    Jalen Green 'Preciation Thread

    The thing I noticed with Green is that he's just too slight of build. He gets pushed off his driving path way too easily and can't really finish through contact. It's probably a reason he takes so many long twos and step-backs.

    Suns draft Rasheer Fleming with the 31st pick

    Dunn's biggest issue on defense right now is that he fouls a lot, which sometimes negates his positive contributions. I thought that'd be more of a problem with Fleming but he seems a bit more disciplined and is able to recover cleaner when he's beat.

    Suns @ Celtics Monday Game Thread, 3-16-2026

    That's a great point. If I'm not mistaken the Suns have gone small both crunch periods, without a lob threat in the dunker's spot. All the screens have been guards/wings for Book, allowing smaller, swarmier defenders that's harder for him to take advantage of.

    Suns @ Celtics Monday Game Thread, 3-16-2026

    The team is more successful when Book gets the ball coming off actions already in motion. In crunch time last couple of games, they pitch it to him at a standstill, sometimes at the elbow, sometimes at the top of the key. He just gets swarmed in those situations, and hasn't been able to be as...

    Suns @ Celtics Monday Game Thread, 3-16-2026

    Losing the math game. Both teams made 21 FGs, Phoenix is making lots of 2's, Boston converting on 5 more 3's (11 FTM for Phx, 10 for Boston).

    Suns @ Celtics Monday Game Thread, 3-16-2026

    I don't like when both Green and Book are off the floor. Feel like they could get a better rotation where one of them is on the floor with a secondary creator (Gillespie / Allen) at all times.

    hard to tell with just the 2 shots here but looks like they're working to speed up Fleming's release?

    Suns draft Rasheer Fleming with the 31st pick

    Handles and a mid range shot and he's on his way to Kawhi. Same freakish length and athleticism.

    Suns @ Raptors Friday Game Thread, 3-13-2026

    The team resorted to 'my turn/your turn' hero ball in the 4th quarter of both the last 2 games. Indiana was actively trying to not win the game (sat Zubac and Nembhard in big stretches of the 2nd half) so it wasn't exposed but it was pretty glaring this today. Needed more Fleming minutes in the...

    Suns Hire Ott as New Coach

    Mazulla will get some consideration as well, considering how well the Celtics played without major pieces from last year.

    Celtics/Twolves B2B followed up with SAS all on the road is just brutal.

    Crazy, 4 teams within half a game, Suns 2 back.

    Suns @ Pacers Thursday Game Thread, 3-12-2026

    They have a pick that goes out if it's between 5-9 so they're heavily invested in tanking.

    Suns trade for Center Mark Williams

    Sounds like he'll be out a while if he's still in a boot.

    Suns trade for Center Mark Williams

    Here's the list of salaries for Cs in the league: https://www.spotrac.com/nba/contracts/_/position/c Jarrett Allen's new deal is going to be $30M+ next year, Claxton is getting $24M, Wendell Carter Jr is getting $19.5M... I think Williams will get $20M+ easily.

    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    I think his upside defensively is some facsimile of Embiid. Not the fleetest of foot, but big, tall, long, surrounded by defenders that funnel players to him.

    Pelicans @ Suns Friday Game Thread, 3-6-2026

    Much better game by Green, made a concerted effort to drive more than last game and got to the line a bunch. Khaman's minutes were fantastic. Loved the defensive presence, definitely a game to build on.

    Suns draft Khaman Maluach with the 10th pick

    Great stint by Maluach in the 4th there. 5 blocks is fantastic.

    Pelicans @ Suns Friday Game Thread, 3-6-2026

    I'd like to see Haysmith get some run. He's off the injury report and should be a more capable PoA defender which Phoenix has been sorely missing since Brooks/Goodwin have been out. Right now it's just Dunn and he's a bit more inconsistent with that role.

    Welp, Kuminga just got offered a lot of money. Where does he end up?

    Yeah, we've seen hot stretches from him before. He *should* have the minutes to work through any cold stretches with Atlanta though.

    Paradise (Hulu)

    Season 1 had perhaps my favorite single episode of television of the last few years (S01E07 - The Day). The rest of the season never quite maintains those heights through season 1 but excited to dive into season 2.
