And The Twins Streak Continues

[Gee!]

Lopez
Griffin

and now Morris..

We always get the least talented of the two.. Only this time we had the chance to get the better one only to pass him up for his less talented brother..

This front office is morons..

 

[Folster]

Blake and Taylor Griffin aren't twins.

 

[Cheesebeef]

it would be awesome to see us throw out the younger-lesser-brother front court at some point and just listen to announcers clown us unmercifully.

 

[Gee!]

Blake and Taylor Griffin aren't twins.

Your right, but they did come out the same year, my bad, same result though.. Heck, we even had the less talented twin brother of the Collins on the roster recently.. <thats where i got it confused

 

[Gee!]

Im just generally pissed off at the Suns lately.. And they are not doing anything to help me cheer up.. Only piling on more crap..

I wish I had a twin, I would enter myself in the draft and one of us most surely would be picked by the Suns.

Not if you were the better one of the twins..

I'd ask Bruce Bowen to jumpkick my knee and tear my ACL for me.

I'm not sure it matters which twin we picked this year, I don't really like either player all that much. However, I think we picked the brother with the better chance to succeed in the NBA. As for all the other brothers we've selected, most of the time we were just taking a wild shot with a low pick (or FA/rookie signing). It's not like we expected the number 48 pick to really be another Blake Griffin.

Lopez was the 15th pick in the 1st round.. That's a pretty high pick..

Yes, but his brother was already gone. I was against picking Robin at the time but had it not been for his back injury he probably would have been seen long term as a very solid 15 pick. He was just starting to come around and his presence alongside Amare helped turn this team around. He's been a complete waste of space since then but it's hard to predict injuries.

Larry Sanders
Austin Daye

You forgot Stephan Grampham and Jerron Collins..

The list is 5 now

Marcus insisted he was a small forward. Suns may have picked the right one this time.

At least they got their pick of the two this time instead of picking the lesser of the two.

That's not to say that they chose right or wrong.

 

[Absolute Zero]

Ever hear of the Van Arsdales?

That doesn't count since we got the better twin first. I think this is a "twin futility" list. We did have both at one time for a while though.

Markieff this year was better than marcus in fg%, 3ptfg%, rbounding, blks, and overall defense. The only thing he really did not do better was number of shots. His game was much more
efficient. These guys are very close in value. Very different from the lopez brothers. Markieff is slightly bigger.

'Sure did . . . 43 years ago. So once every forty-three years, we might luck out.
