The Suns' downfall need to be studied

The Suns' downfall need to be studied

with the working title of "how to fuck up a good thing: The Phoenix Suns story"

 

[wizenheimer]

Trading for Durant was the Suns downfall

 

[Strenuus]

First off, holy shit that was impressive.

Second off, is that Joe Cronin? Lol

Lol after trading Luka, Mavs are now raising season ticket prices to "invest in the team and fans".

I hope people stop going. Fuck them.

Seems to me they're following the OKC Thunder playbook of how to move a team.

That is a gentleman for ya. Nice one Luka. Pos. Let me know when Dame does something like that. How about a statmuse for most duchebag things in a season by Luka? Guess not

 

[THE HCP]

Anybody else having a shitty week FAMS?

 

[Cugel]

You sittin on the turtle?

 

[Cugel]

POR is making the playin. Easily. If they want to lose the pick to CHI

 

[Quatro44]

Now it’s even more hilarious why Nico felt it was so crucial to deal Luka. Wait a couple months??? Naw killer offer here. Pull the trigger.

I've seriously explained this to you a few different times. We will still pick unless we make the PLAYOFFS. If we get into the play-in and lose we'll still be in the lotto and in the top 14. I do think a play-in game just got a lot more likely with Kyrie's injury and I guess anything can happen in winner takes all games. So we will see.

I think getting our young team experience and freeing up all of our future picks for trades would be worth giving up the 15th pick in the draft.

I know you have and I am telling you I think POR makes the playoffs.

Wow! That's a bold prediction. We'll likely have to beat two really good teams in a row, with the playoffs riding on both games. Hey, if we're going to fuck up tanking we might as well get that experience and free up all of our future picks.

 

[BlazerBeav]

SGA's having an awesome season - but to me it's still clearly Joker that can single-handedly wreck any team he's up against.

First round sweep by OKC…
