Suns 2024-2025 Season Discussions

[Mainstreet]

You can't argue with the fact that Dunn and Oso have made progress. That's all I am saying. You can critique him about a many things. I agree with the rotations thing but he does get credit for how the young guys are playing even if it took him some time to get there.

I'm not sure Bud should get all the credit for developing the young players. There are assistant coaches as well.

Also, Oso and Gillespie have played in the G-League.

If Bud had so much confidence in the young players, he should have been playing them earlier. I'm not sure if injuries and losing hasn't forced his hand.

"and bronny." LOL

 

[Yuma]

That's the way it looks here, but others say Bud is great at developing talent.

I haven't been excited about Bud's rotations this season.

I heard it is specifically NBA journeymen to make the next level. Not rookies.

I am not saying that either. Although Bud put these coaches together and he provides them direction. To me the confidence issue is another topic.

He's helped create journeymen. Dennis Schroeder, Mike Muscala, and Taurean Prince all came up under Budenholzer in Atlanta, starting as rookies. John Collins also. A scary name, Damien Lee. In Milwaukee, Donte DiVencenzo was the only rookie of note. He went a year where he got no rookies. In Milwaukee though he helped turn younger players into more than they were like Giannis, Middleton, Portis, etc.

I have for the last four games. I hope he keeps it up as veterans return from injury.

Rejoice @Mainstreet !

I want to see the announcement and the terms of the contract before I get carried away.

 

[Yuma]

I am wondering who gets cut?

Micic

 

[Yuma]

Micic

Agreed. His contract is not guaranteed for next season. He totally has not shown anything here.

 

[Chaplin]

Agreed. His contract is not guaranteed for next season. He totally has not shown anything here.

He wants to go back to Europe anyway, and he can almost certainly make a lot more money too. To his credit, he's honoring his NBA contract.

 

[BirdGangThing]

damn that was a team win
