Phoenix has waited 50 YEARS for this after the "Curse of the Coin Flip" that we lost to the Bucks and Lew Alcinder otherwise known as Kareem one of the greatest Centers to ever play the game.
But we finally have the #1 pick and all signs point to Deandre Ayton. The Bahama Boy that is only 19 and has a NBA body and skillset to be a Franchise player. He reminds me of a young Hakeem Olajuwon/David Robinson and has already put on 15 lbs of muscle working out in Phoenix as he prepares for the NBA.
I like a lineup of Booker, Josh Jackson, TJ Warren and Ayton and we also have the 16th pick.
Good young talent ready to bring Phoenix back from the ashes....
To say I'm excited would be an understatement.

The real question is what happens in free agency with all of these all-stars seeming to be unhappy where they are
The Suns Bandwagon fans will start coming out of the woodwork once again to watch this guy play.
This place is ready to EXPLODE in a few hours....
it could be worse, bro
He cut that mop recently!

when i watched them play the Jazz i seriously couldn't stop looking at his hair. i didn't even watch most of the game, i was just dumbfounded the entire time.
We went from having too many Pt guards on the Team (Dragic, Bledsoe and Isaiah Thomas) to not enough. That's the one hole that we need to fill and hopefully make a trade or move up in the draft. If only we could trade for Donavon Mitchell! LoL
Tonight is gonna be crazy with all the last minute deals/trades.
And then there is the LeBron and Kawai Drama.....
On a side note, I REALLY want lebron to go to the 76er's, so i can go see him embiid and simmons play in person on a semi regular basis.
edit: ATL. Curious what that lil shit can do.
Dude how weird is the Kawai drama? He seems like such a quiet chill dude, but with all this, its looking like he might be hard to work with. Dude is money, but wasted a whole year of his career, be curious where he lands, maybe Lakers with LBJ lol
But I'm not a Spurs fan at all so don't really care about that but I sure don't want them to go to the Lakers and make another super team.
Leonard’s situation is a bit bizarre. San Antonio seems to have the ability to “rebuild” while still winning, one of the best head coaches in the history of the game who has always seemed to EARN the highest level of respect from his players (from stars to bench sitters) and he wants out? I think that I’d be careful if I were an NBA GM when it came to making a run for him because his motivations might be completely unpredictable.....
The guy is certainly an anomoly and his current situation is a bit head scratching, he seems like the perfect fit for the Spurs organization. But Popp also seems like a crabby mofo who you can love and he loves you, until he doesn't. Kawhi is the personality type to not like drama, so if he doesn't like you or a situation he won't make it a big deal, he's just over it. I think something happened with him and front office and he jus made up his mind that he's moving on. Pure speculation of course.
I do know he has an Uncle acting as his agent and overseeing his "brand". Some articles have portrayed him as unqualified to be negotiating a top level NBA contract, endorsement deals and that he may not have Kawhi's best interests. But that remains to be seen.
Always loved this article about him. Driving the same '97 Tahoe and using free Wing Stop coupons lol
