Jazz doing what they are doing is blowing my mind. I don't care if it is just for today, #1 in the west is impressive as hell. Danny Ainge gotta be losing his fukking mind because he was clearly trying to tank this season away.

This is their most successful era besides the early 90s with Chuck. Jones has turned them from a joke to a title contender

His roster management sucks. He spent too much time trying to get Kevin Durant instead of improving the bench.

He doesn't even take the draft seriously. He botched the 2020 draft by passing on Tyrese Haliburton and trading Jalen Smith.

The Landry Shamet deal is atrocious and the Suns gave up their 1st rounder in 2021 to get him. They could have used that pick to draft a young PG to learn from CP3.

The bench this year sucks for the Suns and the starters will probably be injured often due to the high amount of minutes they have to play each night.

Plus last night when CP3 went down (again), the team looked very bad.

I will say James is better than the previous GM Ryan McDonough. My main issue with him (and Monty to an extent) is they don't seem to want to develop young talent. Which is dumb because the Suns can still compete while also having young cost controlled talent.
