    2022-23 Around the NBA Thread

    That 7 point game was partly due to Jacque Vaughn not utilizing him effectively, low minutes, weird rotations. Probably an outlier---not saying he'd have scored a ton more, but that bad game was circumstantial and somewhat beyond his control.

    2022-23 Around the NBA Thread

    Absolutely true. The Nets were better offensively and defensively with him on the floor, statistically and by the eye test. They lost when Kyrie shot them out of the game in the 4th.

    Markieff & Marcus Morris: "Suns have worst fans in the NBA"

    Totally agree. Being at games is an aural assault. The crowd is constantly hectored into clapping and "mak[ing] some noise," while the players have to play through idiotic sound effects and snippets of bad canned music. It ruins the game. If they were smart, they'd go old school. Mic up the...

    Furor Over Spain's Controversial Slit-Eye Basketball Photo

    LOL--yes, of course, "to liberal." This "liberality" you refer to used to be called "politeness," or being "self-aware." Or "caring" about "other people" who are "different." Yeah, what a crazy world we live in now. Ruined. Every poster here who has expressed some degree of discomfort...

    Legal moves in Donaghy case

    I was just about to post an interview Henry Abbott did with a professional gambler. He makes an interesting point about a game we were all up in arms about, back in January 2, 2006, Suns v. Knicks. That game was egregious. Donaghy worked that game: "[Q]Be very interested in your reaction to...

    POP vs D'Anton

    The blame obviously falls to D'Antoni. Barbosa and Diaw as the go-to guys? Really? Not fouling to put any Spur at the line? Once again, less than Popovich, whatever he may or may not have scripted with Duncan....

    The Phoenix basketball team who calls US Airways Center home just won a Championship

    Well, I do agree that there are differences worth taking note of here; the Suns' difficulties are not transposable completely into the Mercury's situation, and vice versa. But there are significant similarities between the Suns and Mercury, insofar as both teams are predicated on speed, smaller...

    Phoenix Defeats San Antonio To Reach Finals (WNBA)

    You may be over-reacting. I think BC is merely saying that he (she?) doesn't like the Suns GM. The owner is the same.
