This is what that new Suns owner wanted, big names like he about to have his own Miami Big Three.

And once again their team looks tired in 4th quarter.

I HOPE THEY PROVE ME WRONG.

I DONT WANT THE SUNS
TO ADVANCE.

THEYVE BEEN AN EMBARRASSMENT
TO BASKETBALL
BUT I THOUGHT THEY LUCKED
UP WITH THIS MATCHUP



:devil:
:evil:


I told you they don’t match up well. They’re too small and they can’t push the pace because they don’t have speed on the wings or athleticism at the guard spots outside of Beal who has an injured hand.

Should have signed pinder from Aussie this off szn , started over Sarr on the same team , currently on the Aussie national squad

Was on the Suns summer
League team , played for Arizona in kollege



Little under sized but would have provided them some athleticism and someone at the rim to grab some Boards and blocks some shots can hit the three as well, super athletic which helps him against larger
Bigs



If they don’t have any other draft picks they should give him a look in off szn

Game ended when Booker hooked Towns arms, then argued for a foul, then challenged it like it would show something else.

Clown shyt :smh:

This why I don't trust light skin nikkas who get red in the face :smh:

Booker spent the whole game face the color of Stephanie Ready cheeks :smh:

Anyone who says Booker "carried his team to the Finals" and not Chris Paul needs to be laughed at

Booker, Ayton, and Mikal Bridges all have done nothing of note since Chris Paul left the Suns

Not really. Celtics traded KG and Paul Pierce when they still had something in the tank, were able to get value for them

That's what the Warriors should do this off-season
it would be if the warriors could draft

that's the thing. they already had that chance a few years back. 3 straight lotto picks (2, 7, 14). none of them will be half as good as the duo of brown and tatum. like, the core of wiseman, kuminga, and moses moody got blown off the court in summer league. that core aint putting no fear in anyone's heart. league is too talented. Tatum was going toe-to-toe with Bron as a rookie. Guys like Shai, JDub, Chet are leading in OKC are leading the conference as rookies and 2nd year players. Luka been in MVP talks, making 1st team All-NBA at age 22. These guys are special

Kuminga crying about minutes on a 10 seed, and then getting outplayed by Keegan Murray and Keon Ellis. Moody can't seize a role. it's levels to this :manny:

IMO, I think Steph, Klay, and Draymond are clouding things for the franchise. Even the way they have drafted the past couple years felt like they are still trying to draft to fit around those 3 players, instead of drafting based on highest potential

And maybe the Warriors young players won't be underwhelming if those 3 were gone and the players was allowed to spread their wings

The drafting for the Celtics Big 3 before they got traded was sub par. It wasn't until they all left did the team start getting great quality young players

They're not. The FO drafted raw, unpolished guys with "high upside" in wiseman and kuminga. Wiseman is a clear bust and kuminga is just okay. neither are franchise cornerstones. Moody is okay as well but he won't be anything special at all. None of those guys are going to lead your team to the playoffs or even the play-in. and it has nothing to do with Steph, Klay, and Draymond. They're just not that good, especially at a time when the league is so talented

Kuminga isn't gonna be going head-to-head with Luka, or Wemby, or Shai, or AntMan, or Jokic, or Ja Morant in a few years. He's not special. And it's not about Steph and co. getting in their way (which is a hilarious thought by itself that a guy like Steph is in Kuminga's way)

Ok. I'm saying it sounds very similar to the Celtics situation. Once the Celtics got old, they were descending only making the playoffs and having 1st round exits. To say Warriors aren't drafting with Steph, Klay, and Draymond in mind is kind of hilarious. Of course they are. During the Big 3 Celtics run. (2007-2013), they only drafted 1 decent player, Avery Bradley. That's it

To rebuild and draft well, you have to literally draft with the mind of "I don't care if we miss the playoffs next year" mentality. Warriors aren't doing that
