perfect. that's the only thing Booker is good for. Marketing bad products that are bad for your heart, like the clown. For McDonalds, the only healthy part is the pickle. For Book shoes, this is the first review that came up for the denim version of those $150 pieces of blue plastic:

Book 2 Denim shoes are too painful to wear. How this shoe got past Nike's product quality testing, as well as Nike's selling price, is shameful.

you should get the striped socks to complete the look

on Booker changing his jersey from 1 to 15
good move. since he isn't even #1 on his own team anymore.
but at least he's getting closer to his value in this league

his jersey # should 25

by mid-season, fans should get ahead of the jersey prices and buy Booker 30

next season he'll be endorsing Crocs instead of Nike

at least that's a shoe print i like. now we just need him to act like a tiger on the court instead of a pussycat. But i'm afraid the 15 that goes with the outfit represents how many minutes of value we get from him per game

the reason my Grayson and Royce trade analysis belongs in this thread, is because, as usual over the past 11 years, the move is primarily Booker's fault. Yes, the curse is alive and ongoing.

both Allen and O'neal were a core in what was best about the Suns last season. We're losing our best 3 point shooting and clutch performers who also were a part of the core of our best team defense -- most evident in the first part of last season -- when we were winning and much higher in defensive rating. Grayson was even taking control late in games. He's smart. Something we don't have enough of.

why? again. because, of Booker. Every coaching and personnel move must consider and accommodate for his bloated salary and the maintenance of his glorified position as the face of the phoenix suns. our poster child.

it was Brooks who redefined our team personality last season, and Grayson and Royce were part of that. The re-adjustment back to Booker ball in the second half of the season was our undoing.
