    Suns @ Hornets Sunday game thread 3-28-2021

    What is going on with Saric lately? Is he in a rut, or did the other teams figure out his game and adjusted?

    FIBA World Cup 2019

    Here in Croatia I would say that the basketball Olympics are still more important than the World Cup, but the soccer World Cup is infinitely more important than the Olympics soccer. The big difference is that in soccer when there are international qualifications for the World Cup all major...

    FIBA World Cup 2019

    It's not the case for all NBA players though, only USA NBA players. Playing for your national team is a matter of patriotism and national pride, and for many players it is the highest honor and they love playing in these games. Not many players outside of the US team decided to turn down playing...

    Jevon Carter

    I really like Carter too and hopefully he gets a decent chance. I think he could be a solid backup PG.

    Kings @ Suns 12-4-18

    This team is frustrating because there are no signs of progress or a clear direction going forward. It was supposed to be exciting watching the young core try to grab some wins this season, but instead it's just torture. To actually have a chance 2-3 of our players need to be outstanding and...

    Nets @ Suns 11-6- 18

    I understand every team needs a veteran presence of some sort, but all of our signings were down right abysmal. Ryan Anderson is a negative presence whatever way you look at it, Ariza is way overpriced for what he brings to the table (especially with his lacking effort lately), and signing...

    2018-19 Season | Point Guard Discussion

    Butler is a great player on court, but I'm afraid of what his influence would be on our young core because of his intensity.. He had a fallout with teammates both in Chicago and in Minnesota.

    It would be great if we manage to get Dragic somehow.

    How can the Warriors afford everyone?

    I don't really understand how NBA salary cap works, but it's supposed to prevent you from getting 5 all-star players, right? Cause there's no way you could pay everyone. I remember a couple of years ago when the Thunder had to decide if they'll keep Harden or Ibaka, because they also had KD and...

    Your solution for tanking

    The problem with the NBA is that it sucks to be mediocre. Those couple of years when Phoenix was ranked 9th-11th in the West were worse than this year because you have absolutely nothing to hope for. No young exciting players on the roster, barely out of the playoffs, no big free agent will look...

    The 2017-2018 Around the NBA thread

    It doesn't often happen that someone gets 6 steals so it kind of makes sense, still it's a long period without anyone repeating that 4x6 heh. Where do people get these stats anyway? Is there somewhere online that one could read about all these odd records?

    The 2017-2018 Around the NBA thread

    I don't think this trade is that bad for the Clippers. Sure, Griffin is one of the top players at his position in the league, but he has some major downsides. One, being reportedly toxic for the locker room of his team, and second, riddled with injuries. For the last few years he always broke...

    The 2017-2018 Around the NBA thread

    Can someone who watches the Lakers explain Lonzo Ball? One day he has abysmal stats, the next day a triple-double. Is he an amazing player lacking consistency who will be unstoppable later on in his career, or does his game have issues which some teams exploit, and some don't?

    FIBA Eurobasket 2017

    I've watched all 3 Croatia games so far. Bender has a lot of potential, but don't expect much from him this season. He gives solid mintues to the team, but his presence is not big, especially on offense. This is partly because he doesn't make opportunities for himself, and partly because most...

    Western Conference Championship Rockets vs Warriors

    I'm not convinced... that's just a couple of guys on twitter wanting attention and the media taking the bait. There would be more than just two tweets if he was indeed clubbing the night before the game.

    OT: Pistons waive Josh Smith

    http://www.nba.com/2014/news/12/22/pistons-waive-josh-smith/index.html?ls=iref:nbahpt3a They owe him 13.7 million dollars for this season, and another 26 over the next 2... So they basically paid 42 million dollars for Smith to stay away from their team... wow. It's amazing how his value...

    Developing Len, Warren, Goodwin & Ennis

    I apologize for the offtopic but I didn't want to open a new thread just for this... What's up with Zoran Dragic? As I've read on the net, the Suns signed him for 2 years for a total of 4 million dollars, is that number correct? How much of it is guaranteed? He didn't play a single minute as of...
