Weird coming from a guy with only 300 less posts than I have and I've been here 10 years longer.

Calling people old heads because they don't want a team they support to employ a dude that beat up his girl, on video mind you, then went after her AGAIN with his kids in the car has nothing to do with age. You'll learn as you get older that sometimes things are bigger than basketball.

Happy to help.

Wonder if Ishbia is feeling like he jumped the gun buying the Suns…has he waited a year, maybe his hometown Pistons team would be coming available for sale.

Nah, far from it I just asked him a simple question. Of course Bridges deserves a second chance but I don’t believe it should be with this team. I’m sure you remember Jerry Colangelo and how he refuses to bring these type of knuckleheads to our team. He got rid of Kidd immediately after domestic violence and Robert Horry gone too after on-court altercation with coach Danny Ainge, during which Horry threw a towel at Ainge. Colangelo did not mess around and neither should Matt.

And tried breaking window with hose nozzle !!!

Sounds like she was a winner yall support

I don’t know why you’re even arguing with these guys. They’re simps. Women can do no wrong to them.
Miles Bridges was wrong and paid the consequences. I’m sure that lady was/is a nightmare to be with. Women don’t just get beat for no reason.
Bridges just has very low emotional intelligence. Hopefully for him he can figure it out.
Im always gonna be on the side of helping black men. Not continuing to bash and destroy them.

I felt like we were also having trouble on the offensive side of the ball but 17 freaking points in the 4th quarter with the big 3 healthy, well Beale was messed up, is unacceptable.

What is the problem. Roster or Coaching?

I think both are to blame. This type of performance has been an ongoing problem all season. We are still the worst scoring team in the entire NBA at 24.7 points per game. If we do not fix this issue we have no chance in the playoffs, if we make the playoffs.

This is what needs to be fixed whether it be coaching or roster.

Last night the Big 3 did not get in done in the 4th quarter.

The problem was Booker hunting to top his 70 point game

There are horribly scummy women out there that’s agreeable. But not every man decides to snap and square up to punch them right in the face when he spots a perfect opportunity. How about moving out is the best option and solution. Obviously going to the cops will not accomplish much that’s a certain. But there are definitely ways around the system then decking the female and causing yourself to lose your job. At least Bridges is lucky that he’s a millionaire and kept his job while many others aren’t so lucky.

And this is why he never won a championship. Colangelo was a simp. An emotional man raised by a Karen.

Suns reportedly targeting Nick Richards ahead of NBA Trade Deadline
The trade deadline is nearing, and things are heating up.

By NathanBeighle Jan 27, 2024, 1:55pm EST

The Phoenix Suns may be eying another former Kentucky Wildcats player. Right now, the team is led by Devin Booker, but there have been a plethora of Cats on the roster since he joined the team, including now-Kentucky assistant coach Tyler Ulis.

ClutchPoints’ Trevor Booth wrote that “multiple” sources indicate that the Suns have an interest in trading for Hornets big man Nick Richards. Yahoo Sports’ Jake Fisher also reports that Phoenix is interested in acquiring Richards.


Now 26 years old, Richards was drafted in the second round of the 2020 NBA Draft by the New Orleans Pelicans but has spent all four years of his career with the Hornets. He’s averaging a career-high 24.5 minutes per game and has 19 starts as well. He is showing promise, averaging a career-best 8.7 points and 7.6 rebounds per game to go with shooting 67.5% from the field.

The Suns are in need of frontcourt depth but don’t have the assets to make a big splash, so a rotational player like Richards is the kind of target they’ll likely consider ahead of the NBA Trade Deadline, which is February 8th.

Expect movement to commence in the coming week as title-contending teams look to round out their rosters.


So the suns ARE interested or they aren't? This article is saying that they are in on him again, but just recently...........
Gambo put out a tweet saying NO! on the Nik Richards rumors.
Read on Twitter



Maybe they've just changed their mind and decided to pursue him again? I mean it's good that the suns DO recognize our significant weaknesses with rim protection and having an athletic shotblocker/ big man that can actually challenge at the rim or in the paint! I have to wonder though IF charlotte would actually even entertain moving him consisering how decent he's been for them as a depth piece behind Mark Williams? :dontknow:
