I've been dormant from the Suns forum for a while. Do you all see why we traded IT? We knew he was capable of that, but you need a historic offense or a historic defense to win a championship (preferably both). Isaiah could give us neither, with the lack of ball movement he provides. The Cavs, Warriors and 2014 Spurs just proved it; iso ball is the past. Ball movement is the future and the present.
The Celtics have a bunch of B guys. Hayward's a solid B+. So is Paul George. We have a bunch of B+ to A guys that haven't fully developed yet.
In four years, we'll have the better team. I guarantee it. Until then, we can't say much of anything to C's fans. Grace is better than foolishness, 11 times out of 10. Don't poke the bear with nothing to back it up.
I am a fan of both teams, I live in Scottsdale, and don't disagree with you about the Celtics roster (you go a bit too far on IT but he is a flawed star), but Booker is the only guy who has shown any real glimpse of being a B+ guy, and it is easier to put up stats on a bad team, I am not saying other players won't turn into B or B+ players (and arguably Bledsoe is already a B player). Has Chriss shown some flashes he could turn into something really good, yes, but nothing consistent that he will be an all star,, likley starter sure, all star would be a huge strech, maybe but won't be able to tell for a another year or two. Bender was hurt alot and Dirk had a bad first year too, not saying he won't someday turn into a great player but both of those guys are a long ways away from being anywhere near Paul George, Gorden Hayward or Isiah Thomas. The Suns picked up some really nice pieces in this draft and last, I am a huge Josh Jackson fan (I am originally from Kansas) and he is a perfect fit not just next to booker but as a swiss army 3/4 next to Bender if he pans out. I watch all the nationally televised KU games, he is going to be a star if he improves his mechanics on his shot. Bender is a wild card but Booker looks like a lock to be an all star someday and Jackson and Chriss have a ton of potential, there will likley be one more lottery pick next year and Chandlers deal is getting closer to being done and next offseason can be easily traded. The future is bright.
