For what it is worth, Cam Johnson is reportedly at least a week away from returning.

Below is an earlier tweet which mentioned Cam Johnson sitting until March 27th.

We've gone back to quoting Flex? I thought we'd learned.
Some of us have. I think at last count he is like 1 for 8 on his Tweets as of late (more like 1 for 10 because he deleted 2 of them). He has some closet fans here.

I don't think he's an actual insider by any means but he's usually in the ballpark on most of his predictions. But I also believe many of us could tout a similar average if we were looking to do so.

It wouldn't be that difficult to phrase a predictable event in such a way as to cover your bases while passing it off as supposed insider information. But still, some people enjoy his tweets so I have no problem with them being shared here.

Exactly what I and many others have said. He throws a ton of noodles against the wall. He is going to hit from time to time. Also, many of the things he repeats has hit the radio first. Likely he repeats it on Twitter right after he hears it there. He also takes softer positions (two) verses like he used to do to give himself wiggle room.

I follow his Twitter. He got called out and blasted multiple times and what did he do? He deleted those Tweets. I think in total I have seen him delete about 5 Tweets now in the past several months.

Suns officially earn second Pacific Division title in a row.....next up....Western Conference Champs. I would be so ready for the playoffs to start if we were not buying time for guys to get healthy.

He is partially right about the #1 seed and the records of those teams winning it all the past decade or so. However, he definitely doesn't think the Suns are as good as their record. That Lakers team is so bad they wouldn't beat any of the other seeds.

If I’m not mistaken suns have now won 11 of 15 games Paul has missed. That’s a 60 wins pace. With also missing cam Johnson for the lions share, book for a few and Payne and crowder missing time too. I mean cmon, that’s RIDICULOUS! This squad is RIDICULOUS.

At least the Suns are getting some love from some sports columnists.

The Scariest thing about this team is that we showed up for training camp better than last year, and have steadily improved ALL year long.
We still have 9 games to hone our skills, most of them against WC teams.
That pass off the backboard to Bridges last night was very telling. The Suns have time to play around and experiment on the fly.
This is a REAL team. The "Fellas" are a family and know each other like brothers. Do people even realize just how efing hard that is to accomplish on a PRO team?
Miami is a tight team but look at that JB debacle.
I'm just glad I lived to see this, for a long time it seemed pretty doubtful.
Also I'm REALLY happy Al McCoy gets to see this.

CP3 probable so Flex is right again. His source has to be some PT or something within the team.

He could have played last night but it was a game time decision. They said on the radio even though he was probable it would be a game time decision tonight as well. So, the decision wasn't made as he indicated. Also, what do you mean again? He was like 1 for 8 on his last several Tweets.
