    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    I noticed that. It's the perfect display of Rankin's reporting.

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    Don't forget that MLE can now be used in trades as exceptions of sorts. So while we may not be able to sign anyone outright, we might be able to pick someone up in same way. Of course we have no picks to sweeten the pot but Ishbia could sweeten deals with cash.

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    The expectations most have are vastly different than last year. This year winning more than 36 games and making the play in would be a positive. Last year winning 36 games when we were supposed to be competing for a championship wasn't even a bad joke, it was disgusting and I believe it made...

    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    I know this question has been asked, Maluach says how to pronounce his name.

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    Rude awakening? LOL Literally no one thinks we aren't rebuilding. The vast majority are hoping for a more enjoyable product over improved record. Record is secondary this season. We need to establish a new culture after KD's "just hooping" nonsense led us to salary cap hell and an empty warchest.

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    Oso played 4 years at Marquette. He isn't changing his jumper at 22 years old. He's played too long at this point to have hope he develops better mechanics.

    Bradley Beal Departure Thread

    I see no issue keeping Booker and letting him decide his future. If he wants out, we can accommodate him but we should not put a sale sign on him before he requests it. That should also keep his value high. After seeing us get low balled for KD, no offers for Beal, and elsewhere how Butler and...

    The 2025 NBA Off Season (includes free agency)

    Hopefully Orlando can stay healthy. They're a bigger version of OKC and will be dangerous once they get some experience. Paolo, Wagner, Suggs, Bane, and a plethora of role players.

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    They have to pay someone. Why not pay someone that keeps fans engaged that also provides a skill. Like I said, they can flip him again later. He has 3 years left on his deal now. Sure, Collins is expiring but the Jazz need guard help. They're loaded with bigs, albeit mediocre bigs, and Grayson...

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    We're talking about an average white NBA player in Utah. Grayson will be hailed as the best thing since caffeine free Pepsi. I'm not one of those guys who overhypes Grayson either. I wasn't a fan of his extension as he was overpaid but he does have value. Pair him with Markkennen and I think...

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    I dig it. I think Utah might do it to help sell some tickets as Grayson would become a fan favorite in Utah and Royce has a history there. Ainge could hang onto them and flip them later for more than he'd get for Collins.

    Bradley Beal Departure Thread

    Great, unlocking a future pick to trade for more garbage. This is like extending the disaster of the KD deal beyond his time here.

    The Collin Gillespie Bandwagon Thread

    I don't recall any issues of him and the coaches regarding pace. He was an extension of Monty on the court and they saw their exits within weeks of each other. He played in Golden State and San Antonio since then and has played quicker. It would be different than last time because he'd be on a...

    Bradley Beal Departure Thread

    He's been depreciating since he's been here, sadly. If he's stretched maybe we can change it to "Bradley Beal Precipitates on the Cap Sheet". Keep everyone on their toes. ;)

    The Collin Gillespie Bandwagon Thread

    I'm wondering if he can play a Ty Jerome role here. Gillepsie is smaller than Jerome but they have similar skill sets on offense.

    Suns trade Kevin Durant to the Rockets

    David Roddy? Wasn't he the linebacker Vogel tried running at PG over IT? Surprised he's still in the league.

    Devin Booker is the greatest player EVER in Suns history

    Kobe's untimely passing has played a role in reshaping his legacy. Great player, absolutely, and anyone who denies that doesn't know basketball. He was probably top 5 in talent of his generation as the #4 or #5 behind Shaq, Duncan, and Dirk. He was a healthier and luckier version of TMac, who...

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    Has Brea been signed yet? I expect him to get a Two-Way deal. Maybe I'm wrong. I think they should at least have him sign an Exhibit 10, or whatever it's called, where the team can convert it to a Two-Way.

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    Ott is not D'Antoni by any stretch. Cleveland, where Ott came from, played with pace and a strong defensive presence. They were more the sort of team who dared people to drive and shut down the interior accordingly. They did that with 2 undersized and relatively poor defenders in Darius Garland...

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    If Beal truly believes he's healthy and can play then he has to give up some salary to be able to go elsewhere if the Suns send him home. It's a weird stalemate now.

    Suns Off Season Changes for 2025-26

    They can't stretch him due to rules over how much dead salary a team can stretch. We have Nassir Little's deal stretched already which is standing in the way. Beal needs to sacrifice at least $20 million I believe in a buyout to be stretch eligible.

    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    Keep working that bubbler and KD will be a distant memory. I'm a little surprised you haven't forgotten him yet.
