Suns Offseason Thread 2: The Hunt for a Blazer Continues!

I'm not gonna lie, feels like he's a bit of a drama queen with all this stuff. First it just one meeting with each team now Lakers getting second chance and then he's gonna have a final list of 3 teams and then have ANOTHER set of meetings with those 3.....and now Lillard is headed to LA after signing his overpaid fat extension.

Idk, he's definitely taking advantage of all the attention he's getting now.

I dunno, its only been like 2 days, and you wanna make sure the choice you make is the right one, BUT, if he really has chosen the spurs already then yeah, this is all a bunch of garbage

Exactly, it's not like it's the most important decision of his career or anything.

Puts all this drama and money in some crazy perspective.

For sure. That's seriously messed up.

I doubt he announces anything until Saturday or Sunday. Yikes.

It's not nearly as ridiculous as the last two free agencies. At least he met with us on the first day and is meeting with others on the second day. He's not heading out of the country to go the world cup or anything.

It's a pretty big decision and I think we caught him off guard.

Imagine deciding on moving to an entirely different city than you've ever lived in and committing to 4 years...but you had several options...one close to your child.

Even if we present the better situation, it's gotta be a tough choice that you'd want to put some thought into. I think we may have about a 40% chance though.

Due diligence. If you were about to make a decision that will affect the next 4-5 years of you life you're telling me you wouldn't take the time to consider all options?

Instead of hitting submit, hit the "Full Editor & Preview" button on the bottom. Then there's a tab that say "Tweet" on it. That's how to embed Tweets. There's also Youtube/Vine and other tabs. Just FYI.

So I hit that and then paste the link?

Click on the Tweet button and it will give you two sets of brackets that say tweet in them. Put the link between the brackets.

If you ever want to see how someone embed a pic, video, tweet, etc, you can quote their post just to look at how they posted it.

For a minute there I forgot the Suns haven't made the playoffs for five years and San Antonio has sixteen straight 50-win seasons.

Spurs have missed the playoffs like 4 or 5 times total in their existence. One year they missed the playoffs and got Sean Elliott in the draft. Another year, David Robinson....yet another year, Tim Duncan. From Gervin to Duncan, they've always had dominant players.

So when they've sucked they have manage to capitalize with HOF caliber draft picks.

We had only missed them like 4 or 5 times too until the last five years happened.

I may have for a short while, but no, I don't pay attention to whatever he tweets because he is clueless and an idiot who acts like an authority who knows stuff.

Apparently also considering the Lakers, so hopefully signs with NYK so that the Lakers don't have a defensive C they can try to pitch Aldridge with.

I was just looking at hoopshype rumors and I saw he tweeted something like "Golden State possibly interested in moving David Lee". No **** sherlock they've been trying to move him for years.
