When I saw the video, I thought of Chris Nolan saying to Christian Bale when he came bulked up to pre shorts of Batman Begins after beeing skinned down for his former movie The Mechanic:

Chris, we're shooting Batman, not Fatman! ;-)

He's always looked pretty broad to me and built like a fridge. Far cry from typical skinny guards. But he's also playing alongside pretty big dudes normally so his size doesn't really jump out like he does in these clips where he's mostly by himself or standing next to a normal sized human being

I'm a bit concerned about Grayson's extra weight gain. His body isn't used to carrying that much extra weight, so I'm wondering how durable he will be throughout the season. Hopefully he won't be playing extended minutes, but still... the Suns need to be at full capacity come April.

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

That was pretty close to the Chapman shot but Chapman had to more catch it with his back to the basket and jump and turn around in the air.

What's interesting is for those of us playing fantasy, Grayson is 5th round value and O'Neale 7th round. Pretty good. What's even more amazing is the Suns are the only team with 8 players holding 8 round value or better. Most teams only have 2-3 and some have 4. Oso and Nigel flirting at 30 round value which is really sad.

Grayson's just been phenomenal this season. What I've noticed is he's way more decisive and seems to have the green light and freedom to just make plays that didn't seem to be there the last couple of seasons. Whether it's a one dribble heater 3, or just attacking the hard close outs to get to the rim (and finishing), he's looks excellent this season. Just seemed like he's been kept in a cage the last couple of seasons and only allowed to stretch the floor and pass it to one of the Big 3. This season he's making decisions, he's been way more aggressive, he's become a lowkey good playmaker with his smart passing (career high in assist) and he's also just firing 3's at will which is what he should be doing as the best shooter on the team.
