Rubio.

Rubio > Saric > Jerome > Johnson > Monty

Was close between Rubio and Saric but I went with Dario because I feel like I know what they will get from Ricky where as Saric is a bit more of a mystery. So that makes me more excited to see how he pans out. Plus I was smitten with Saric as a prospect to it's cool to see him on the suns.

Rubio easily. It's been such a long time since we've had a PG that would just make amazing passes and plays on a regular basis. They just make the game so much more fun to watch than the score first guys for me. Unless they can shoot like Curry.

Only Suns related thing that could excite me now would be $arver selling the team.

Just make an educated guess.

No Jevon Carter on this list? Ha, for you old-timers, he is a relentless, give up your body defender in the Ronnie Lee mold. He is going to be a fan fav off the bench. He won't be a starter or anything, but he will be quite entertaining. The Hustle Award is all but locked up.

I picked Monty. We've had such bad coaches who's rotations were so poor even a novice could see it. If he can coach well not only will the players be happy, but we'll win a lot more games as a result when comparing that scenario to say Igor, who was trash.

Rubio, i think his presence will help a lot with getting Booker and Ayton to the next step.

Excited to see how/if Bridges's work this summer pays off. Saric and Rubio ought to be really fun to watch, although I'm still nervous about Rubio's shooting.

Has to be Rubio. If he breaks right for us he could salvage the development of our young guys. I've been starved for real PG play since probably Dragic. Bledsoe's game never really appealed to me.

I wanted the Suns to draft Ty Jerome badly...and he is on the team now!

I know that he is not gonna play a lot at the start of the season, but I expect him to get the PG backup role after the All Star break.

Great passer and 3p shooter, smart and with a killer instinct...I can not wait to watch him on the court in Summer League.

I am really interested in watching Cam Johnson too. Hopefully he is more an all around player...I know he is a great shooter, but he needs to be much more than only that.

Rubio. I don't think he's ever reached his potential in the NBA, even if he never does just maintaining his level of play should help raise the level of play for the rest of the team considerably.

If Rubio can shoot 34% from three his game becomes quite lethal. All he has to do is shoot well enough to keep defenses honest.

Saric untapped potential intrigues me and think his versatility as a stretch playmaker on offense and ability to still be a little grimy on defense could be perfect next to Ayton. I expect something like 13 pts 6.5 rebounds and 3 assists on 52 , 38 , 80 splits.

Well, every other year (seasons starting in odd years) he has hovered around that....34%, 33.1%, 32.6%, 35.2%....so if he can bounce back from last year and get back to 2 years ago form, it will be huge. We can't have him down around 30%...same goes for Tyler Johnson.

Gotta be Rubio. I don't think he's individually exciting but I'm excited to see how the team looks with a great playmaker.

I picked Monty because if he's the legit coaching answer we've been looking for then we have the talent I think to get to .500 next year. We have good players on this team and if we actually can get them some good coaching then that's bigger then anything Rubio could do imo.

He was the 2nd option for me because i think he could have an even bigger effect on the team than Rubio. But I chose Rubio because I know what Rubio can do. We've seen what he can do for guys like Love, Kevin Martin, KAT, Wiggins, Lavine and to a slightly lesser extent, Mitchell. I kinda know what I'm getting from Rubio and what he can do to make life easier for Booker and Ayton.

But to me Monty is a bit of a question mark still. I like all the praise he gets from players he's worked with and even all the glowing reviews from players he's had short interactions with. But to me his actual coaching is still so-so to me. I think on this team he's probably the biggest x-factor.

I'm just excited to see a team full of pros, instead of the kiddy corps and geriatric Corp we have run out the past 5 years.

it will be nice to have quality players with high bbiq in their prime playing for the Suns for once.
