Unpopular suns truth book getting older you can get a lot for him eventually there gotta be a reset the went to finals playoffs. The cold truth was ayton fit your team.
We were too streaky last year from 3. End of year percentages show we were decent from 3, but I will take consistency over just pure volume
Couple uncomfortable truths about Booker.
1. I don't think he even is a star anymore. Mainly because he does not want to be one. His desire to be legendary is long gone. He reached his goal when he made it to the finals. After that Mavs series broke him. And then the damn invertebrate KD came over and 'unbothered' became Devin's new motto. He is very complaint. He enjoys his life, he comes to work every day. He is very good at what he is doing and that will do. He is an elite role player.
2. It's a new meta in the NBA to play positionless basketball. But sometimes it's better to look what card you were delalt instead of mindlessly following the template everyone else is using. OUtside of 7 foot tall guys, I can think of very few players who are as close to oldschool archetipical positions as Booker is. He is a true shooting guard. WHen life gives you lemons you should do lemonade. Suns got a lemon, but everyone around them is making orange juice so they force themselves do do orange juice aswell. Destination fucked.
3. I can throw stones at miles bridges all day every day. Never done anything remotely close to what he's done. I believe that the only reason he is not doing time is because he is rich. Double disgusting.
I agree with your unpopular opinions though I think the Portland take is a stretch. They’re going to have to rely heavily on their wing/center defense to mask the turnstiles that are Lillard, Morant and Avdija. Sorry Voita, I borrowed your phrase 😂
I like the direction of the Suns as an organization. They have a really solid infrastructure. I’m an AZ Cards fan too and it’s funny watching the contrast of the two franchises. One zigs and the other zags. Maybe observe the Suns Bidwill? 😂
Sorry guys my last comment. Do you think a Oso + Maluach lineup is a reality? Kind of excited to see that
Lissy, whilst I share your concerns with Point Book going into 2026-27 I agree with John that Ja is probably not the answer. Did I hear you right?? – "He's going to return to his humble self.". This is Morant we're talking about … right?!
We've already taken one potential hit to the culture we built in 2025-26 by signing Bridges. Not sure it could survive Ja and his antics too.
NGL I’ve always been a Bron Fan up until he joined the Lakers at that moment I became a Die Hard Suns fan and Booker fan. I say all that to say You guys r Right He is not a Super Star in the League – But to Most Suns Fans he is our “Super Star” but when you think about it he’s never really been a Super Star he’s just had some flashes of Super Star-ish Moments…J.M.O
