Not a big deal... it's quicker than quoting the message and it works at some other Forums.
I'll stick to the "quote message" function, then.

No, but his name really is Ryan I went to Horizon high school with him. Unless it's a different poster otherwise he can confirm. Hehe


Nah, bro. Though I did take a PE class during a summer there once, many years ago.

Actually, not really. I am actually our team's beloved former GM, Ryan McDonough. And I'm here to tell you that Marquese Chriss and Josh Jackson are gonna pan out, just like nbadraft.net said they would. Not that I used them to make my draft picks or anything. If I'd had more time, you'd see. You'll all see...

Couldn’t catch the game, but i’m really glad to have seen the team win again. Feels like even the most stubborn NBA fans are starting to see him in the same light that we’ve done in the last 5 years

This might be obvious, and i'm sure its already been said...

but maybe the biggest benefit of this run and associated notoriety is making phoenix an attractive place to come for free agents this off-season.

Booker has 90 30+ point games so far in 5 seasons. If he hits another 90 his next 5 years and 90 more near his 15th season, he'll be around 270 pretty close to 300. Look at the list below, Book can finish in the top 20 of all time with all said and done. :o

Most 30 point games all time.
Rk Player Count
1 Michael Jordan* 671
2 Wilt Chamberlain* 557
3 LeBron James 555
4 Kobe Bryant 519
5 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar* 504
6 Karl Malone* 489
7 Jerry West* 424
8 Oscar Robertson* 410
9 Elgin Baylor* 403
10 Allen Iverson* 381

I could see Booker average 30 points per game for a season or two. Honestly, he could get 40 games per season for the next 5 years or 200 total. He's a professional scorer.

And he really does do it so effortlessly too! It's like he's a kid on the playground, Playing against much younger, inexperienced children. He just makes it look easy!

Pretty remarkable to have a special player like Booker on this team. In our 52 year franchise history l, we've never had such a lethal scorer like Devin Booker. I was always jealous how other teams drafted Jordan, Kobe, Shaq, Wilt, Kareem, Hakeem, Lebron, Elgin, and few others that completely dominate the game but never Phoenix. Yeah, we've had Barkley but not for many years..

That can come as soon as next year. With another year in Monty's system and more chemistry with teammates that actually fit together he can relax and let these points come easily. Hitting 30 a game with rules favored for guys like Book it can happen. If he got more respect from the refs he'd of hit 30/gm already. More winning=more respect hopefully. I also think that next year Ayton gives us at LEAST 21/12/2.
