    Suns @ Nuggets Wednesday game thread 3-27-2024

    This team clearly has a problem but I'll be damned if I can state, definitively, just where it lies. My best guess is that it's mostly due to roster construction but finding out it's all on the Head Coach wouldn't shock me either. On a related subject, am I the only one concerned that...

    Suns @ Nuggets Wednesday game thread 3-27-2024

    Perhaps but the sad truth is that even if the Suns were to dominate the Nuggets, we'd still have a tough schedule in front of us and we'd still have more questions than answers about this team.

    Isaiah Thomas will sign a 10-day contract with the Suns

    Or, maybe left hand not talking to the right hand? I have no clue what's going on here but I don't like that Thomas apparently views his role here differently than Vogel does. If Vogel uses him as he's stated, Thomas won't likely be here after the 10 days.

    Can we blame Vogel?

    I still see the Bucks game day thread along with the others created since the Bucks game (Philly and the Hawks). I'm not sure what's going on for you but the last post to the Bucks thread was Monday night.

    76ers @ Suns Wednesday game thread 3-20-2024

    With an almost complete churning of the roster and a new coaching staff, we probably needed half a season to expect all the parts to come together. But with all the injuries, we find ourselves near the end of the season without really getting that half season of preparation we needed. And it...

    76ers @ Suns Wednesday game thread 3-20-2024

    It's not a good win in that Philadelphia is something like 9-13 since Embiid went down with his injury. But OTOH, we have losses to some of the worst teams in the league this season so any win is a good win.

    Prediction Poll: How many games does Arizona win in the NCAA Tournament

    I'm confident we can win it all and I know we can lose in the first round. So I'll go with the outcome I'd prefer, championship!

    Who will be the next James Bond?

    Prior to Bullet Train I really didn't know much about him other than Kick-Ass and his Marvel work. But I thought both Aaron and Brian Tyree Henry were excellent in Bullet Train.

    Isaiah Thomas will sign a 10-day contract with the Suns

    I think our dilemma was whether to pursure championship level talent or to build a team with every position covered. We went for talent and ignored positional needs. Obviously they belived that with three facilitators (Booker, Beal, KD) on the court at the same time we didn't need a...

    Who will be the next James Bond?

    I have trouble visualizing him in that role too. But I would have never put him in the Tangerine role he played in Bullet Train - he was excellent there so I'll give his Bond a chance.

    ***The Corbin Carroll thread***

    The shoulder concerns me but otherwise, I don't think it's crazy to rate him that high.

    Isaiah Thomas will sign a 10-day contract with the Suns

    I have no idea what he has left but I applaud any effort to shore up the PG spot.

    Post A Youtube Video, Any Youtube Video

    Wow, can't say I've ever heard this song. I know the group (barely) as they showed up on one of my collections (Pebbles, which focused on obscure American garage and punk bands from the 60's - similar to the Nuggets compilations that focused on lesser known British acts from that same era)...

    Frank Vogel Defense

    Well, why not aim high? Go back and convince Jerry to either not sell or sell to someone other than Sarver?

    Name your top 3 problems

    Health, continuity and on-court leadership. We aren't a team, we're a collection of players and that's a problem made even worse when you have no real "quarterback" out there.

    Beal at PG

    Beal isn't a PG, neither is Booker. But that's the situation we chose to be in, I don't see it changing until next season and even then, it will probably just be a slight upgrade to Saban.

    Suns updates and discussion for the 2023-24 season

    He is better but for me it depends on which Lee we're talking about. He started off great last season and I believe led the league in 3pt% for awhile. He was a weak defender but when you're making just shy of .50% of your shots from distance (with good volume), you can survive his defense...

    Thanks for your support, Mainstreet

    So sorry to hear such horrible news Main.

    It's not Rocket Surgery!

    I disagree. Yes we really screwed up not going after a strong PG to run this team but adding a 40 year old journeyman would do absolutely nothing for us. We're in a mess, there are no easy fixes for the situation we're in. All we can do is hope this group of disparate parts finds a way to...

    Frank Vogel Defense

    I don't know who to single out, I don't know who to fire. Maybe it's all or mostly on Vogel but firing a just hired championship coach on the heels of firing a well-respected COY just months before is not a good look. I'd still fire him if they are confident he's the problem but considering...

    Rockets @ Suns Saturday game thread 3-2-2024

    Replace an injured Beal with a healthy CP3 and yeah, we'd be a better team. But CP3 is rarely healthy and although our current roster is a long shot to win it all, it would be even worse with a Beal/CP3 swap.

    Lakers @ Suns Sunday game thread 2-25-2024

    I vacillate between cleaning house and riding with the core for another season regardless of this year's outcome. I don't believe this group will lead to a title but given that it may well be a very long, and very dismal rebuild for us, I lean towards staying the course as long as KD is viable.

    Suns updates and discussion for the 2023-24 season

    Yes we did and we need to play that guy more minutes. Maybe good scouting will negate some of what his presence brings us but I'd rather find that out in March than in May. Right now, healthy, we probably have about a 2% chance of winning it all but if our success when BB is playing with the...

    2023-24 Around the NBA Thread

    Yeah, pretty much the same for me. I liked 60's basketball too but back then, there just wasn't much coverage until Phoenix got it's own team.
