    Make trade to save season??

    So now Ayton sprains his ankle which 'could' take a long time to heal. Bookers forearm...day to day Baines... on again off again Rubio...pffft...can he last? So how bad do we want to make the playoffs? We have draft chips to play (2 firsts this year and next?) Plus young guys to deal. I...

    Did teams tank this year?

    I was reading an article talking about the lottery and ended by saying "Tanking teams got punished" ...like wth? Supposedly the flattened odds were supposed to curb tanking. Did teams really tank or are bad teams just being punished now for being bad? And still being called tankers?!?

They are pretty much a loaded team already and now there is talk of them...

    How do you watch the suns?

    I'm posting this because I just got off the phone with DirecTV and something doesn't sound right. I just changed my package. I had the "ultimate" package which included all the movie channels plus Fox sports Arizona which I watched suns games on. Well I rarely watch movies so I didn't need all...

    Who is our PF of the future?

    I know it's too early to really know the answer to this but who do you prefer or think to be our power forward of the future? Chriss or Bender? I know both players can play different positions and that is kind of the problem as well. They both seem like a "Jack of all trades but master of none"...

    Emergency TANK!

    http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/...ery-reform-guidelines-resting-healthy-players So the NBA did it. They passed the new rules that favor big market teams. They made it harder for smaller struggling teams to get better. The fix is in and it's more obvious than ever!! The rules don't affect...

    wassup Bled!

    Glad you aren't going anywhere Bled because you be playing some fine Bball. Sorry for checking out other pg's...continue on dawg! :clapping: Really though, Bledsoe has been playing well and has been healthy. He is sort of the leader on the suns... because of that and because we have Jackson...

    Jackson/Warren tandem

    Aquiring Jackson is making me appreciate Warren more. Jackson seems to be everything Warren isn't but Warren is probably the better shooter/scorer. I don't hate Warren but I don't envision him being our starter for years either. As an eventual backup to Jackson he still seems valuable to me...

    King's #5 & #10 for Fox?

    Rumor has it today that that the Kings are "infatuated" with Fox and are willing to deal #5 and #10. It's interesting because one way or another this affects the Suns. If Philly deals the pick and Fox is selected then Jackson falls in our laps OR the suns deal #4 for #5 & #10. I'd be...

    Target JACKSON

    Ok... I think the general consensus around here is the best we could do in this draft is to aquire Jackson. He's in our draft "range"... meaning he 'could' fall to the suns...or maybe not. Should we guarantee he falls to us by trading up or let nature take it's course and hope he falls in our...

    JFK DARK?

    On my computer on this website I used to see JFK dark background as an option. Now I use my smartphone and I don't see that option... I prefer a black background because it's easier on my eyes at night when I read on here. Is there a way of bringing that back? Especially for phone use?

    Dragan Bender

    Just curious about how people feel about Dragan Bender after this season.

    BOOKER & FULTZ

    Assuming we get the #1 pick and take Fultz... Who assumes the "Franchise" tag? Can Booker/Fultz coexist and thrive together? How would it rank with current backcourts in the NBA? Can Bledsoe be kept or is it a foregone conclusion that he has to leave? If Bledsoe leaves...Does this version...

    Josh Jackson

    I felt like starting this thread with a cannonball at Fultz and Ball. Josh Jackson I think should be the number one pick for the suns for a very simple reason. You don't have to dismantle the suns if we draft him. You don't have to trade Bledsoe...You get defense.. you get solid passing and...

    Bled+picks=top 7?

    Just wondering if we should just throw our chips in to try and crack the top seven. We have Bledsoe...next year's pick...And the Miami picks. Can it be done? Should it be done? I'd probably try to hold on to one of the Miami picks and not include both. Not sure if any team in the top seven...

    #1 or BUST! The O'Mighty DRAFT Thread

    Do we need a tank thread? Do you want one? You got it here it is all things tank related midway through the season as the trade deadline approaches. We are in hot pursuit of the "other" championship hoovering at the number #2 pick right now. #1 might be a little out of reach but with the help of...

    Alex Len...LET HIM GO!

    I had high hopes for this dude when we drafted him..He looked athletic as all heck for a big man. His overall build looked good...He's no skinny center. Well...After a few years I'm still trying to figure out what he excells at or what he even has the "chance" to do good on a adequate level...

    Trade Bledsoe instead of Knight?

    There is an article floating the idea of trading Bled over Brandon. Someone else can put the link...but I was thinking that might not be a bad idea. Bledsoe has more trade value right now. Plus trading Bled would help us tank and get us a higher pick in a PG loaded draft. Keeping Knight will...

    How did this season go??

    I stopped watching the Suns after they traded JRich...figured they were tanking. Looks like they wont make the playoffs so the tank worked apparently....Did I miss anything??

    Anyone wish Amare well in NY?

    I'm really curious to see how Amare does on the Knicks next season. I was wondering too about your thoughts and/or predictions about Amare or the Knicks in general. Personally I don't think Stoudemire can hack it being the focal point on offense. Not only did Nash help with Amares offense but...

    Rules question

    The other night in the Oklahoma game when the Suns were running time off the clock at the end of the game made me think of something I've thought before which is....What is to prevent a player from throwing the ball straight up in the air as high as he can to burn a few seconds off the clock? Is...

    Good draft for Suns

    Suns didnt sell the pick or trade it away and we got a seven footer who works hard. Not bad at all. At least we are all pleased finally. Some may think they dont like the pick but they dont like having the pick sold even less so they are happy too on some level. I like the Suns drafting an...
