I am not sure he has much value but the fact the Suns wouldn't have to pay him if they move him is fine with me.

my idea: a team wants to move up -- trade back and make them take Josh



I think I’d rather just decline his option and waive/stretch.

I wouldn't shock me if they went that route. But honestly I could still see a team like Cleveland take him for basically free and absorb him into their cap space. Its not like they will be a player for big FAs so it's a low risk potentially decent reward move for them and if they don't like what they see this summer and in camp they simply decline his option and he's off the books in a year.

Definitely... but also to be fair to Josh...Jones needs to hear his story first... I think he was at the festival with Ayton/Book/Oubre. If Book sticks out his neck for Josh, that could have some impact on his future..

Really any circumstances around this are probably pretty much a young dude doing something dumb but overall it's not a big deal. It's another mark against his decision making but that's about it.

Ive been a vocal advocate of getting rid of him for his play on the court which is abysmal. You just can't play a guy that bad in your rotation if you're trying to win. I've been hoping to be proven wrong but I had major concerns about him by like his 10th NBA game. He's just not good.

Josh shot his shot multiple times and missed all of them.

He has the same success rate sneaking into the VIP section as he does finishing in the paint.

They'll probably be looking to move him as soon as possible( draft night inclusion deal likely) now after this latest blunder. :oops: :noway:

Josh and TJ for JR Smith and Zizic. If they want pure cap space and the Cavs want to take a flier on Josh and take TJ.

If it were just security trippin at the show I could see some leeway, I have heard of artists complaining about the security. But after the idiot got arrested and HANDCUFFED, HE **** RAN AWAY WHILE HANDCUFFED!!! Just shows how much of an IDIOT he is. He is done here man!

Since I live in Miami I feel obligated to provide some background info. The city of Miami Gardens was targeting young minorities at this festival. They wanted to search lil Wayne which forced him to drop from the festival. They also arrested Kodak black for weapons charges. Let’s not all hate on josh because of dirty racist cops in Miami. He shouldn’t have ran but trying to get into VIP doesn’t sound like a reason to be arrested. Miami Gardens is also Home to one of the most crime in Miami. The police there are out of control and will arrest anyone black and moving. This also goes along with Memorial Day weekend on south beach. The police and government are trying hard to end that event so they arrest everyone for anything. It’s moreso the police and politicians trying to control anything hip hop or having to deal with minorities than it is them being menaces. Although Kodak black isn’t the smartest person I would hold judgement on Josh jackson for now knowing where this happened and by who

Who cares how she does on the mic. This was her first job and she got better as the season went on. Weezy was more polished but he was so fake...like a Disney talent show actor. Slate was so much more fun and real even if you don't count that she's a hot chick.

-Slate is the kind of girl you give the security codes to on the 3rd date.
-With Lindsey, it would take 6-18 months.
-With Rachel Nichols, I'd get get engaged after 7 years due to family pressure but get a rock solid prenup. Then I'd probably just blow my brains out a day before the wedding anyway.


Slate also has been fired. Not a Suns hostess anymore.



Once again a BAD decision by the Suns. #ThanksSarver

As I mentioned, I can see having problems with security being heavy handed idiots and exposing them after the fact. The part that I have no tolerance for is running from the cops after being handcuffed, where the hell you gonna go? You dont think they are gonna know who you are?!

SO you don’t think it’s not out of the realm of possibilities that a police officer in one of the most corrupt cities in America lied about Josh jackson running while handcuffed? I don’t believe anything cops say.
