    Ayton severely outplayed Nurkic in this one, 25 and 20 versus 0 and 0.

    Camara scored 17, Grayson Allen scored 11.

    I think at this point, whatever Ayton's salary is, it's a Defcom 2 Fleecing.

    That's what i think. And if he did it was perfect, bounced far out and straight out.

    We have a shot. The object is to win games. You seem to have forgotten that. I know I'm not going to convince you so go ahead and have the last word. I'm going to enjoy the win.

    Pun intended.

    I can say I am in attendance when Booker became the Suns leading scorer all time

    I would like an explanation why they didn't foul up 3 at the end of regulation. Probably on the players.

    No. The object is to win championships. Not win games. Some games are meaningless. Some games are not. I didn't forget anything. The objective is still to build a team that can win a title.

    And that shit is so fucking weak dude.

    YOU made a lame ass post about people being misguided for wanting to trade Simons and Grant. I responded and now you're going to act like this? Troll ass shit.

    "Ant didn't shoot well but was huge in the game." That answers it all. How Chauncey sees Anfernee. He was huge.

    Meahwhile, "Scoot played well."

    He also really praised Grant; it was hilarious.

    last game: Ant-Ayton-Grant 96 minutes/37 shots....Scoot-Sharpe-Clingan 61 minutes/22 shots

    this game: Ant-Ayton-Grant 125 minutes/51 shots....Scoot-Sharpe-Clingan 51 minutes/18 shots

    last 2 games: Ant-Ayton-Grant 221 minutes/88 shots....Scoot-Sharpe-Clingan 112 minutes/40 shots

    tonight: Ant-Ayton-Grant 51 points on 51 shots....Scoot-Sharpe-Clingan 28 points on 18 shots

    I guess those people saying getting a high draft pick doesn't matter are right, because it sure as shit doesn't matter to management or coaching. Go with the vets to win games!! Put the 3 high lottery picks on the bench and bury them!!

    what are you expecting?

    if a trade of any of the vets was pending, they wouldn't have played over 40 minutes tonight. Chauncey wants to win games and he believes those vets give him the best shot at winning. I don't think he gives a shit about the future of the team, especially if he knows there's a good chance he won't be the HC next season

    Because the young vets are very much apart of this team. I don't even understand how that's a question
