Malemansam | Spurs

I can’t believe he hasn’t been better so far, he wasn’t bad with us, like seriously. I figured he’d be put into the starting line up for the game but only 9mins of the bench is shocking.

datboijustin | Suns

I think CP3 is just not a scoring threat anymore so he’s only as good as the players he’s playing with. If he was out there with Wemby and Castle etc he’d look a lot better.

He’d be incredible as a coach lol what. It’s clear by your comments in here that you’re just a hater. Really nothing you said is accurate. JJ said he’s one of the best teammates he ever had and they’re still friends. He was basically the coach of the Suns when they made their finals run. Booker and SGA speak very highly of him. We know he could be a bit of an ass on the court because he was so competitive, but there’d be a big difference between 40+ yo coach CP3 and 26yo CP3 trying to win a trophy.

dlhunter | Suns

DeadSira | Suns

31 | 2 days ago

The double team criticism came when the meme came out right? He had CP3 back then right after that which relegated him off ball, but guys like Mikal Bridges, Ayton couldn’t really create. He became good at handling double teams during this time.

Then the KD-Beal team was weird as fuck on offense for whatever reason. Just so stagnant, but I don’t think Book being susceptible to double teams was the cause of that.

JimmyToucan | Suns

11 | 2 days ago

Bridges went through a dark period of pure ass when Booker had a hammy injury in 2022-2023, and made it out of it with a decent self creating leap, just in time to be traded for KD lol. Seeing him and Wemby go band for band on Christmas is the epitome of what he can do now if asked to, initially started by that rough trial by fire, induced from the injury bug we went through

First year with KD and Beal was Vogel holding the defense down as best he could and praying 3 scorers could improvise well together, last year Bud didn’t have shit for the offense or defense

Is it? I thought the only major players that left were KD and Beal. Which of course are important players, but it’s not like 70% of your roster is gone.

Most of the lineups played by the Suns up until today are made up of players that were in Phoenix last year as well.

agentdoubleohio | Suns

Brooks. Green, Goodwin, Williams, I’d add Gillespie because he didn’t get added until the end of the year. And not new, but Allen and Royce missed a lot of games because they were hurt so much last year. But adding 4.5 players to the rooster is pretty big difference.

andy3172 | Clippers

108 | 2 days ago

This is hands down the worst, most uninspiring Clippers team I’ve watched since I started watching in 2010-11. I was there for the Big 3 era. I’ve seen the Tobias Harris days, the Gallinari days, the Trez and Lou Will show… All of em had some level of heart and grit. This team just… Doesn’t. I know the FO or Steve Ballmer doesn’t have the guts to do it, but we should be blowing it up and starting the rebuild now.

First things first, remove Ty Lue. Next, remove Lawrence Frank. Frank has had long enough and, unfortunately, he still can’t draft young NBA prospects. I don’t know if that’s necessarily his call or if that’s more on our scouting team, but whoever it is, they need to go.

Get a FRP for Kawhi and a half-decent rookie who can get minutes. Trade Beal for whatever the fuck he’s worth. Trade Harden for picks or some young players. I think Bogi can get a couple of 2RP’s. Zubac is probably our biggest trade chip behind Harden. We have some means to get some draft value back.

Even though we don’t have our own FRP’s, that doesn’t mean we should live with playing mid-tier basketball for the next 5-7 years. It’s only the beginning of the season and I think we can all tell that this team isn’t going to make any real noise in the next year or two.

Imagine telling you in ~‘15 that you’d have Harden, Kawhi and CP3 on your team with the intention of winning a championship, any fan of any team would’ve been giddy as hell to have that core.

But this is worse than Hakeem, Barkley and Pippen or KG, Pierce and Williams; at least from a fan perspective. Those guys had some spunk to their personalities which translated to their games and they seemed to care, just too old/injured to compete. Harden and Kawhi are such dour performers at times, they don’t have that inspiring gene or leadership personalities that a team can rally behind.

At least with that late ‘90s Rockets we had some good banter with Pippen and Barkley, half the time you watched to see if they’d argue on court with each other.

Idk. I got off topic; it just sucks to watch the Clippers right now if the start of the season is going to be indicative of what’s to come.

Ok_Possible_5702

I don’t think that Kawhi, under investigation, with availability issues and still owed 50m/y for the next 2 seasons, is getting you a FRP. Teams know that re-signing him would be a challenge given Uncle Dennis requests. You’re not getting meaningful draft equity unless you take on an equally bad contract.

Beal is on a near-minimum. I don’t think you can get much from him… maybe a flier on a rookie-contract that disappointed so far?

Bogdanovic looks washed and he is owed 16m/y for this year, with a team option next year for the same. He’s basically an expiring contract, and currently overpaid. Again, you’re not getting draft equity unless you take a worse contract in return.

Harden and Zubac are valuable trade assets.
Plenty of teams could use James: aside from the Rockets (which imho can’t trade for him because FVV cannot be traded, and every other way of matching salaries depletes their young depth), the Magic could use an offensive organizer.

Zubac is on a really good contract for his production. You should be able to get one FRP for him - just not clear which team has a need at center right now. Maybe the Kings if they trade Sabonis.

a_moniker | Hornets

1 | a day ago

Only way Kawhi would get a first is if you traded him for an even worse contract, and it’s really hard to find one that bad. Basically the only option would be Kawhi to the 76ers for PG lol

Plenty of teams could use James: aside from the Rockets (which imho can’t trade for him because FVV cannot be traded, and every other way of matching salaries depletes their young depth), the Magic could use an offensive organizer.

Why do you think FVV can’t be traded? He has an implied NTC, but that just means he’d have to accept a trade. NBA players have repeatedly shown they love living in LA, so I don’t think it’s implausible that he’d accept that deal. It’s not like he’s gonna be able to play for Houston this season anyway.

Center and Point Guard are the two biggest needs in the league right now, so I could see a bunch of teams being interested in Zubac:

Timberwolves could use Zubac. If they did a deal centered around Naz Reid for Zubac, then that’d let an aging Gobert come off the bench. Issue is they don’t have picks to trade, only players.
Pacers and Celtics both desperately need a Center, but they’d probably prefer to do a deal after the Season ends
Lakers should definitely be open to adding Zubac right now. He’d be a huge step up from Ayton, and is a long-term answer to their Center issue.
Pelicans also need a starting Center, and are already committed to “competing” this season

I don’t see why FVV with an implied NTC would accept a trade. He clearly fits well in Houston, is liked by the organization… why would he start new elsewhere?

The Wolves have 2 starting-quality players who can play the 5. They are not trading Reid for Zubac because that fucks up their spacing.

I agree that Zubac > Ayton, but with Ayton on an 8m/y deal and the Austin Reaves extension incoming, I don’t think the Lakers feel like they need to spend money at the center position. They will have to invest in the forward spots.

Pelicans… I’m not even commenting. They’re trash anyway, why would they trade for Zubac? They signed Looney as a FA.

The only option I can kinda see would be the 76ers moving PG + Protected Pick for Kawhi, just so that they could get off an even worse contract.

I find it interesting that the moment things go south, the first thing fans want to do is, always, fire the coach.

Even legendary coaches like Ty Lue who carried the Clippers through thick and thin are not immune to this apparently.

Dude is gonna be beloved here while we rebuild. Suns haven’t had an athlete as explosive and high flying as him in a while. Booker can score from everywhere obviously, but he’s never been an above the rim player like Jalen who can jump out of the gym

The fit is also very good for Green. The movement and spacing are going to let him play to his strengths. He has never had a backcourt partner nearly as good as Booker.

I really want to see what he can do with you guys because that’s going to tell us a lot about my Rockets. We play 90’s ball. Slow paced, poor spacing, not a lot of ball movement. Some players are going to struggle in that environment.

Slow paced, poor spacing, not a lot of ball movement. Some players are going to struggle in that environment.

This is exactly how I’d describe the Suns’ offense in 2023-25 as well, fwiw.

I think that’s just how KD works nowadays.

1gnominious | Rockets

We were like that before KD so that’s why he fits us pretty well. Unless we can hit a cutter then KD ISOs are better than whatever else we were going to do.

Suns fans/media were so aggressively negative about getting Green.

He’s not a bad NBA player.. take over a series and beat the Curry led Warriors? Maybe not but that’s a huge thing to ask. Just because you can’t do that doesn’t mean you’re some awful player.

bigtice | Rockets

15 | 2 days ago

Those people are delusional and don’t realize how young he is or how good he can be, the only problem was that he was inconsistent.

He should thrive there in a lower pressure situation and not being expected to be the best player on the team while he continues to improve.

Idk what you all see from these old dudes and yes, kawhi and Harden are out but even when they are playing they got held to 70+ pts by another old squad and needed a buzzer beater game winner to beat the pels.

Half their rotation is old and washed

I get that they lost powell but they did acquire John Collins and have more depth on paper than last year.

Like I said, I hope I’m wrong but a veteran team having a slow start to the season is not news to me anymore.

If they’re still under .500 come January, that’ll be when things start to get interesting.

The Phoenix Suns (4-5) hold the cards against the Los Angeles Clippers (3-5), 115-102 as Jalen Green dawns with 29pts and a +30 +/-
