Ya we didn't draft the next MJ in the second round. Truly basketball hell...

Awesome logic

The Suns will keep Jon Leuer, who they acquired for their No. 44 pick. Leuer, a 6-10 spread PF, has a $1M salary that turns guaranteed Tues.

Probably a moneyball scenario kinda thing? Suns version of Jonah Hill whispering into McD's ears?

Los Soles works for the Suns now? I could handle that.

Why the hell would we do a salary dump.... OF ONE MILLION DOLLARS?!?!?! Dumb as hell to think we just used a second round pick just to save a mil. If this is our vet leadership than Mc D had better not show his face and try to sell that SWAMP LAND!!!!!

Ya... if you read the vet leadership part....... THAT's WORSE.

Hold on...

1. We still employ both Morris twins
3. We still employ PJ Tucker
3. We couldn't make any of the rumored/hoped-for moves to get Porzingis, Kaminsky, Looney or Harrell?

WHAT THE F*** HAPPENED!?

We trade our 2nd round pick and everyone loses their minds.

sunsbum · Post #875 » by **sunsbum** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 5:41 am

Hilarious, a pissing fit over a 2nd round pick. You guys KNOW trades dont happen on draft night, you let yourselves get hyped up with all these stupid trade ideas and then JUST LIKE LAST YEAR no trade. Did we need another 2nd? NOPE.

yeah I really don't understand all the negativity all the time, especially during draft time. Everyone gets worked up cause the team didn't draft "their guy" with a second round pick..sound round picks rarely yield good players.

Unless the Lake Show gets a big time FA the 76ers will have another top-10 pick.

The reporting leading up to this draft was awful. Wojnarowski saying the Kings were trading Cousins and doing the framework of a deal to the Lakers. Every outlet saying the Knicks would trade their pick. Woj claiming the Hornets had multiple trade partners for their pick. So many stories and not one thing of relevance happened. These reporters sucked so bad. I feel like twitter has turned the media into one big bucket of garbage. None of this stuff should have been reported. There were so many twists and turns involving the Kings. Cousins posts a picture of a snake and the entire NBA fanbase loses its mind calling for Karl to be fired, saying Divac is a liar. Today's technology is taking things that mean absolutely nothing and acting like they are important when they have nothing to do with anything.

Like that stupid tweet the other day when someone posted Lebron will not re-recruit Kevin Love. He feels Love already knows he can be part of something special. I mean duh. Why the hell would he try to re-recruit Love in the first place? Why is that news? What is Lebron supposed to do? Have a meeting with him and say look man, this is what we can do together, let me explain it. I think Love already knows what the deal is and tweeting that Lebron not wanting to re-recruit him as a news story is pathetic. The reporting keeps getting worse and worse.
