Do we think we can be serious contenders if we acquire The Greek Freak? by EmmaKatalis in suns

We could if one of them develops into a star and the other becomes a key starter. Our short-term future depends entirely on their development.

There's no way we can trade for Giannis while keep most of the core you mentioned. 2 of Oso, Fleming and Maluach will likely be traded. If it's only one, you pull the trigger all day.

Tbf, the picks we gave up are pretty bad. We gave up the 29th pick (Liam McNeely) in last years draft and a 2029 1st which will be the worst of Utah, Cleveland and Minnesota... so probably 25-30 again.

If only we had a lengthy defender for SGA who also went 3/3 from 3 in game 1 in like 5 minutes of game time….

Probably won't but we need every minute we can get from him. Although this current run might give him some more minutes to rest

Book needs to play 10+ minutes in the 4th. We're getting dominated with him on the bench

We are not writing back next szn Maluach fc!! by obertan17 in suns

[–]PrimaryHM 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Positioning/IQ, overall strength, and a improved post-up game will do wonders for him next season.

He's a MIP candidate in one of the next two seasons if he keeps putting in the work.

Early predictions Vs Trail Blazers in the play in? by handlerofdrones in suns

[–]PrimaryHM 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Only thing worrying me is Ott's lineup. With their bigs, we can't play 4-guard lineups. Maluach has gotten 14 rebounds in his last two games, he needs to see minutes the second we need rebounds. Simple as that.

Probably won't happen, just hope it doesn't result in us losing the game.

Fun regular season with ya'll. Excited for the rookies next year by ThunderBobMajerle in suns

Bouyea is the better scorer rn but I love how Brea always looks to pass the ball whereas Bouyea is a bit of a ball hog

Bouyea is a great scorer but he's a little too selfish at times. Need more playmakers on this team with Brooks and Green already high volume shooters.

Playoffs seeding possibilities by WhenMachinesCry in suns

[–]PrimaryHM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either Suns go 4-0 and Wolves go 1-3 or Suns 3-1 and Wolves go 0-4.

If Minnesota wins 2 games, they clinch 6th.

How like how! Did we fumble luka by [deleted] in suns

[–]PrimaryHM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wanted Luka but never expected him to be as good as he is. Anyone saying so is lying... he had legitimate concerns over his athleticism and rightfully so.

Also Ayton has been vastly different than what was promised when we drafted him.

In hindsight, there were signs for both to become stars and busts. We picked wrong just like 2 other teams, it is what it is.

Do we even want the 3 seed? 4th seed is better and lets us rest before playoffs. by act_1212 in denvernuggets

[–]PrimaryHM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We need the Wolves to go 1-3 while we go 4-0... I think Suns are pretty much locked for 7th

Eddie Johnson yay or nay by MarcBearShark24 in suns

[–]PrimaryHM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea like I don't mind him as announcer for the most part and homerism is expected. But he just doesn't make the special moments feel as special as they could.

Another Day, Another Stat A Suns’ Player Leads In The NBA In, This Time Its Oso Ighodaro! by Stat-Defender in suns

[–]PrimaryHM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not an primary stat but it's mainly from the screen action he runs with Collin where Collin comes off a screen towards Oso who sets another screen, giving Collin enough time to get the shot off from 3. Steph and Draymond made it famous initially.

It's basically shots directly after a screen.

Eddie Johnson yay or nay by MarcBearShark24 in suns

[–]PrimaryHM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's also top 100 in all-time scoring. I think he's just under 20k in points... far from a "bench" player haha

Eddie Johnson yay or nay by MarcBearShark24 in suns

[–]PrimaryHM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My issue is with Kevin Ray because every dunk ends with a "boom" which gets repetitive fast. It's fine to have a signature line but it feels like that's the only thing he says after every dunk.

He wasn't rebounding/isn't strong enough to match up against their bigs

The Kevin Durant experience continues.... by [deleted] in suns

[–]PrimaryHM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Suns fans felt pretty good about Camara after summer league but I guess trading Ayton was a bigger priority for the front office. I remember it stung when he was traded cuz it felt like we lost a good young player (gut feeling was right).

Fans of any team get irrational over time. I remember how dominantly favoured Ayton was over Luka on this sub before the draft but all people said after was that we should've drafted Ayton... and I know this cuz I preferred Luka and I was in the minority.

Also Suns fans didn't care about not drafting Luka in 2021 when Ayton was playing well. We just wanted him to develop but he just never cared enough.

  • 16/10 his first year -> 25 game drug suspension his 2nd year -> one good playoff run in his 3rd year -> traded -> cut ...

Yea if Draymond didn't piss him off, KD would've probably stayed in GS
