The Official 2024 Offseason Thread Part 2

George Bush was president when Lowry was drafted. First iPhone hadn’t been released yet. Median home value in the US was $185,000. Amazon was strictly a book selling company.

Some talk on reddit about Markelle Fultz being still unsigned, and somebody said Phoenix would be a goid idea for him. Wpuld that even be doable? Does he no longer have a market beyond mininum these days?

Not bad...21/10.5/9 with 2 steals, 40% 3pt on 8 attempts per game.

Damn dude was flirting with a triple double average! 3 triple double in 8 games. Really solid Ast:TO ratio too.

I'm perfectly good if we keep Nurk. Skilled bully ball C, great team guy, first year in forever that we didn't get bullied by Jocic and Big Val!!

Was about to ask the same thing. At this point the Suns better beg Rubio to come back or they must have some trade in place for a PG

Dang, I would have liked Bamba for the vet's minimum. Can spread the floor, but I suppose we are looking for a center that can pass.

I’m surprised no news on Okogie and Lee.. if they were coming back I feel it would been announced by now, makes me feel they are seriously considering other options

I would be fine with it

A bit of change is a good thing

I was initially excited by plumlee but the more and more I sit and think about it, it’s just more of the same. This roster is the same as last year but with different names on a few uniforms. Eubanks couldn’t shoot, Plumlee can’t shoot (and is 35).

Sitting back and looking (being totally realistic), this team may be a tad worse than last year. Seriously take a step back and analyze this roster. We now have an older slower Eubanks and a taller, faster Okagie.

We still have the exact same problems as last year. 1) lack a starter PG. 2) lack a defensive force at center (Nurkic is easily the worse defensive center in the league who has a hard time making a layup). 3) lack offense outside of the big 3. 4) still missing with size and Athleticism.

Okagie needs to stay off this roster. No matter how much he hustles and tries, his offense makes him unplayable. He’s not at threat to the other team. Good kid, nice story, but not an NBA player.

Assuming this is the last major addition, are you more excited than you were last offseason?
