The Suns better get some talent!!! If they don't get an extra pick or sign a big name (young) player to play the two or three...I am not watching one game next season....Why? No talent. I like watching people better than me perform!

Dallas Mavericks are already shopping No. 24 pick, sources say. Very open to trading it, I'm told

I doubt it, since Fab has Melo as his last name, and Anthony has Melo as part of his first name, but I guess it's possible that they are extreme distant cousins.

But that's about as far as comparisons go and maybe the passing. Nash comparisons are still an extreme case. Not that mine or your opinion matter in the grand scheme of things, so I guess we can just agree to disagree.

The highlight of my morning thus far. Gave me a good chuckle.


That's all I'm doing. Comparing them 30 minutes after getting drafted. The fan reaction is identical.

How is that possible if we only have the 13th pick in the draft?

Watch OKC take him and make the next Lamar Odom out of him.

Dude stop, we all know our front office aint going to do anything but try to convince us that Brooks, Dudly, Childress, Frye, and Gortat could make the playoffs and we should support them.

Cunningham is a good pick, good athlete he can jump out of the gym. I also remember he willed the Beavers to a win against Zona a couple of years ago. He was impressive.

That lineup scares me and I'm not looking forward to next season. :x

I really feel like since this FO has been in office, they've been the butt of a lot of jokes around GM circles. Seems like we're content with taking scraps and justifying it rather than taking another step to make us better

Paul Coro ‏@paulcoro

Hey, 24 picks later & Arnett Moultrie is still on the board. You'd think the #Suns are chasing a pick for a PF who they considered at 13.

It has been clear the last two years that the Suns are now in it to make money. There is no sign that we will be contenders in the next few years.

I agree and thought he was going to be a steal in the 2nd round. Good to see a team step up and take him in the 1st. He has some good defense and also plays a bit at the point.

I would rather have PJ3 than Moultrie! We already have enough PFs!!
