After 50 years of existence, the Suns are finally picking #1. Thankfully, they know how to tank. Finished 3-27 their last 30 games.

Devin Booker — 21
Josh Jackson — 21
DeAndre Ayton — 19

That’s one hell of a trio. Phoenix will soon become the Celtics or Sixers in the West. They just hired a young smart coach in Igor Kokoskov and have a good amount of money to spend. I know it’s an 8:30/9:30 tip in Chicago, but check the Suns out on League Pass once in a while next season.

Wonder if something going behind the scenes that we don't know about, especially to do it a week before the season too

Owner is nuts, but the GM did make some horrible moves. Ryan Anderson, bad move. Trading away your unprotected FRP in 2021 (the year the one and done rule is supposed to go away) = REAL BAD.

Bridges trade and Ariza signing also questionable.

All great points. The timing of this is just stupid though. Why did they let him have another draft and a summer of free agency? They should have just shit-canned the guy at the end of last season.

the draft was a no brainer since they were picking #1 and Ayton was the easy choice. But, I agree, the timing is odd. Why let him make any moves in free agency if you are thinking of firing him?


One argument is that this is the perfect time since he has lots of time to figure things out before trade deadline and next year's draft.

Ugly win last night but it was a win. Big game tomorrow. Bulls visit the desert. For the people who stay up and watch this, obviously Booker and Ayton will be fun to watch, but check out Kelly Oubre. The Wizards front office did some dumb shit this season.

Don't think this move gets them "closer to a championship"

Defies logic. Though it is Phoenix we're talking about.

He put up 75 in a Chinese League game once.

Then again, Marbury dominated the chinese league at the age of 75.
