    2016 NBA Draft thread

    I've been all over Austria, Switzerland and West Germany but other than that I've seen nothing of the world outside North America. But if I were given a choice of where to live I think I'd choose Singapore. I am in awe of that place.

    The future of the Phoenix Suns

    No it's not. Sometimes people just have different opinions. I don't consider myself a good evaluator and I'm even worse when it comes to judging college talent but it worries me that both players flaws are so obvious. Simmons strengths are still intriguing despite his on court weaknesses but...

    The future of the Phoenix Suns

    That's true in a year where it's a 2 player draft and strong at the top but not necessarily so in a year when the 2 best appear to be there by default.

    Grizzlies @ Suns 3-21-16

    I think replacing Tucker will help even more than the presence of Booker. Bledsoe had mostly stopped making that stupid jump in the air and look for a teammate move and only went back to it when the defense started closing down passing and penetrating lanes earlier than expected. If the...

    2016 NBA Draft thread

    I don't remember him saying anything about not wanting to split PG duties with Bledsoe, do you have a link? I know Jason Kidd tried and failed to convince him to move to the shooting guard spot but I'd hoped that was behind him now. He knew what his responsibilities were going to be and he...

    Grizzlies @ Suns 3-21-16

    I don't know that I said he'd spoil our tanking efforts, I'm pretty sure I just allowed for the possibility. I had said we probably wouldn't win more than 3 or 4 more games this season and my guess is I gave myself an out on this prediction if Knight returned and played well. He isn't fully...

    Timberwolves @ Suns 3-14-16

    I agree. But all I'd said was that I think Gobert has been the better player so far. It's anyone's guess who will have the better career but Giannis has up-side rarely seen. So I have no doubt that if they redrafted he'd be the target of most teams.

    Timberwolves @ Suns 3-14-16

    Gobert is a difference maker on the defensive end and he's averaging close to 10 points a game this season. He'll never be a scary offensive threat on his own but we heard similar comments about DeAndre Jordan. Usually I'd prefer a great offensive player over a great defensive player but it's a...

    2015-16 Around the NBA

    It never crossed my mind that it was sarcasm but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be apparent to most people.

    2015-16 Around the NBA

    I read it but I don't see the best news ever. What did I miss?

    Timberwolves @ Suns 3-14-16

    I think Rudy Gobert has been the best player from that class. But I think Giannis has more potential than any player from that season and in a re-draft would be an easy decision as the first player taken.

    Tankathon Rankings

    I agree. He's probably been the hero of 4 games this season but he's been the primary contributor to many of our losses. Using him 40 minutes a night seems like a move taken straight from the tanking playbook.

    Timberwolves @ Suns 3-14-16

    He still isn't the best player from that class (yet) but I agree, he'd be the likely number one pick. His potential and his measurables are off the chart and he won't turn 22 until the start of next season.

    Should the Suns chase Harrison Barnes?

    I think they should chase him just like they did Lebron and Aldridge. As long as they don't catch him. Seriously, he'd be a nice player to have but even in this era of fast rising salaries, max is too much for him. I'd love to have him on a contract similar to the one that both Bledsoe and...

    Tankathon Rankings

    Me too. But I don't think it's a big deal.
