Na, Booker can handle the ball and has good court vision. Martin was strictly an off ball player(a really good one). If anything once Booker becomes a lights out shooter from outside instead of a streaky one like he is now, a whole lot of stuff will open up for him. I see a little Brandon Roy in him.
 
This young suns team will be on their way up real soon while the kings will still be toiling right here in this gray area. Not horrible. Not good. Just......meh.

The team gets beat at every non Cuz spot of the floor, and don't have specialists who can make a sum greater than its parts.

Afflalo and Tolliver as your best spacers?
Barnes and Koufos your defensive guys?

It's gonna take a a miracle like Ben becoming a legit 2 to stay competitive in this race.

I'm proud of how they compete, but it's just not a good roster.

It never was. It was stop gaps, one year deals being brought in to make a push at a culture change.
 
Jeez we suck at home. Sucks for the fans. Cuz blew it on the bs flop shot at the end, what a joke. Go to the freaking hoop!
 
I will not watch this team again this season. This is awful. We cannot win the games we should win, They aren't worth discussing although I realize there are people who know what to do and will babble on and on. No more. I'm too old for this crap. I look forward to the Tour de France and visiting my son, daughter-in-law and the future heart breaker, my grand daughter, Alice. Priorities.

The whole season was based on if Ty Lawson could come back to being Denver Ty Lawson (good risk but highly unlikely), the whole season hinged on that otherwise you don't construct a roster this old/crap/unathletic/low IQ we downgraded in every way in the off season o yeah and we literally overpaid all those guys aside from Temple when we could have saved a ton of money bringing back Seth/Q and having money to actually go after even a middle tier player.

I suppose you can call it trial by error...Vlade is getting a front seat view of how to NOT construct a team around Boogie. Must be the hardest star player to build around.

what would you have him do instead considering the pieces he has been given by the GM?

You do gotta admit that you should have beat this bad suns team, don't you? Especially since we are in the middle of making a mad dash toward the 8th playoff spot, according to ownership....

Really? People say that about any franchise that has a surplus of young talent. Nothing about this Suns team stands out as far as young teams go. Chriss and Bender have proven nothing and may never prove anything, Booker's good but I don't think he's spectacular, and don't say TJ Warren... Meanwhile, they might have the worst coach in the NBA and their management is just as bad as ours. If you think the grass is greener in Phoenix you're not paying attention.

But I know people like to play the woe is us card after losses like this and then talk up other podunk franchises like the Suns as if we're unworthy to be in their presence.
 
Bookers only 20-21, he can definately be a superstar, it takes a special player to get and make that shot at such a young age.
 
The Mavs start our throwaway (Curry) and a guy on ten day contracts(Ferrell) and yet here they are and they have overtaken us in the standings. Difference in culture of two franchises. They seemed content to tank and bottom out and we came in willing to do anything to make the playoffs. lol.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda. You let bad teams hang around all game long, something is bound to happen. I mean, you want to call the Suns team bad, but the Kings have only 3 more wins then them...so no game is a given. We got spoiled by beating the Cavaliers. It's time to let reality sink in once more.

speaking of the Suns, aren't they third behind the Wolves & Kings in terms of consecutive lottery seasons?

You think Mark Cuban was content to sit there and tank? Freaking what?

Whose talent would you take? The Kings or the suns?

Getting sick of Joerger's proud of the guys stuff, and he's done a bad job so far
Click to expand...

Agreed. Joerger smiles too much, during the game, during time-outs, during post game banter. Sure aint no Gregg
Popovich. Pop would be steamed half the time coaching this loser Kings crew. And of course he'd ride them, coach the hell out of them.
