Danny Manning flashback. Come give use hope and break down. But I love the swing for the fences, something the old owners would never do
The KD trade was swinging for the fences. Signing a broken down 35 year old, tiny, atrocious defensive, shoot first PG for a ten day contract with 14 games left in the entire season is grasping at straws.Danny Manning flashback.

I said it before but if this doesn't verify the Suns desperation at this point, not sure what does. You don't sign him unless you intend on using him or it doesn't make sense. They are in essence acknowledging the thought that we don't need a PG or we have enough ball handling has been a disaster from a turnover perspective.The KD trade was swinging for the fences.

I think our dilemma was whether to pursure championship level talent or to build a team with every position covered. We went for talent and ignored positional needs. Obviously they belived that with three facilitators (Booker, Beal, KD) on the court at the same time we didn't need a traditional PG. And maybe we'd all feel that way if Beal and Booker had stayed healthy but as it is, we've suffered from a lack of on-court leadership.I said it before but if this doesn't verify the Suns desperation at this point, not sure what does.

You just know he practiced today, for sure. They just can't say he did.xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media
Our main problem is still not a PG, but that we never consistently played defense, nor developed enough offensive game plans to maintain efficiency in face of tight physical and frequent quick double teaming defense against KD and to a lesser degree Book. And our role players are at best streaky 3pt shooters except for Allen. IT may help our there with his 3pt shooting and playmaking skill.I think our dilemma was whether to pursure championship level talent or to build a team with every position covered.

Man, sucks that Thomas got screwed over by Boston after that run a few years back. Good to see he's still got a smile on his face though.
