This was my first time watching Jordan Goodwin.That man is a cotdamn menace on defense.Already one of the best defensive players to ever wear a Suns uniform:hubie:
Breh was balling his ass off in DC last year. I’m happy he’s in a situation where he can play for a contender

Goody is a dog. He worked his way up from undrafted to GLeague to the rotation last year. Wes Unseld Jr. couldn’t keep him on the bench when injuries hit last year.

I will say regarding OKC, I am really interested to see how they consolidate all these picks. Stockpiling is cool and all but it reaches a point where you have more draft picks than available roster spots
They literally can acquire 3 all stars to be instant contenders, still have a young roster to build with and still have double digit picks on deck for future use.

They're gonna be offering deals with like 6 future draft picks without blinking an eye.

It's crazy

If that's the case who do you trade for?

Lowry is like the only player that would fit, but I see Miami using him as a filler for another trade.

At some point, they'll probably have to move CJ for something (unless they have a great season). But of course the issue is are you going to get anything of value for him that addresses a need? idk.

Right now they're like PHX in that one of their 3 best scorers needs to be the point but they're not collectively as explosive. Zion is the most adaptable as he can involve others on-ball and be involved off ball as a screener/roller for a pg. Ingram is an iso scorer who drifts when he doesn't have the ball. So adding a traditional pg is just gonna result in CJ being an undersized, overpaid spot-up shooter at the 2 guard spot.

If they have a shyt season but Zion is actually healthy/plays great, then it comes down to could you package Ingram as a centerpiece for a blockbuster trade, and will there be a disgrunstled star available? Basically i feel this will be a big season for NOP will all the question marks.
