I like the orange court in the pictures. Hope it holds true visually for fans in person and on television.
I'm not sure how I think about it. It's definitely different, and I want to reserve judgement until we see it in real life. A picture doesn't give something like that justice.

A player can lead by actions, not just words. The Suns have multiple players and a coach who are capable of leading.

Talk about leading through action, Devin Booker could be that guy, as demonstrated by his unselfish play in the Olympics.

Last year's "NBA Cup" court was, unequivocally, the worst Suns court I've ever seen, nothing even remotely close. A purple, grey and teal monstrosity, seemingly designed for players to slip on it's revolting, mirrored floor.

This court... take out the painted on, lame, pointless, trophy theme... it still sucks, but I have seen worse!

I will be curious to see what it looks like on TV vs in person. Last year's definitely looked different in person. My daughter is moving home to save up some money while she finishes the last few months of college. Once we get her settled, I am going to get to a few games to check it out.

I do like the gradient Valley jersey-esque sideline on the NBA Cup court. That should be something on the regular floor. Kind of crazy how much an alternate jersey has influenced the team for most of the last decade.

Even if PJ Tucker were bought out, I'm skeptical if the Suns would have interest in him.


October 25th, 2024 at 5:04pm CST by Luke Adams, HoopsRumors:

The Sixers, Heat, Bucks, and Suns are among the teams that have spoken to P.J. Tucker‘s representation about a possible trade, sources tell Kelly Iko and Law Murray of The Athletic (Twitter link). As we relayed on Thursday, the Clippers have granted Tucker’s agent Andre Buck permission to talk to potential trade partners to try to find his client a new home, but the veteran forward’s $11.54MM cap hit will make it difficult to find a deal that works for L.A.

I think JJ would. He loves undersized 3 & D guys masquerading at PF. I don't think PJ has much to offer though and would rather the Suns pass.

I don't think Tucker has much left in the tank, so I would prefer they look for a PF elsewhere.

We need to make Chuck Liddell the 15th man on the roster and Bud's enforcer. Dont listen, chat with the Iceman for a bit.

(using Liddell as a reference because he's one of the most well know UFC fighters)

Basically what Udonis Harlem was for Miami and Spoelstra.
