Ryan Dunn had 20 points 4 rebound 4 assists 3 blocks and 2 steals shooting 6-11 from 3 today. If that holds up even a little (say 35 percent from 3) the Suns might have found a bigger and bouncier Herb Jones.

In college, he didn't just miss 3 pointers, he missed them badly and in a way that said his shot was broken. If he had shown the ability to hit 3s at even 35%, he would've been a lottery pick.

the weird thing is it sounded like he could shoot in high school if I remember right. These college coaches are doing their players with nba potential like Dunn and TJD a major disservice by not developing that part of their game.

Not entirely surprising at this point, but definitely a shame. I think all the games missed due to injury have really made people forget just how incredibly good of a player Kawhi is when healthy.

With the Clippers, Kawhi has logged 7,699 minutes. and made about $200 million

With his salary and availability, Kawhi's rate is about $25,000 per minute of regular season play. There used to be a SpaceX mission to send a tourist to the moon and back for about that rate.

That 2019 Raptors run was all time. I don't say this lightly, but I legit think he had top 10 all time player potential if his last 5 years were just healthy. His resume at 27 after that ring was really just absurd.

He's still a HoF, easily, but def a "what could have been" with him

I have no idea what Zaza Pachulia is up to these days, but I feel like he can't ever set foot in San Antonio again.

I still don't get why Dave, of all people is pushing this narrative.

Of course, Fox wants this team to be great and be on the upswing. Duh. But he's not signing the extension because with a huge year, he'd be eligible for richest contract in the NBA (i believe?).

Let's just say that even if we have a bad team year, Fox makes the all-nba; he's not turning down that contract. No matter what he may feel about the direction of the organization.
