Having read most of Flex From Jersey's recent tweets, I expect Cam Johnson back for the 76ers game on March 27th.

I think some fans get upset the Thad Young trade didn't happen as predicted. Nobody bats 1000%.
LOL. He doesn't even bat .200. Wait...where do deleted Tweets factor in? Him saying Books nose isn't broken? The other misses @cheesebeef pointed out? Just curious how that's calculated.

Well his exact words were "he's still at least a week away. No need to rush this. Cam is improving and is expected back end of March early April." That was on March 22.

So his window is anywhere from March 29th until......let me carry the one.....the end of the season which ends April 10th.....you know being early April and all.

He nailed Devin Booker's return before anyone else. Even Shams Charania reported there was talk about a trade for Thad Young involving the Suns.

Read whatever you like.

I read it all. I don't cherry pick like you. What about all the stuff listed here ad nauseum he missed? I mean to say nobody bats 1000 when he hasn't come remotely close is telling about what you like to read no?

No he didn't. He used the protocol to calculate when he would be back like everyone else did. I heard it from the JUMP from multiple media guys. Plus, he said Booker cleared protocols but he didn't. Not until the negative test the next day. I guess if you think that is nailing it.

You lost me at your second sentence.

Meaning that the fact you think he bats anywhere close to 1000 means you only read the stuff you think he gets right and overlooked what he doesn't...let alone his deletes.

If you are going to take the term 1000% literally we can't talk. It was an intentional exaggeration.

If you are going to take Flex literally on almost anything...you are right.

P.S. Even if figurative speech it, exaggeration that extreme doesn't help your case.

Again, read what you like. I take almost everything with a grain of salt except for a select few writers.

If you say so. It doesn't appear as much as you hype him and use things like 1000%.....but not literally.

Only this type of conversation would interest you before an important game. Bye.

LOL I went to go pull up the Booker's return and Cheesie is on that tweet hating on him and he was right. Telling him to delete his account.

That's some funny stuff

and if you notice, I took being wrong like a man and said so... didn't delete my tweet like Flex does when he's repeatedly proven wrong.

also I noticed you just ignored all those times in the playoffs that Flex wasn't even close to right about medical stuff during the Clippers series where he was constantly wrong about Booker's nose, CP3's conditioning and working out and when he'd actually come back.

Wait cheese and flex had twitter beef?
Lol… no. I was on Twitter for like the first time in years, wrote one “delete your account” tweet on a thread where it looked like he was wrong again. He got proved right, someone else called me out and I responded that I was happy to be wrong and that was it.

Health permitting, if Booker stays on his usual pace next season, he will pass Dick Van Arsdale, Shawn Marion and Kevin Johnson for 3rd on Suns' all-time scoring list. Would probably need 3 seasons after this one to claim No. 1 over Walter Davis, whom people forget was a bucket.

So, it has begun. I was on a conference call this morning with a few fellow executives. The bets are on! I am probably stupid because I never bet but in essence, I have taken on 3 bets, and they goaded me into them like Marty McFly being called a chicken. I passed on all bets last year they reminded me. They were talking so much smack on the call this morning. So, what the hell? I am all in.

Person 1 - Is betting me dinner and round of Top Golf Suns don't make it out of the West
Person 2 - Is betting me dinner and round of Top Golf Suns don't make it out of the West. He is so confident that if the Suns do get to the finals, they won't beat who comes out of the East that if they pull that off and win? He will double the payout. He is so damn cocky about it that he says in his mind worst case scenario he breaks even on both bets.
Person 3 - Is betting the Suns don't make it out of the first round but same bet.

In my mind I am like one of those old cowboys in Back to the Future 3 that were telling "Eastwood" not to let them down but that is my message to the Suns. It's going to be really expensive if the Suns disappoint. LOL.

Is anyone else worried about the Suns turning the light switch back on when the playoffs start? I think they are just going to coast until the playoffs start. I am happy they can rest players now but ramping it back up might be a little hard. It's a thought that keeps festering in the back of my mind. Me worry?
