everyone dooming and glooming as much as possible but i dont think people realize just how much better the suns will be now that we will have more stable bench minutes. Sure we are taking a risk on counting on Bud to make the starters thrive way more than they did last season, but now if we have any momentum in Nurkic minutes, we at least have a chance to maintain that or make a run in what would've been Eubanks minutes now with Morris + Plumlee/Oso
We brought back virtually the same team that got annihilated against the Mavs in 2022 minus our starting PF and the doom and gloom wasn’t anywhere near this it’s fucking insane.
Facts bro. For whatever reason, the audience for this podcast are a bunch of doomers. But I believe the suns will be MUCH better next year
One of our biggest issues last year was at BACKUP CENTER. This is why Nurk had the BEST +/- on the team - the drop off was soooooo bad that we'd regularly lose leads and momentum once he sits.
Plumlee fixes this i believe. And just THAT in itself will make a big difference in Suns record.
Also, MIN wasnt some pushover - it turned out they were pretty damn good.
So stop with the DOOM - good moves are being made.
An average point guard is going to look pretty good with our big 3. Imagine if we had an above average point guard. But I like the direction we are going. Still I think Dallas and OKC are the favorites in the West. But we are definitely dangerous again.
Morris is a very committed player as well.
Lol..the Phoenix Buns are adorable 😂😂😂
Brendon do another collab with Jason Timpf please and thank you 🙏
I would love to if he invites me back!
I don't think this will be better than last year. As far as record, but if the sun's can make the playoffs, this roster might get us a win.
Bud is objectively a better coach than Vogel so that gives me hope.
Explain to me how the first shooter that comes to your mind when you thinking of the western conference is Dalton Knecht😐
I think, getting GILLIPSE, was the bigger steal
Durant needs to be at three they need good rebounder and inside defender t4
Things are looking better maybe we will not get walked like a dog in 2025.
fultz lowry bey crowder prince. 5 guys who could be contributors who are still available
No shitwiddie please
Get Dinwiddie/Lowry & Bullock now.
Some phx fans are so desperate to have a pg that they get excited to have a backup pg as their starting pg lol. Of course morris looked good in denver he had joker and very solid pieces around him. Yall are crazy if u think this guy is our game changer and our pg answer
He isn’t going to be a starting point guard. He’ll come off the bench and play spot minutes when needed. Having a table setter can be a game changer for the suns, even if he’s a bench player.
Yeah 4 th quarter was a problem cos of no back up point guard they will turn the ball over as much which will help a lot. Other problem is Durant playing too many minutes and didn’t bring it much in the 4 th quarter. Need to limit his minutes to about 32 a game instead of 37 a game. Need to use bol Bol and Dunn to reduce his minutes.
For what its worth I think this retool is pretty good for the shithole we're in
Morris didn’t really play in the playoffs because the timberwolves were stacked
Shore up? Dude will probably play five minutes a game while Booker and Beal still screw everything up pretending.
You should feel embarrassed to be commenting with your lack of ball knowledge
@@zeus4885 Vague vapid statement proves your glaring lack of "ball" knowledge. Just using the term "ball" outs you as a pretender. Try again. Suns pick up a no name point guard off the scrap heap, veterans minimum to quiet the fans and media, and he's the answer? Please, give us more of your stellar "ball" knowledge. None of the Suns low end additions will change a thing. That's having true "ball" knowledge. Oh, please tell the class how great Booker and Beal were at QBing the Suns through that dismal first round playoff sweep out. Remember Point Booker from ugly days gone by? That 19-63 woeful season? Any "ball knowledge" of that?
okay pessimist
@@zeus4885hell is he talking bout lol smh
@@aidancarmody4978 Reality sucks. You seriously think the Alleged Big Three are going to bow to this Morris dude when he comes into the game for a few minutes?
As the children say “cop”😂😂😂😂
This team will still underachieve and won’t win anything.
