    Bradley Beal Appreciation Thread

    Beal definitely deserves an appreciation thread. This team doesn't make it late season surge without him. He's adapted his game and become more of a PG than before and also a tenacious defender who gets up in an opponent's jersey to pester them. This team's success will largely depend on...

    What can (or should) be done to fix the team this season?

    Every thread is devolving into what's wrong with this team and then turns into various theories of how to fix it so I thought we could use a centralize place to address the issues. Is it health related? Will Beal returning fix things? Does a trade need to be made? Have the Suns tuned out Vogel...

    New Suns Jerseys for 2023-24 Season

    Seems that the Suns Uniform Tracker Twitter was right, according to those who attended the event this weekend. There apparently was a season ticket holder/sales pitch event this weekend and at that there was a sizzle reel that featured these uniforms.

    23-24 Season Win Prediction

    Provided another trade isn't made, our roster appears set. Inevitably guys will miss some time due to injuries and such, which will effect the teams record as a whole but that's unavoidable. I don't want to get into where this team will go in the playoffs, that's another topic entirely. How many...

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    I've seen a lot of people change their tune on whether Ayton should be traded this off-season now that the Suns will have a new coach, and system, next season. That's totally understandable but if the Suns wait and he doesn't show up ready to go, his value will shrink even more as it won't look...

    Suns to sign Terrance Ross after buyout

    Here's an article about it. He was expected to sign in Dallas after being bought out by the Magic but apparently had a change of heart and chose Phoenix instead. So not only is a solid addition, it keeps him from a potential opponent. That's always good. Ross still has game. He's 32 and has been...

    Which Suns player will improve the most in the 22-23 season?

    Thought I'd gauge expectations a little as far as who people think will take the biggest step forward this season. I'm referring to overall game also, not just scoring but of course scoring is a big part of taking a step forward. Will one of the two-way players become legit NBA players and part...

    Booker signs Super Max Extension - 2022 Offseason

    I think this deserves it's own thread as well. Of course this isn't "KD requests trade to Phoenix" level but it is still big news. Devin Booker and the Suns are finalizing a 4 year $212 million dollar extension. He's expected to sign it next week when the moratorium is over and they work out...

    NBA Introducing 2 New Awards named after Magic & Bird

    So the league will start awarding Eastern and Western Conference Final MVP awards this year. The Western award will be named after Magic Johnson and the Eastern Award will be named after Larry Bird. Kind of cool. It's not groundbreaking by any means but it will help recognize some players who...

    Preferred 2nd Round Opponent, Mavs or Jazz?

    Now that the Pelicans are behind us, finally, who do you want to see in round 2? Luka and the Mavericks or the Gobert Jazz. Donovan Mitchell is hobbled and I don't know if he'll play, which makes Utah even worse offensively. Mitchell will play in game 6 of round 1 but has quad issues.

    Preferred 1st Round Opponent 2021 Playoffs

    We could face 1 of 4 teams, the Wolves, Clippers, Pelicans or Spurs. They're all in the Play-In tournament. Who do you want the Suns to face? The winner of game 1 (Clippers @ Wolves) gets the 7th Seed and avoids us. The loser will face the winner of game 2 (Spurs @ Pelicans). Game 3 is played...

    Sarvers future as owner

    The much hyped and sensationalized article was released by ESPN today allegeding Sarver is an immature, racist, misogynist, buffoon. I don't think anyone is very surprised by any of the report given his history here as Suns owner. Now the big question is whether there is enough evidence to have...

    NBA 75th Anniversary Team/75 Greatest Players

    The NBA is revealing their 75th Anniversary team over the first 3 days of season. They've announced 25 players so far. It'll be interesting to see who is knocked off the 50th Anniversary Team because there's no way they only add 25 players from the last 25 years. Here is a link to the list...

    2021-22 Regular Season Win Total

    How many wins do you think the Suns will rack up this season? This will be a full 82 game season. I figured I'd offer a few choices, obviously 41 or fewer wins would mean lottery bound. 42-48 would point towards being a fringe playoff team that might have to deal with a play in game. 49-54...

    Doug Franz is leaving 98.7 Sports

    Seems its the end for Doug and Wolf. Not that they were a good source for Suns news but hopefully their absence will improve Suns coverage overall at 98.7. I believe its an improvement already that they won't pretend to talk Suns anymore. Only 1 person here ever tried using them as a valid...

    Booker pulled his hammy during game 3 of the finals

    I saw this yesterday and was surprised no one brought it up. Booker pulled his hamstring during the 3rd game of the Finals. That was the game he sat out the 4th quarter and everyone wondered what the deal was. He came back and had some huge games later and those were all done with a bad...

    Suns sign Javale McGee

    Figured I'd do this so people don't need to dig through the free agency thread for Suns moves. We've also resigned Cam Payne and Chris Paul, details for those deals are in the Chris Paul thread. Suns have signed McGee to a 1 year deal for approximately $5 million dollars.

    Letter from Sarver

    This has been posted on virtually all Suns social media. You can find it on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc. I'm not going to post all those links though, here's the letter. Hope he's committed to the future as much as he was committed this season, if so then I don't think he'll be the main...

    Damn proud of this team!!

    I thought I'd get some positive discussion going. The culture has most definitely changed here. Hopefully James Jones is able to build on the success of this year and get us back in the future. No one thought swapping Rubio for CP3 would lead us this far so no one can say for certain what it...
