Givony is sweating. Get that man a fan.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

So much for all those seconds, I guess? Hopefully they make these picks count.

Come on, Johni Broome!

Much better crew tonight. I almost said last night Bilas has his faults, but I'd rather him than SAS. So now we get Bilas and still have Bob Myers and a nice panel with no SAS.

Yup. Called it last night Fleming was the missing piece. Suns lacked PF who can be small ball C... and Fleming is like a bigger less creative OG Anunoby.


For those who questions his feel for the game.... read his The Ringer profile in their draft site...

Fleming is just honing his role in the NBA.... a stretch 4 who can defender small and big players and finish plays.... he has so much potential. They compared him to a 3pt shooting Taj Gibson.... which is frigging a huge call.

Even if he is never put in a position where he has to make a decision (ie playmaking, creating), he'll be a perfectly good finisher. Finishing at the rim, finishing on the PnR, finishing on the PnP, finishing on the kick out 3.

Oh and he plays solid defense too...

This should be a nice acquisition. Big that's versatile and can shoot? That's a big set of immediate pluses for us. How long before he works he way into the starting lineup?

Booker, we're building this team around you now.

No excuses.
