You have a tendency to talk glowingly about people and coaches that aren't with the Suns, especially if they are ex-Suns and you also have a tendency to harshly review those that are still in a Phoenix uniform. All I did was correct some of your comments, there was no bashing there. It was an attempt to keep your post from creating the typical Suns bashing that accompanies a post such as yours, especially when the team is struggling and people are already down about them.
And you didn't tell us it was your opinion that Thomas was 3rd in the MVP race, you made it sound like you were passing on news. I corrected it. That's not bashing.
Markieff has stepped up his game, I acknowledged that but it's ludicrous to suggest that he's anywhere near the reason Washington is playing better except to point out that he is no longer playing horribly. He measures out at a slightly below replacement level player. Saying so is not bashing.
And I'm not sure how it's bashing to point out that Bledsoe, our player, is playing at least as well as Dragic, not our player. Especially since I had already mentioned that Goran was playing pretty well.
Steve, this is the around the NBA thread. I'm merely commenting on some recent ex Suns who are now on other teams. This has nothing to do with the Suns, this is about other players around the league. I didn't even say anything about the Suns.
Scratch that I did. I complimented them on hopefully getting a top pick in this great draft and said that it would mean it worked out well for all the parties. Far from "Suns bashing".
I never said Markieff is the only reason that Washington is playing well, but he's certainly a big part of it. I'm sure neither me nor you actually watch many Wizards games and I'm just going off what their fans are saying on their forum.
And it just seems kind of random to put Bledsoe in a thread about other NBA teams. If someone were to say, "Mike Conley is having a good season" then would you respond by saying about how Bledsoe is having a better season as well?
I didn't know there's an actual ranking for MVPs right now. Isn't it all subjective until the voters actually vote and the results come out in May/June? Not sure why you would assume that me saying IT is 3rd in the MVP ranking is a fact because there's no such official ranking for it.
You seemed to think that I was going to somehow bash the Suns for merely recognizing the play of other players around the league. Sure I may if this was a thread about that but it isn't. I was just about to post how Steph Curry's brother Seth has also been playing well lately and seems to have solidified himself in the league but now I'm afraid you will take that as some kind of shot at the Suns and will respond by saying Booker is actually playing better than Seth.
I'm sorry you felt that but no, that post had no such correlation to the Suns or any of their current players. If it did, I would be specific about that in the post itself but I most likely wouldn't post that in thread dedicated for non Suns/around the league news anyway.
