It's almost like he has a habit of making high-risk decisions without thinking them through carefully.
ishbia didn't go group style when buying the suns he owns like 83% - he will more than make his money back despite buying high - should he desire

maaaaaaaan..... far as i can tell with have everything but a true pg - and i'm starting to think that's by design - i'm starting to wonder if book prefers it that way
honestly, if Book prefers it that way, he's an idiot considering that without a PG, he's only made the playoffs 2 times out of 9 years and even in those two years is an absolutely embarrassing 0-8, while losing those 8 straight games by an average margin of 16 ppg.

He's not an idiot; it's just that winning isn't a top priority for him. But we've known that for a while.

Not sure what Booker is supposed to do about the PG situation. He and Colin played well together last year. Hopefully he pushes for Colin to start. They’ve tried bringing in other point guards… they’ve just sucked.

I think he likes playing of the ball and in motion, just he’s been stuck in a situation where the rest of the team sucks at passing.

Don't forget Booker and Green were supposed to be co Point guards. At least that was the way they initially sold it. Green was supposed to bring it up more and take pressure off Booker. From what I saw, Green isn't that great bringing it up.

Hope both of them can stay healthy at the same time so we can see some improvement from backcourt 2025!
