Re: KD to the Suns
Buds system, and having PG's, seem to be leading to less turnovers for KD.
He looks really good so far. Scary

KD with his feet set on those catch and shoot 3s is lethal. Im not sure the 49 points in a game 7 carry the team on his back KD still exists but KD in his current capacity in our system is highly effective.
This just means for us to be a true title contender 1) Book needs to take the next step up to true superstardom 2) we need an upgrade at the 5. I feel everything else is in place

Re: KD to the Suns
If KD is out two weeks, that puts his return around November 26th against the Lakers. Until then, the Suns schedule is...
Kings
@ Jazz
@ Kings (back-to-back)
@ OKC
@ Wolves
Magic (back-to-back)
Knicks
Lakers (6 day break between Knicks and Lakers).

Respect to LeBron, he works a ton on his body and spends like $1.5 million annually on his body to avoid injuries like this even despite being like 4 yrs older and having played way tf more mins in his career.

Not ready to blame Bud yet but those almost 40mpg KD's averaging probably wasn't helping

Re: KD to the Suns
Odd being there was no indication of injury during the game. Young players like Zion, Ja are out, Luka apparently is hurt too, so it's part of the game. Tough schedule ahead. I guess we'll see if the rest of Big 3 is worth the money. Ryan for ROY(ROYan).

Re: KD to the Suns
Was concerned that we were overplaying him.
Need to let him rest and fully heal. Healthy KD is the key to all our aspirations.
More burn for Dunn and maybe Bol Bol and Oso now. But I think come December, we'll be dangling Grayson + 2031 for one final piece.
Know everyone wants an upgrade on Nurk, but realistically there's no center trade out there with our 2nd apron restrictions that'll actually help us.

Re: KD to the Suns
A comeback for November 26th against Lakers would be nice.
A full week of rest and treatments and then 10 days to ramping up his physical condition.

2 weeks is 7 games (return vs Lakers)
3 weeks is 9 games (return vs GSW)

Injuries are part of the game. Team has to step up and is capable of.

Yup…. And it IS Bud you blame. Near 40 minutes a night was unsustainable. Greedy on both parts. At least Badley Heal is back for now
