Nice to see the firepower of the Suns finally on display as it's been expected to be for two seasons now.

He needs help and that help Is Kessler :nod:

Reaves would do well in Utah and be an immediate fan favorite. Trade would make sense for both teams with some fillers added in.

The trade that was on youtube was;
Kessler/Sexton
FOR
JHS/DLO and 2 protected pics, but apparently Rob/Lakers didn't want to use the 2 pics - Rumors had Utah wanting JHS In deal + 2 pics, weren't to concerned about DLO, just wanted expiring.

That's what I want and I'd do It :nod:

Just watched the NBA game summary on youtube. It felt like an inadvertent lowlight real of low/no effort from LeBron on defense with a few live ball TO's thrown in for good measure.

I think it was three or four years ago people were talking about LeBron playing to the same age as Tom Brady. I said no way because "point guard ain't quarterback; point guards have to play defense." Tonight James played forward, but apparently he couldn't be bothered to help anyone out on that end.

Classic Butler foul merchant game. He can throw shoulders into chests but you can't defend him at all.




What is that?? Every time I watch him I'm amazed at the calls he gets. Butler's resume speaks for itself, but most competent guards can dribble into a defenders chest, bounce off, flop and chuck up a runner and there will be no call. Yet Butler gets it a lot of the time. That has to be all reputation.



Giannis can be going full speed, get bodied into the first row, no call because the dude doesn't flop.

I'm not saying Giannis doesn't get calls. But the Butler thing always amazes me.

No idea. He has somehow just built up a reputation across the league of being someone who can get to the line. And so he gets calls that hardly anyone else gets, not even other stars.

The entire franchise needs a hard reset from GM/Coach downwards.

Trade Zion for Cap Space and future picks, and just start all over, red rover.

I would take Dyson Daniels over Dejounte Murray anyday.

Pure front office incompetence. Gutted for Pels fans
