Interesting to see Suns fan with such a prevalent feeling of regret for drafting Ayton.

Mitchell is being called a chuck by Jazz fans.

Is Devin Booker even a remotely winning player? The guy gets $158 **** million and he’s not able to will that team to a few more wins? When I watch them play I see him score and make a couple nice passes but I always ask myself if he’s making anyone around him better. You would like to think that with Ayton having the rookie campaign he is, along with a vet like Ariza and a scorer like Warren that they could string some solid games together. At the end of the day it feels like Booker is destined to be in the mold of a Kevin Martin impact wise. He might end up a 15 year pro who never makes it past the 1st round of a Playoff

It’s a shame his lack of defense and ability to play within a modern system will be his doom. He’s a legend in the era before this one tho.

Tyson chandler, vince carter and pau gasol was drafted earlier. There are also guys that are about the same age as melo that are still playing or in the nba roster.

Not even the point.

We’re talking the 2003 draft class.

Defense? Systems? You serious?
Melo was on the bench and playing most of his minutes at PF. Had some really good games too.

Melo is getting blackballed. Just admit that and let’s move on.


Draymond and Cousins are the next two I can think of that this will happen to.

One player doesn’t will other grown ass players.

They don’t even have a damn PG.

Have this same energy when KP gets paid and he doesn’t will the bums we have to greatness.

sigh... im not the only one saying this. His defense is not good. Same thing happened to AI. Another example I can think of is Kevin Martin. Dray is valuable bc he passes and plays defense. Cousins I agree on.

I do agree Melo should still be in the league but I just named reasons why he wont. Im not even hating
