For the Hornets not a big deal but it will be for playoff bound teams.

Coming right up
SHAZAM!

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

There's a LOT more to being a well rounded player than scoring. Scoring is glamorized for what it is, but it's the intangibles and completeness that's where it's at. Booker isn't there yet and his inability to close consistently and fall prey to bait laid for him in a collapsing double leading to a turnover are two huge difference makers.

Durant's also got the body dimensions Booker will unfortunately never have. Book has to jump 3 feet in the air to get shots over defenders consistently, Durant doesn't have to jump much.


It amazes me how many people still take SunsRBack4Good's sarcastic posts seriously. Especially if you post in game threads much.

But obviously, KD is like a top 15 player of all time. Booker is awesome but he probably doesn't crack top 100 yet. KD is on a level very few have ever reached. He plays at a level that makes just about any team a top 4 seed if he was able to play the whole season.

Didn't seem like bait, so I felt that the point was worth discussing. Perhaps I was mistaken and was willing to give more credit than due?

It's not bait. He just randomly makes crazy comments but you know it's not serious. Some are really excessive. I think it's just for fun. But he was obviously joking. He often makes those joke type posts and you see these long serious responses, though I know some probably don't pay close attention to the way he posts. And it's not all the time...but I feel it's pretty easy to notice when he does it.

Man it feels weird seeing KD in Suns jersey. It’s gonna take me a bit to get used to seeing that.

Okogie's back down to earth with his shooting but it might not matter with Durant and Booker

Bench looks better post trade too

Bad end to the quarter we were just up by 14 and now our lead was trimmed in half. Hope Lee is okay looks like he took an elbow to the face. Need to come out strong next quarter and push the lead back to double digit.

Man Jock is struggling as of late.

I rather have Dario back than this version of Jock
