Wasn't going to log in, but had to to give an and1. Thanks for the giggles :lol:
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.

Hell no. He’s been a top 3 player on the Suns and arguably the most consistent.

Is he the second coming of Bruce Bowen? Spurs could need someone like that.

I had to double check to see if I started this thread. Can’t believe there is a Grayson thread and I didn’t start it, I’m disappointed in myself.

He’s exactly what the Magic need, I was hoping once the rumors of KD being unhappy started up that the Suns season was going to tank and Magic could trade for him.

Curious if the Suns will be willing to move him still since he’s an unrestricted free agent and they are stacked at the 2 position.

Elite 3pt shooter who knows how to move off the ball and keep passing lanes open to him. Not a great defender but he plays hard on that end and is solid.

He would make Paolo’s life a lot easier.

Man.. I really think Anfernee Simons to the Magic makes soooo much sense.

Except for Suggs, we really do not have a reliable 2guard so i dunno about this stacked thing... unless you mean the oft-injured and washed-up Gary Harris? Or the unknown 11th pick rookie Jett?

I dunno... GA seems to be a better fit than Simons?

Agreed. Simons is a big Time Per Possession and Time Per Touch guy. Unless its a star player, if Im the Magic I dont want touches and time being taken away from Paolo and Franz. Grayson is the kind of guy that knows exactly how to play off of stars.

Yup. Qe want someone who doesnt need the ball. We have Paolo to playmake and Franz to slice in. We need someone to get passed to and drain 3s.
