What’s so great about Phoenix that it’s everybody’s acceptable destination?

They dont have to live there in the summer.

Owner hands out contracts, better taxes than CA, good weather during the season, and close to LA.

I am loyal to Tucson but talent is pretty great in Phoenix. Think too stupid to get into a UC.

The high temperature today February 3 was 84F.

The Warriors gonna try to trade for KD, fail, and then just trade for Jimmy Butler anyways, aren’t they?

Guerschon Yabusele is a pretty big name, as is Thanasis Antetokounmpo. I bet there are a lot of big names GSW can realistically get. Maybe a call out on Georgios Papagiannis?

I wouldn’t mind us getting Yabu tbh. Pretty much just older, slightly more polished Isaac Jones.\

That's...not a benefit.

For players, it absolutely is.

Yeah, I know, but not for normal folks. I lived down there for 2.5 years right after college (in Placentia - worked nearby in Anaheim) and couldn't stand it. The traffic and smog were absolutely brutal.

Not sure how I didn't realize this, but Martin's contract is insanely good. Signed for another 2 seasons at 8.75 per and has a PO for 9.3 for a 3rd season.

Send out all the 2nds, bring on Caleb and Jval.

great weather for about 8 out of 12 months, lots of outdoor activities. Reasonable real estate for millionaire families.

LOL what are the Mavs doing? Grimes might actually be better than Caleb

JJ Reddick gonna have to start LeBron at center or something because his center rotation is currently Jackson Hayes and burnt Christian Wood

when you request a trade to a team that can’t trade for you and no one else ends up wanting you

why?

Looks like among WC teams they are in the bottom 3rd of total miles logged in their travel schedule this year.

As for proximity to LA or elsewhere I have to imagine these guys charter flights to Las Vegas or LA anyways.

Tax situation is moderate.

Arizona is definitely on my retirement list. Although I am not sure how that tracks for 20-30something millionaires. But like I said before the talent at the local community sorry state college is something else.
