    Booker agrees to 2 year 145 million dollar contract extension

    Booker agrees to 2 year 145 million dollar contract extension

    I was trying to find a way to say what Gerald did. I am not worried about what Booker makes. He has a decade here and has earned each cent he's getting so long and I have no right to say different when the Suns are paying 32 year old Bradley Beal more next year for less and paid 37 year old KD...

    Karate Kid: Legends

    Have you ever been to an MMA gym? The culture is big but it stays in it's lane. You don't see it unless you actually look for it outside of the bro's running around in Tapout, Affliction, etc sort of apparel. Even that isn't really bleeding into other cultures since respect and responsibility...

    Booker agrees to 2 year 145 million dollar contract extension

    Gerald Bourget hits on each key point here. I don't care what anyone says, I'm happy Booker is extended. He deserves it. He's been loyal to the Suns to a fault just like us fans are, usually. https://gophnx.com/devin-booker-contract-extension-obnoxious-reaction/

    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    I know he never maintained or hit the next level but I see Gorgui Dieng in him. Maluach is better but that isn't a bad floor. Dieng was averaging 10 ppg, 8 rpg, 1 block, 1 steal, and 37% from deep.

    James Jones Leaves Suns for NBA Front Office Job

    Yeah, for better and worse, Ish is in it for the long haul and for the competition. He was a NCAA walk on. You don't get through Tom Izzo's program if you aren't dedicated to the game.

    The 2025 NBA Off Season (includes free agency)

    OKC's big 3 compliment each other so well and seem to be true friends. I don't believe ego's will break that team up like it did with Russ, KD, and Harden. Shai is the leader but he's not overbearing and JDub and Chet seem to have his back entirely. If they can continue building around those 3...

    James Jones Leaves Suns for NBA Front Office Job

    The feud is on Monty but the fallout is on JJ. Jones sent Crowder home and didn't replace him. Jones also passed on the offer from Washington for Hachimura in exchange for Crowder.

    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    Don't believe this has been posted. It's a really good video that breaks down Maluach's game pre-draft. It was made 3 months ago and discusses potential landing spots at the end of the video. Of course the Suns aren't mentioned since we didn't have a pick then. However the breakdown and...

    Bradley Beal Departure Thread

    I've watched Kleen's podcast and I still think we're talking past each other. There's the 2025-26 season, which is coming up, and that will count regardless. Then if we stretch him then he's on the books for the 27, 28, and 29 seasons. Which is 4 years of paying him, since 26 is included. The...

    Bradley Beal Departure Thread

    Got a link? I still believe you're missing or not counting this season when totaling what the Suns are responsible for. I understand we may not need a buyout after this year but if that were the case then we definitely shouldn't stretch him as we can eat the final year and be done.

    Bradley Beal Departure Thread

    I think you're misunderstanding how stretching is done. The full season figure is what is accounted for and not what portion remains in the season. So if we waived and stretched him halfway through the year we will have paid $25 million or so of his $50 million salary, the stretch amount doesn't...

    Bradley Beal Departure Thread

    Not really because it requires eating this year. Making it a case of 4 vs 5 years overall. If we keep him then we may as well keep the salary full and let it expire after next year vs stretching it.

    James Jones Leaves Suns for NBA Front Office Job

    Could he? Mikal was a Sarver favorite and the deal also expanded the luxury tax bill. Sarver was suspended and his ego wouldn't allow a KD trade to go down without being front and center to bask in the spotlight. Sarver wasn't signing off on a higher tax bill either, especially not after his...

    We aren't building a team with cap space anytime soon. Might as well pay Book and hope he can lure someone here somehow.

    OKC has 2 J Williams. They spell Jalen different. JDub is the starting SF, spelled Jalen, and Jaylin, who you mentioned, is a backup PF/C.

    Bradley Beal Departure Thread

    What do mean a half season more? Yes, Ishbia saves money but the Suns don't. Cap figures aren't broken like that. Whether he's waived and stretched today or 6 months from now, the amount is spread over 5 years and the salary this season doesn't change because we paid a portion because part of...

    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    Such a liability he's anchored defenses that have made it to the WCF in back to back years. How is it embarrassing to be 1 of the final 4 teams standing? If there was a cheat code why do his teams have that success in the playoffs? You can dislike Gobert but the hyperbole is over the top.

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    Gambo said to expect a decision. If Beal isn't bought out then he won't be. Some took it as a clock on the buyout but I believe that was wishful thinking.

    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    Being the greatest Suns big of all time isn't nearly as difficult as being the greatest big of all time. I'll get on the Suns hype train and believe he can do that. I don't see him as a perennial All-Star big though. I'd guess most would say Alvin Adams was the best Suns big ever but he wasn't a...

    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    I know the comparison will likely draw some hate or raise eyebrows but I feel like Maluach can be what Ayton was here statistically only with much more force. He finishes stronger and guards the rim better. If he can switch then the sky is the limit. Ive been huge on Maluach since I started...

    Dunn praising Maluach. I'm curious how Maluach will defend in switches. He has the athleticism to keep up with guys. Encouraging to hear Dunn hype that.

    Suns trade Kevin Durant to the Rockets

    It is bizarre. I'd understand it better if he didn't have stints in Golden State and Brooklyn but you'd think the attention he garnered there would have changed the narrative but it didn't, at all.
