I guess he's only 19 but man does he need a dose of humility and maturity.

I hate Chicago. They picked up two of the guys I wanted.

Plus Ennis wanted to go to his home country Toronto

Well with 2 picks in the teens I would think the Suns would swing for a high upside pick.

Instead they took low ceiling / high floor need picks.

No kidding. That would be the worst thing. Should have reached an agreement last year when the Suns could have!!

He wanted the max last year. There was no reason to give it to him then since they have the rights to match.

I feel like we are trading Ennis to the Raptors. It doesn't make sense to take him over Harris if we are going to take a guard there.
