Damn, I missed the press conference. Anyone know if I can find it on Suns.com (or elsewhere) to watch in its entirety? I'm sure if it's not up now, it'll be up later.

I really love Isaiah Thomas' attitude. I'm so excited for this season to start.

Since they never did anything about Kevin Love's blunder, I doubt they will here either.

Lon: "That's off the record."

LOL. if the attorney isn't worried then neither should we be

What is wrong with saying this? Can't a GM say they want to trade for a player?

i dunno. i assumed from Babby's interjection that it could be perceived as violating some tampering rule. but i dunno.

Good to have the Morris bros longterm.

I'm kind of shocked how much Marcus got though.
We all know Tucker is going to see play time.
With the addition to all these pgs green would see some SF as well.
And I really thought warren would maybe pass marcus in rotation.

Talking about a guy making 5mil just getting DNPs lol I think it's possible

You can watch it now just rewind the video player to the 12 minute mark.

LOL @ the haters who think that Dragic is going anywhere else.

Suns might as well have added him to the press conference as extended.

What are you talking about?

Marcus played 82 games last year and averaged about 10ppg in 22 min. He shot well and he is improving. He has signed a 4 year contract for less than the mid-level exception. This is an absolute bargain.

Earl Barron there.... training camp invite.... but seems weird to interview him at media day.

"Earl, so are you looking forward to your week and a half with the Suns before they waive you?"

I have a feeling this year is going to be really special. Maybe not NBA finals special, but 'competing for the division' special. Something about this group of guys. Young, developing, happy, chemistry.
LAC and GSW hasn't done much to improve while we have. Losing Frye will hurt but I forsee big things.

Randolph has to be stoked his contract was picked up. Guess that's part of keeping the chemistry going.

Poor G Green, he's saying all the right things and played his heart out last year but he's probably out the way out the door

My baseball team is out of the playoffs and my football team sucks. Need something positive to go on.
Good to hear Len has been playing pickup games.
Forgot about IT but glad his wrist is coming along.

Welcome to my world (baseball team--Orioles are normally where your Yankees are...with about 20 less wins. At least your team is good more often than not.)

Now as Football goes, the Saints didn't just lose to arguably the worst team in the NFL...AT HOME, mind you...so yeah, I'm with you on the Football front as well.

Let's GO SUNS!!!

HA! I hear ya.
I'm more upset about the Saints because of high expectations. Fortunately despite being 1-3 there's still a chance at the division being 1 back. Hard to believe the team is capable of anything more than a lucky playoff appearance.

I am pulling for your O's though. I want them and KC in the ALCS and will pull for you if your team makes the World Series.

OK back on topic

Thanks for the support! And I wouldn't worry too much about the Saints. Their division isn't all that foreboding. The Saints w/Brees (and Payton) will pull you through...as for the Steelers, their sunk, IMO.

But who cares, we got the Morii for a STEAL of a bargain. This is absolutely awesome. Wasn't expecting this at all. Unless Markieff regresses, I don't see how this isn't a bargain basement deal for Kieff. At worst, we paid $8M per for a perennial 6th Man Award contender-level PF.

I agree with you. The last time I felt like this before the season began was back in 2010. You can tell when the team is ready.
