D'Antoni is in the building and both the Rockets and Suns each play 8 players.
I hope they fumigate the arena of whatever is in the air before our next home game Friday.
It's not you, it's them.
I was saying this at the beginning of the season, I like Booker and would prefer him to be a Sun but if someone offers something that would be more valuable to the team in the long run I think you have to at least listen. He's not a number #1 guy the best I ever see him being is a Klay Thompson type player minus the lockdown defense
I have been concerned about his health issues for roughly a year and a half now. They were dismissed early on because it’s not anything chronic and seems to be random but even that doesn’t change him from being one of the most injury prone players in the entire league especially at the salary which he will be making next season.
Unless this team eventually morphs into either of the two Detroit teams (Isaiah’s and chauncy’s). While those teams had very good players (Isaiah, Sumatra, Rodman - Chauncey, Wallaces, rip) none of them were necessarily what we see today as “big three” or “big four” types. They were just clubs that were solid all the way through their rosters. I know it’s too early to count chickens that are so young, but if we acquired a legit PG and everyone else (including Melton and okobo) continues to develop this would be an incredibly deep team that wins based on team rather than superstars. Mind you, I believe we might closer to the big three (Ayton, booker and to-be-acquired-PG/JJ/Bridges) than why I’ve written up, but I don’t discount the possibility of the latter.
Can you imagine what [an energized, interested] Faried would have done to the win column, everything else being equal? At least 5 more wins and probably more. It's too bad that we couldn't get Randle over the summer. A true power forward to show the youngsters what rebounding really means.
