    Promising opportunity is one thing but minutes is another. If he wants to be part of a winner then he needs to out play his competition. No contender should offer development time in games to youngsters.

    That also explains the weight gain. At least it appeared to be mostly muscle but living with a pregnant woman is tough.

    There is a qualifying rights sort of deal. It's basically restricted free agency. There are cap holds and such for those QO's. I'm 99% certain of this but finding anything other than folks saying what I am here is proving difficult. Apparently the Grizzlies have encountered this over the last...

    No one can sign him away since he's on a Two-Way. I'd imagine the Suns have told him to keep it up and things will take care of themselves. They can pay him long term next summer when there is an opening. Only way I can see him signing full time with us early is an injury where we need another...

    Just caught up, nothing to add other than Oso was a pleasant surprise. I can definitely see him as a modern day Diaw if he develops some. Only difference really is rather than not shooting when open he can't shoot. Diaw would drive me nuts with how he'd wait so long looking for another pass.

    Little different because all reports are that TJ wants to play. The Clippers don't have him factoring into their plans and this goes back to the trade deadline.

    Worth noting that TJ makes $11.0 million this season as part of a player option he picked up back in June. I don't blame him for picking up that option since he wasn't getting that in free agency. He's looking at minimum deals here on out, maybe a hair more if a team really wants him. Saw...

    Appreciate it. I'll be through the app so I'm not sure if I'll get NBA TV stuff. I got a fair bit of ESPN stuff from ESPN+ sub and I also have Max which gets me TNT simulcasts through the B/R section. Damn apps are like cable now, need a half dozen to get everything.

    Does anyone know, does League Pass get G-League games also or just NBA? Figured I'd ask here since there's a lot on folks with experience. I have the whole league package, not just 1 team.

    That and he's not guaranteed beyond this season. So we might be able to get a 2nd rounder or two from him around the deadline.

    I was thinking it was an early game like most Sunday games but 6:30 pm is brutal.

    That looks better than mine. Mine looks awfully phallic. It gets weird looks from guests regularly and raises some questions. https://a.co/d/5SHlI4m

    I think we'll see Okogie traded or waived before long. Notice how his name has been absent from conversations for some time. He's the odd man out on a tradeable contract.

    I'm in Tempe right on the east side of AZ Mills, so pretty close to South Mountain. I seem to get the AZ Family Sports channel a bit better than Channel 3. Both come in good but channel 3 will hiccup occasionally while 44 (I think that's the number) stays consistently good all the way through...

    Yeah it was ugly all around. At least the Nuggets and Celtics had the excuse of being in Abu Dhabi but the Lakers and Wolves were in Cali.

    I forgot they drafted Clingan. Yeah, Ayton is a goner. I wouldn't be surprised if they sell low, like 2 1st round picks. Maybe just 1 if the right team bites.

    Next year is his contract year. This year we'll see his usual up and down antics but apparently Portland wants to unload him. I'd love to see him land in Washington with Poole and Kuzma to form the leagues first Negative 3. That would be entertaining to watch 3 guys who don't give a single F...

    Was coming here to post that. Dude is cursed. He needs to reevaluate his whole training and diet regime because he's always hurt. Excellent player when healthy but it's sad we don't get to see him healthy. Ayton should be relieved because I believe RW3 would play him off the floor and make him...

    I'm curious how Russ will fit in there. I think he'll be great or awful, no in between.

    This 180 on Gordon doesn't make sense to me. I know he made some comments about the looks he was getting, or lack there of, that were a bit questionable on their own but given all we've learned about Vogel and last season's mess of a system, I thank Gordon for speaking up. EG was the prized free...

    Suns Announce Plans for a G-League Team in 2024-25

    Saw a deal on Facebook for the Suns Live package that gives you access to all games for the season through the Suns Live app plus 2 tickets to the Valley Suns for $100. If anyone is in the market for the season pass for the Suns I'd definitely check that out. I couldn't grab a link since it was...

    I hope KD is ready to run. Booker is young and has proven his willingness to play in many different styles so I don't see him holding up the offense. Beal played quick in Washington but I'm not sure how his body will hold up running a lot, again. Durant is the question mark though as he's 36+...

    I hope and pray that they're more enjoyable to watch. I don't know how they can be worse in that regard but I want to see that they care as much about the outcome of games as I do. Last season it didn't look that way, more often than not. There was almost no pride or joy their performance most...

    Don't get me wrong as far as Chriss and Bender are concerned. They were bad picks and unlikely to develop however if you inherit a team with those 2 then it's your job as a GM, coach, or whatever to try and develop those guys. Not giving them a PG to play off of put them even further behind the...
