Remember all the news about how we have a bear skeleton scout team out there. Makes sense with all the draft picks that James Jones has selected. One of many Sarvers cost cutting.

You could have a bear skeleton scout team and still have made a better selection than what the Suns made…all you needed was common sense.

If James Jones used draftexpress or NBADraft.net he probably could’ve made better selections than he did.

Simple, because dipshi****bia is a completely delusional arrogant, clout-chasing, attention hound that cares for nothing that doesn't feed his ego, and Jones as a consummate grifter with a silver tongue just keeps whispering things to feed this moron's overly inflated ego wherein he believes he's smarter than everyone else in the league, and Jones believes that he is too. Jones has systematically dismantled our future in his 7 years with this franchise. And Bit***bia is determined to use his extensive basketball acumen to bury this franchise even deeper over the next decade or two as long as he can keep feeding his ego doubling down on his delusions over and over again! Worst of all is that despite his delusions of grandeur and intellectual superiority, You just can't buy your way out of stupid! Jones is just doing what he does best, being a brown-nosing yes-man con artist now riding Bit***bias' coattails just like he rode Le'douches' coattails to get his championships as an end-of-bench option. Our idiotic arrogant owner and he get along because they're both delusional arrogant imbeciles that "circlejerk" each other! :evil: :nonono:

Yeah,
Sorry guys for the somewhat inflammatory response. I just can't stand fake arrogant d-bags that straight up lie to people and treat everyone else like their idiots or something and don't understand things because the person talking is rich, so somehow that makes them superior and more intelligent than everyone else.

We seemingly just got clear of one profoundly idiotic banker owner that was ruining our team for close to twenty years and probably lost us multiple championships because of his ego driven perspectives. Now it appears that we may have yet another complete moron who thinks just because he is rich, his perspectives are the the only correct ones and that being rich makes him smarter than everyone else in the room, and clearly the facts of our situation prove over and over again that just isn't the case.

The problem is that while he unknowingly entirely destroys our team's future the way that he's doing, just to serve his ego ( Just forget the facts or reality, I'm right and everyone else is wrong because I'm rich mentality), our franchise is descending even further down the abyss than before with Saver because now we have absolutely no alternative path to correct things or an alternative aspect to look forward to as we perennially lose and fall short each year.

The only solace will be the end of all this when Booker finally gets fed up and demands out. This sucks really bad too, because then we'll have no young talent or star players to take over because this moron egoist has happily given away our entire assets/ future for immediate gratification and clout that will never come because he's incapable of seeing reality of our situation as he's just too pleased with himself to look at anything else. :-?

Did you see Ishbia mocking draft picks? He said “if any of you are getting excited about some rookie or 7th grader 6 years from now, that’s not what we’re about here”

He’s basically saying he values zero youth and doesn’t believe in actually developing young guys.

He’s the kind of owner who would trade away a prospect like SGA for example to get some big names.

What kind of idiot openly says he doesn’t believe in the draft or draft picks when every single half decent player in the NBA came through the draft including mostly all first rd prospects.

It's obvious he wants to win now and has no patience waiting for a draft pick to develop. Probably thinks he can just sign or trade for someone like SGA. The problem is these players are not available in free agency, so you are stuck overpaying for lesser players who other teams didn't extend with such strategy. Superstars are occasionally available via trade, but it's hard to get one when you are out of assets.

He's right. No one gives 2 F's about a 7th grader in 2031.

Not even tanking teams in 2024 cares about that 7th grader in 2031.

Giannis has a calf strain almost a month ago and misses the entire 2024 playoffs.

Giannis has a badly hyperextended knee just before the Finals in 2021 and comes back within a week to put on superhuman performances....

Knicks had a 14 point lead blew it and are down by 3 at halftime. This will be an even bigger choke job that anything clippers & 76ers went through with Doc Rivers. lol

Maxey is the man outplaying Brunson at the moment. Never mind Maxey prior to the three has been struggling all game long.

Return to Phoenix Suns
