Hopefully grant can continue improving and work on his 3 pointer in the off-season maybe we wont have to overpay for a point guard.

Good game guys, thanks for beating us!
What do you all think of Booker? Franchise player for the Suns?
Klay Thompson/Brandon Roy/JJ Reddick/Gordon Hayward, we've heard comparisons for those, who's game does he closely resemble?

BTW, glad to see RoLo playing well for ya. I was one of very few Suns fans that didn't hate on Lopez. He was just very very inconsistent, but I liked him next to Amare (RIP).

he's got some h20 in him. he's gonna be great.

i don't think you can ever tell if someone is gonna be a true franchise player this early though.

really like booker. I think he is a future 20ppg player. He reminds of allan houston because he seems really fundamentally sound.

It's hard to compare him because he's such a deadeye shooter AND a great slasher.

He really has a ton of foot speed.

I think potentially he is a franchise player, he's just a monster.

I really enjoy watching him jaw back and forth with opposing team players. I think the first I heard of him doing it was in the beginning of the year with Jimmy Butler. At first, I didn't believe it and though Jimmy was just making stuff up, but man, lately he's just been talking trash with everyone. I like it as it exudes confidence and desire to win.
He hasn't been so deadeye lately as most teams gameplan against him since there is nobody else really on the Suns who can score/create. But his jumper is just so pure, and it has to be one of the top 5 shooting mechanics I've seen.
