    Thanks for the insight. It will be interesting to see how the rest of the playoffs play out.

    Gambo Said this today about Doncic .........

    The whole team got destroyed in Game 1. It was never really even a game. Hard to take too much away from looking at statistics, but I try to glean as much info as I can.

    Gambo Said this today about Doncic .........

    It's also a different style of game entirely. To put things in perspective, Real Madrid attempted 58 shots today. Yesterday, the Rockets shot 96 times.

    Gambo Said this today about Doncic .........

    Three times. Also had the biggest 5 free throws down the stretch. Maybe he was trying to prove he is worthy of the #1 pick by doing his best KAT impression.

    Gambo Said this today about Doncic .........

    PIR is supposed to be the important stat in Euroleague. For what it's worth, Luka ended up with the second best PIR on the winning team. Definitely not a standout game, but it doesn't seem like he played awful, at least judging by statistics. Of course, statistics can be misleading and 8...

    Gambo Said this today about Doncic .........

    He hasn't had much of an impact this game, but following the box score it shows he had key assists down the stretch and he may have just put the game away with a steal (from Mike James) and two free throws with a minute to go. How do you know about defensive mistakes? Are you watching a feed?

    For those who wish to follow along, Real Madrid is currently playing Game 2 of a 5-game playoff series. http://www.euroleague.net/main/results/showgame?gamecode=246&seasoncode=E2017#!boxscore Doncic has only put up one shot, but his team is up by 7 with one quarter to go.

    Interesting how perspectives are vastly different on different boards. The other Suns board I read regularly has a poll up asking who fans would take if they had the #1 pick. Doncic is up on Ayton by nearly a 2:1 margin.

    Bargnani was the #1 pick (in a weak draft, but still...)

    Has to be. That would explain Duval and Diallo being where they are.

    I found out why Eric Bledsoe can't stop Terry Rozier from scoring in the Celtics-Bucks series...

    2017-2018 Draft Prospects watch.

    Yes, and Buffalo is not nearly as good as Panathinaikos. What's interesting here is that, unlike Ayton, Doncic has multiple chances to adjust and respond. It's a best three of five series. Will be very interesting to see how he does from here.

    Compensation for Budenholzer?

    In fairness, that roster was a tire fire. Worst roster in basketball imho.

    2017-2018 Draft Prospects watch.

    Supposedly one of those shots was a heave, so it was really more like four shots. The whole team just got stomped. It's good that they will play at least two more times. How a prospect responds to adversity matters a ton.

    2017-2018 Draft Prospects watch.

    From what I can gather, Luka Doncic struggled big time in Game 1 of Real Madrid's Euroleague playoff matchup against a really good Greek team. Doncic was ineffective against Greek Freak's older brother (athletic swing) and Real Madrid got blown out by a team featuring Nick Calathes and Mike...

    Compensation for Budenholzer?

    I very much want Budenholzer. I think he is by far the best option out there and could be a real difference-maker! I hate that compensation has become such a part of the conversation though. As AZStevenCal said, it can't help our leverage that it is being discussed so much across the media...

    Compensation for Budenholzer?

    Agreed! Also, I could go another five seasons without a debate about player hair and would be super happy about that! :)

    Impressive.

    A new Brandon Knight?

    I just think we need to get past "last resort" status, particularly at point guard. I couldn't stand watching Knight play basketball. I like that he seems to have changed his mindset and I'm open to him finding a place on the team even. But if he's our first option at point guard...it's just not...

    A new Brandon Knight?

    If Knight or Payton is our starting point guard next year, you can +1 me on every Cheesebeef anti-McDonough post.

    If the Suns get Budenholzer, I'm not even mad about the drawing anymore.

    Not sure about 1 and 2, but your 3 and 4 look just about right.

    Choose The Suns Next Head Coach?

    Budenholzer is the first name beyond Jay Wright I can really get excited about! He would be a huge get imho!
