Unlimited till you get one wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe if it slowed the game down too much the NBA would put more pressure on the refs to make the right call.Personally I think instead of 3 refs running up and down the court they need 6. 2 on each end and 2 at mid court. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CTMagicUK 1,491 Report post Posted May 12, 2023 Suns now have virtually no assets and going into next season 2 of their 3 best players will be a 35 year old Durant and a 38 year old CP3. After getting blown out on their own floor in a playoff eliminator. I'm thinking maybe we save our assets for a Booker trade a year or two from now. (EDIT: just looked at his contract, he's locked down on max money through 27-28 when he'll make $60m... Probs unlikely) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The KD trade destroyed their depth, age, and future assets all at the same time. If I’m a Suns fan, I’m not thrilled about the future Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hootie249 293 Report post Posted May 12, 2023 Now that is a player you trade Victor for. I would do that in a heartbeat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orlandoholic 137 Report post Posted May 13, 2023 Suns probably more about retooling than rebuilding.. No way they trade Booker. They’ll probably trade Paul and Ayton.. Warriors are going to be interesting. I could see them trading Green and maybe even Thompson. The dude wants max money and performance hasn’t lived up to his name Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fan for too long 2 535 Report post Posted May 13, 2023 You can talk the different styles of play all you want. But in the few games I watched, the fakers were very aggressive on defense. Which usually results in more fouls. At least when the Magic get more aggressive that happens. Hmmmmm, funny how that works out for us and them. Nothing to see here folks, move along. 18 minutes ago, All Eyes On Me said: The refs definitely favor the Lakers, but the play styles play a role in this big of a discrepancy. 48 3 pt attempts by GS, 26 out of LA 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CTMagicUK 1,491 Report post Posted May 13, 2023 I'm personally not beyond the belief that refs influence games (point shaving etc) but honestly I'd have thought the league would have hoped for a game 7 more than a Lakers win in this case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
