With how the cautious the team appears to be with injuries, I’m guessing Ayton is shut down till after the All Star break.

This, of course, would mean that he doesn’t participate in the Rising Stars game either.

There is no bottom


Bottom for this season is here. Has been since December. But bottom for the Suns fans? Watching MVP Luka in multiple finals while Aytons Suns hover around 30-35 wins yearly would be a lower point than now. And Booker on a playoff team in the East after they traded him for never reaching it on the Suns.

Watched 5 minutes in the first quarter. Looked okay. When was able to check back in they were down 20. Turned it off. This has now become my game watching routine.

There is no entertainment value in watching this team. Even in the past, I found it more entertaining watching Booker try to go for 50 rather than 30 and 10 assists. There's just no fun in watching for me.

They're actually going to be bothered with games? Hell - to hear you guys talk, they've already handed Doncic ROY, 1st team all-NBA, DPOY, the scoring title, league MVP, the O'Brien trophy and Finals MVP, so why are we worried about meaningless games?

Just give up - yeah, that's the ticket.....

Over the next 15 years of his career many of those awards will likely accumulate alongside his Euroleague MVP, Euroleague Championship, Euroleague Rising Star award, Eurocup Championship, and numerous other accolades. Fans like you were too blind to see the talent before the draft and then are all sour grapes when he gets rightful and deserving recognition.

No sour grapes here - Doncic was actually my choice should we have gotten the #2 overall pick, but when you've got Doncic fanboys calling him "prime Kobe" and worshiping every breath the kid makes, it gets tiresome pretty damn quick.

But thanks for cherry-picking, just the same. :lol:
