    Suns @ Timberwolves Tuesday Playoff game thread 4-23-2024 - Game 2

    Not really since we have even more pick swaps than traded picks. Pick swaps become sunk cost only after stupidily beginning the rebuild as well.

    Suns @ Timberwolves Tuesday Playoff game thread 4-23-2024 - Game 2

    One of the stupidest things in the NBA is first trading all of your own picks then start to rebuild.

    Watching Suns games

    I really like Booker, he is a great player. But deep in my heart he is simply not at the level of Steve Nash. Nash meant so much for those great Suns teams, he was the computer, the engine and the oil.

    From that list Delon Wright would be my choice.

    Suns updates and discussion for the 2023-24 season

    I wouldn't. He is a borderline NBA player.

    Suns @ Lakers Thursday game thread 1-11-2024

    No, but since he has absolutely no idea what's going on in the NBA, it doesn't mean anything.

    Suns @ Clippers Monday game thread 1-8-2024

    The only bright spot of a quick rebuilding that Beal will quickly want to move on as well, so his no-trade clause won't really matter.

    Mavericks @ Suns Monday (Christmas Night) game thread 12-25-2023

    It's wonderful to see how relaxed Vogel is and how great time he is having.

    Mavericks @ Suns Monday (Christmas Night) game thread 12-25-2023

    Yes, I never really understood what was the point of letting Biyombo go. Maybe it was a sophisticated consideration that his roster spot was saved since Azubuike more or less can re-produce Biyombo while being only a 2-way contract. Problem is that this might be not true and continouity would...

    Mavericks @ Suns Monday (Christmas Night) game thread 12-25-2023

    Embarrassing but well-deserved loss. Other than Allen getting hot and hitting everything in the 3rd, DAL's defense and Doncic's offense did dominate the Suns. Metu has shown that he is a valuable benchplayer. Durant's turnovers mostly coming from pick-and-rolls where he is trying to give slow...

    Suns @ Kings Friday game thread 12-22-2023

    I can't believe this, never seen a team fragile like this. Someone (preferably multiple players) is always missing: key player, a starter, few benchplayers, now Nurkic. Very creative

    Suns @ Trail Blazers Tuesday game thread 12-19-2023

    No, it is not. He was one of the worst executives ever, while just being simply a clueless coach.

    Suns updates and discussion for the 2023-24 season

    I do think, it was given that Keon Johnson will be cut. He is very athletic, but that's it and this can be said about a lot of players outside of the NBA:

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    I love Durant, he is a great player but he is 34 soon and quite injury prone. Apart from Ayton, short contracts and all the available draft picks/swaps (the latters are quite risky in themselves as well) I wouldn't give up anything from our core. So no Cam Johnson and especially not Bridges. If...

    Yeah, but fortunately Boston would never make that offer.

    2021 NBA Draft Prospects Thread

    Excellent prospect. His release point is kind of low and probably that is what prohibits him from being a surefire 1st round pick (or even a lottery pick), but he is still #22 in espn's latest mock.

    NBA Trade Deadline Thread 2021

    Depends on the picks and its protections. I'm not really a Gordon-fan, but heavily protected late 1st rounders (even multiple ones) are no-brainers in an offer for Gordon.
  19. H

    Who could the Suns add to the roster that would help?

    No, because it would take 2 1st rounders to unload him, even on minimum contract.

    76ers @ Suns Saturday game thread 2-13-2021

    Yes, Thibodeau is far from an awful coach, but at the same time he doesn't seem a proper coach for a rebuilding team either. So I would happily take my chances on Towns under Monty. I basically would leave this team as it is, the Ayton + assets (problem is the Suns have only a few to move)...

    Bucks @ Suns Wednesday game thread 2-10-2021

    Complete waste is probably an exaggeration but his ability of showing no resistance in D vs. drives or post-ups and failing to score from lay-ups and open 3's drove me crazy. Somehow in January (even before putting him in the starting line-up) he got more effective and consistent and now with...

    2020-21 Around the NBA Thread

    UTA is a very good team but there is no way that they advance vs. the Lakers this season. The Nets represent an even smaller challenge. I think that their only real challenger is the CÍippers.

    CP3 vs Rubio

    That was more of a virtual 1st rounder, since it is top20 protected and if it doesn't convey in 2021, then it will become MIN 2021 2nd rounder. Since I don't really see that Warriors securing home-court advantage (that is more or less what is needed to aovid protection), the probable return for...

    CP3 vs Rubio

    I somewhat agree with both takes. Rubio was a good fit in Phoenix and he makes less sense in Minnesota. But even as a Sun, he was an average, maybe a slightly above average starter and no more.

    Suns Sign E'twaun Moore

    I never realized that Moore is much of a defender. He is a dangerous 3P-shooter and a solid microwave-scorer. Very good addition for the vet min. especially with a team option on the 2nd year.
