Raptors mascot is Booker's kryptonite

What's the best 2023-2024 8-man rotation you can put together under the salary cap? in c/nba@nba.space
[–] wichita_gator@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (4 children)

This is the best I could do without using rookie contracts or max contracts:

Starters:

  • Jalen Brunson, PG: $26,346,666
  • Lu Dort, SG/SF: $15,277,778
  • Mikal Bridges, SG/SF: $21,700,000
  • Lauri Markkanen, PF: $17,259,999
  • Mitchell Robinson, C: $15,681,818

Bench:

  • Dejounte Murray, PG/SG: $18,214,000
  • Miles Bridges, SF/PF: $7,921,300
  • Naz Reid, C: $12,950,400
Instead of Beal, who should the Suns have traded CP3 and Ayton for? in c/nba@nba.space
[–] wichita_gator@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

The only offer for Ayton besides Nurkic + Little was THJ + Holmes + McGee from the Mavericks on draft night. Nobody else was going to trade for CP3 because it was leaked the Suns were planning on waiving him. Neither had much value at all, so I'm happy we were able to get what we did this off-season. Before we got Beal, the Suns were linked to Fred VanVleet and Terry Rozier at the trade deadline. We probably wouldn't have retained FVV, and Beal gives us a higher ceiling than Rozier.

Oh how I've missed Devin Booker

Suns should trade Beal in c/nba@nba.space
[–] wichita_gator@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Even if we wanted to, Beal still has a no-trade clause lol

Who is the worst player in the league at the moment ? in c/nba@nba.space
[–] wichita_gator@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Bol Bol only has a contract because he's tall and nepotism. He does not have NBA level talent or awareness.

If traded, where do you believe the Chicago Bulls' top-4 (Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, Nikola Vucevic, Alex Caruso) are realistically shipped off to? in c/nba@nba.space
[–] wichita_gator@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

They aren't listed but I would want the Suns to make a run at Jevon Carter or Andre Drummond.

2023-24 Season Predictions from the /r/NBA Power Rankers in c/nba@nba.space

Good to know that my first prediction will probably be the hardest I'll have to do.

Who are some young players who haven’t reached their potential yet? in c/nba@nba.space
Looking for a Hawks, Hornets, Clippers, Lakers, Pelicans, Suns, and Raptors Rep for /r/NBA Official Power Rankings in c/nba@nba.space
[–] wichita_gator@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

  1. I enjoy r/NBA because I can find most relevant NBA news in one location as it happens, and see what other fans are talking about. Unfortunately, redditors are rather toxic. I wish I could change that but that's not something that will go away.

  2. I have the Suns at #4 going into the season, behind Denver, Milwaukee, and Boston.

  3. I am chronically online and browse r/NBA multiple times throughout the day, but typically first thing in the morning and over lunch.

  4. I try to watch every Suns game and probably only miss a handful over the course of the season. I might watch other teams on national TV that play before the Suns. I would watch more if I was selected as a rep.

  5. u/ThunderBobMajerle u/tisdue or u/beer_down

What are your best guesses about the NBA 5 years from now? in c/nba@nba.space
[–] wichita_gator@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

If Booker does ever want to leave, I think him and Ishbia will work together to get him to Detroit. Gotta show love to their home state.
