Gotta appreciate the development of Tyler's game here. Still firmly believe he will be optimized if Miami can get him off-ball more. But, it's nothing but a positive that he has continued developing playmaking chops and tightening that handle. Props to Tyler for answering the call in the face of a deficient roster (and a terrorist PG running mate).

Why they need to increase pace. Most of those plays have above 10 secs left on the clock. The team flows better when bodies are moving and quick decisions.

We’re about to add a top 5 offensive player to ever play the game and still don’t have anyone who can coach a competent offense. I guess the European coach really was a fake a report

Think he would've done great on a team like the Pacers, would just need to play more defense

been a problem since the big 3. Generating turnovers should be a bonus to the offense not a requirement of it.

Ya....KD isn't coming to the Heat. Suns have options and Heat aren't forcing the issue.

The thing is they don't have many more appealing options. The fact remains: the Heat are their only path to get out of paying 500 million dollars to miss the playoffs next year.

Pat Riley can’t lose this again. If he does he might as well just retire

He might as well retire regardless. He's 80 years old with literally nothing left to accomplish. On top of that, he gets trolled and ridiculed by fans nonstop at this point.

I don't think this Suns owner has reached the stage of caring about the luxury tax yet lol

He's still going through his delusional "I'm a genius billionaire that can turn anything to gold" phase.

This will be my cue to take the year off.

This front office has lost his marbles, If this happens they're beyond delusional - they're killing the organization and the fan base.

There's no defending this.

that honestly may not be a priority for them and again we should stop expecting shrewd financial decisions from a mongoloid like Ishbia.

Owner seems completely good with being gridlocked into Gobert's poisonous contract under the guise of "remaining competitive"

Who knows

https://www.yardbarker.com/nba/articles/big_problem_for_the_phoenix_suns_mat_ishbia_is_reportedly_out_of_money/s1_16751_42299491

The Phoenix Suns haven't had a lot go right for them lately, and there's more bad news coming now. The Athletic's Zach Harper revealed on the Basketball Illuminati podcast that the Suns' majority owner, Mat Ishbia, is struggling in terms of liquid cash.

"People have no idea what money is," Harper said. "... There were rumors within the last year that the Suns [ownership] might not have money. Ishbia might not have cash... There’s questions about his business [United Wholesale Mortgage] and how liquid it was."

Really good chance we lose Durant bc someone is going to budge and it won't be the senile old man. Gottaaccept that Riley & especially the Arison's have completely lost their fire to win.

If the most historic playoff series L against Cleveland won't make them budge on an extra pick or a JJJ, then nothing will.

Who cares about JJJ but an extra pick is a no-go. I don't know how yall get on this team for not making bad deals. Imagine if we were stuck with Dame right now
