Suns are my Kryptonite!
I am betting with the new ownership, this team will be significantly different by the end of the year.

Pretty sure it's in jest.

Even though it would never work if that was the asking price I would still do that, because that would be a bargain.
I like the idea but would they even want to come off the bench? And do you pay that kind of money just to have them come off the bench?
I guess its sort of like what the Lakers are doing with Westbrook.

Ya got me
I know it’s not realistic considering who the players are that I would like to see come off the bench, in this totally hypothetical proposal.

Pretty remarkable game. Steph, Wiggins, Moody, Wiseman, Jamychal Green and Kuminga were all out hurt. Only 2 players over 6'7" and that's if you believe Draymond is over 6'7". Warriors had a 17 point lead, a 21 point lead, but then the Hawks at one point into the 4th quarter were shooting 71% in the 2nd half including I think 7 of 9 from 3.. Hawks take a 3 point lead, Klay misses a long 2, Poole rebounds, Murray blocks his shot Poole tips it to DiVincenzo who rips a 3 to tie it. The Hawks had a foul didn't use it. Warriors win in double OT on a 2nd putback by Looney off a long miss
He's still not vintage Klay but he's been pretty amazing of late. last 4 games 24, 29, 31 and 54. Poole has been putting up big numbers but tons of turnovers trying to take over for Steph, 6 last night, 5 in the last 10 games per game. But Klay has been shooting the hell out of the open 3.s and the contested 3's. I think he had 20 in the first quarter last night.

Wow, I did not think he still had that in him.
There was never a such thing as a post Kobe scoring king.
There can be only 1 and until someone beats Wilts mark it's Wilt and only Wilt.

Patrick Baldwin Jr is starting to show some of why the Warriors like him so much. He can really shoot it. His nickname is PBJ, it came out this week that it was like a week ago that he actually ate his first PBJ sandwich, at the age of 20. Nobody seems to know why he never had one before.
Last night in addition to 2 threes he made a fake and drive and finger roll that brought the whole bench up. After the game Klay was being interviewed and just volunteered how great it was to see "PBJ get 8 points in a couple of minutes. He even showed why he's got jelly in his name with that finger roll."
Preseason the claim was long term the Warriors think he's a better prospect than any of Wiseman, Kuminga or Moody. I'm not sure he's athletic enough to wind up better than Kuminga but he sure can shoot and he's so long.

Better off silent
Want to see the definition of the crazy that is the NBA? Look at the Boston/OKC game last night.

NBA players are just amazing. Warriors down 3, 4.2 seconds left they run a back screen throw the ball cross court to Lamb who hits Klay curling off a screen, 3 is good. 1 second left Detroit struggles to get it in, throws it to Sadiq Bey moving away from the basket, catch, turn swish and he actually got it off with .4 on the clock they reviewed it to be sure. It was the 3rd time in the game Detroit inbounded with 2 seconds or less on the clock and hit a 3, sometimes just not your night.

WHAT? How is that possible?

Thing is there was still time left in Wilt's game, but fans stormed the court when he hit 100, and the refs couldn't get them off the court to resume the game. It could have been more than 100 easily!

A year ago he could have easily been a Sun. Now he's way too expensive. Alot of guys on this forum were begging to get him.
They were right.

It's easy to look back in hindsight. Now he's on Utah and they NEED him to have big numbers. When he started his career he was not anywhere near the player he is now. That's the thing in the NBA, you don't know which guys are going to take it to that next level. Markkanen has ramped up his aggression tenfold. This is what Ayton COULD become if he ever got aggressive like Markkanen. That, and he needs better handles like Markkanen!!
