Loved that signing the second I saw it.

Denver is going to be tough to beat if they remain healthy. Jamal and MPJ are giving them good production. And Jokic is going to get his numbers. They’re amazing at home (29-4). Not saying they’re the favorite but they will be a tough out.
Kings are so good in the clutch. Fox and Sabonis are great. The west is so wide open. I’ve said it before, anyone but Golden State and I’d be fine with whoever represents the west if the Suns don’t make it.
Luka is on the same path as Russ.

Hey we’re only 4 games behind Memphis for the 2 seed. A lot of basketball left. Dillon Brooks is going to miss their game Sunday because of technical foul accumulation.
We’ve got the Kings two more times I believe. That could determine seeds 2-4. Ideally we get the 2 and play the Timberwolves in round 1. I’d rather avoid the Mavs or Warriors in round 1. I think we’ll beat the Clippers. That’s why we got a guy like KD who can cancel out Kawhi. Book is a better player at this point than PG. Lot of basketball left.

Dude has never had any premium talent around him and the one time they did have a good player next to him with Brunson, he got to the Conference Finals.
Russ never achieved anything close to that. Now they imported the biggest cancer in the league. Their inability to surround him with anything resembling serious talent is that team’s undoing. Not Luka’s, IMO.

Main difference being that Luka can shoot from the outside. He will probably never be on a bad offensive team, but may never be on a team that has a legit shot at winning a title.

I think that problem will continue. He seems like a miserable teammate.

And he is pudgy, ball dominant and players like Porzingis that get traded away from Dallas suddenly look better again.
The marriage of Kyrie and Luka baffles me. It reminds me of the two and three of systems the Suns tried to run under McD.

I've been waiting for protective face masks that resemble ice hockey goalie masks. That would be so cool but I doubt the NBA would allow it.
This guy is headed in a downward spiral

I agree with that. I was more stating that he is getting a reputation that's larger than his play.

If the Suns are somehow able to re-sign 3kogie (and he continues to wear it) we should all go in on some masks and do it Canal St style like a block away from footprint and catch fans on their way in
lol we should do it for the playoffs this year

It seems like a real longshot at this point the Suns will be able to keep him if he keeps this play up. Best case scenario is he really likes it here and gets a 2 year tax mle with a player option to try to get to his bird rights.
like to see Purple or orange

This will hurt. The Grizzlies lose Brandon Clarke for the season.
