Kyrie summer plans talk cracks me up, like that dude is unpredictable on a day to day basis so it's ridiculous to try and predict what he's got to do months from now.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

Was kind of hoping we got Damion Lee, but I figured they'd go for star players.

Kyrie
Booker

If Kyrie and Luka click in the playoffs, we better hope we dont face them
TBF, I'll still take Chris Paul 2 out of 7 days a week - just not for two straight months. CP3 is and always be a better player, he just doesn't have the legs. Still makes fewer mistakes and has a more consistently positive impact.
FWIW this season, they're equal in WS/48 and CP3 has better ORTG and DRTG, but lower BPM and VORP.
Depends which Chris Paul we get. The last two weeks yes but only for this season. Long term for the next 5 years, I'd take Kyrie if he had his head on straight, which is about as likely as Sarver re-acquiring the team.

I love that the suns are being excluded from ASG stuff. I feel like this team plays better when they have the nobody believes in us chip.

All Star weekend is as much as for entertainment and popularity rather than rewarding purely based on merit.

You guys are crazy. Kyrie is a train wreck. If we're so worried about getting a cancerous PG to help out/take over for CP3 then go get DLo. At he's 1 of Booker's close friends and will cost a fraction of what Kyrie will cost.
He can stay in Texas or go to LAL with Lebron. Keep away from my Suns, Kyrie.

Wouldn't mind taking a swing on this kid as a 3rd rotation development wing option? IF Ish gets converted and then adding him on a two way! This kid is super skilled and very solid defensively.
Spoiler:
34 points /9 rebounds /6 3PT made.
Again would be another solid 3 & D wing development prospect.
