2022-23 Season Discussion and Speculation 5 - The KD era begins

[BurningHeart]

I think my biggest issue is I hate watching isolation basketball and now we are an isolation team with Book and Kd just don't enjoy watching it. Oh well.

Yeah. Garbage selfish boring basketball to me too. As of things could get more boring in this league. Either take an ill advised three (not like SSOL which has a bit more intelligence and selectiveness to it) or one player dribbles around and take a stupid shot after 15 seconds

[Saberestar]

I just don't see how the Suns got better, you better hope kd cp3 book and ayton can play 45 minutes a night cause there is nothing off the bench. And after 2 years this team toast.

I for 1 hate this deal. Good luck.

Damion Lee is playing 22 mpg and he has been really good for us. You can count on him.

Lol

Why lol? You have said that we have nothing off the bench and that's not true.

Who do you want coming off the bench? Luka and Anteto?

Payne, Lee, Warren, Saric and Landale/Biyombo looks a very good second unit.

Warren is a starter, and no that's a terrible 2nd unit. Has been all year.

I have Craig as a starter, but yeah, it can be otherwise.

We can add another player yet. We clearly disagree about our second unit.

Craig sucks

By any measure it's been one of the worst benches all season

[sunsbg]

Craig looks like the dirty worker you need in this stars filled lineup, with Warren as a 6th man scorer off the bench.

Because with all the injuries we have been playing most of the time our third stringers as a backup unit.

[Mulhollanddrive]

Booker, Warren use to be our best starters now they'll be our worst bench

[Sunlight]

The fact that the Suns chose Ayton over Bridges will surely increase the anger of Ayton haters to the extreme.

Just to be clear Brooklyn choose mikal over ayton

And I'm a huge Ayton fan

I don'T think there was much to choose.
If I were the NEts I would have chosen Bridges over Ayton 100 out of 100 times

[Calvin Klein]

So many ice cold takes in this thread tell me again about James Jones not doing anything.

Sure buddy, THAT's the reason. Nets wanted Mikal over Ayton.

[handsome salary]

I like it. Mikal is a very nice player but also overrated especially as some Gary Payton type defender. He wasn't pushing this team to another level like having Durant does.

[Tha King]

I think Warren coming off the bench would be likely. His minutes were being managed on the team this year and I think a limited role off the bench would be most effective for him on the Suns now. Also not much of a defender and I think that's what you'll need.

Craig and Okogie seem like two players that could start now.

[sunsfan1o1]

So many ice cold takes in this thread tell me again about James Jones not doing anything.

New suns owner Ishbia pushed Jones to get on the phone with Marks. Reports say Ishbia wanted a deal done last night.
Ishbia got on the phone with Tsai and a deal was made.
There you go. Jones does nothing.

[Calvin Klein]

Am I the only skeptic about this trade? I just hate these kind of moves where you mortgage your entire future for an aging, highly paid, super injury prone superstar. Yeah, he is an all time great and it might work for a year, but it's so incredibly risky.

I'm excited, but also so scared about the future. Even this season looks shaky with all the injuries.
