    Suns Off-season Thread

    He was also fifth in the league in DRPM. Doesn’t mean he was one of the top five individual defenders in the league, just means he was that critical to our defense. He’s worth more to us than he would be to Brooklyn or anybody else we trade him to.

    If we give him a four-year extension, we can’t then trade him. So we have to wait and see how the KD situation works out before we extend him.

    His 13.6 PER last season was the second-highest of his career.

    The Ayton Plan

    They did some waive/stretches that will count against their salary cap, $2M each of the next two years.

    If this is the roster where do we stand?

    Ish is listed at 6’6”, 250 lbs. Jae is listed at 6’6”, 234 lbs.

    I can almost guarantee that, since the package you’re describing is the best we can possibly offer. (Book and DA are legally untradeable.) The fact that the Nets are still talking to us means they think we might offer more than we have so far. If we’d already offered everything we can legally...

    Monty Williams Agrees to a Long Term Contract Extension

    Dr. Evil in the first Austin Powers film. How did you know it was from the 90’s? Edit: Wait a second… isn’t “throw me a fricken bone here” also from AP?

    The Durant Sweepstakes

    Try to imagine that the Suns get KD for late picks and filler, and you’re in Nets PR trying to sell fans on the new season. Ugh. What do you even say? At least if you get Bridges it’s something. A young player, DPOY runner up, possibly marginal All-Star potential, on a team-friendly contract...

    I've been hiding this analogy for weeks.

    Stockton has got to be #2, if not #1. 15,806 career assists. 3265 steals. Simply unparalleled.

    Dallas @ Suns Game 1 (R2) Monday 5-2-2022, 7 PM

    Even if Ayton blossoms, he’ll never be anything like Jokic. Which is OK. Jokic is far and away the best player in the league right now.

    best overall Suns coach (probably), and best coaches by specialty

    Not entirely Ainge’s fault. It was either rotate or concede a layup to Grant. Elie was Ainge’s man. Don’t recall whether it was Ainge’s fault for leaving him open or it was another situation where he was forced to.

    Dallas @ Suns Game 1 (R2) Monday 5-2-2022, 7 PM

    You’re comparing Ayton offensively to a guy who averaged 7.3 apg at the same age?

    And JV is averaging a mere 13 removing the 25 rebound game. :?

    Adjustments for game 5 should be?

    And after the game, complain about the free throw disparity.

    Coach W, please channel the spirit of Cotton Fitzsimmons.

    That was during the Westphal Era.

    That’s a good idea. Somebody should suggest it to them.

    one of this season's biggest mysteries is Aaron Holiday

    Ayton: 11-14 Rest of starters: 13-38 McGee: 7-7 Rest of non-garbage-time bench: 8-20

    The problem isn’t that he had them killed. Killing livestock to control a disease outbreak is, unfortunately, sometimes necessary. The problem is how he had them killed. Economical, but extremely cruel. Also, the poor conditions in which the birds were kept helped lead to the outbreak in the...

    We’ve won nine in a row against the Mavs. I’m pretty confident in that series, even if we start it without Book.

    Booker may be “worthy,” but there are at least three guys who are even more worthy, and Jokic is the worthiest.

    The 2022 NBA Play-In Tournament + Playoffs Thread

    Jokic was 7th in the league in total +/- behind Jayson Tatum, Mikal Bridges, Stephen Curry, Devin Booker, Chris Paul, and Jaylen Brown. The six ahead of him obviously had the advantage of playing on much better teams. To put up a +444 with as little help as he had is just incredible. It’s no...

    The Ayton Plan

    A legitimate argument that he is better than Jokic and Embiid?
