This tournament as an accomplishment is rather meaningless. But for the players it will be great experience for them to feel sort of mini playoff games. Especially the young core who hasn't been to the playoffs before.
We are ridiculously young and still learning how to win. I personally don't care about the cup, but this has to be a good learning experience for the team. I look at it as if this were a decent college football team who gets extra practices for a bowl game, setting them up to wreck stuff later.
I would love to have him on this team when he inevitably demands a trade. Jalen, Jabari, Cam, Brooks, probably Tari and all of Phoenix’s picks for Edwards
100000% agree with you! The more meaningful games our young guys play (and win) in, the more ready they'll be come playoffs. I think it's super rare for young teams to win OT games, let alone back-to-back ones. Ime has our guys' mindsets right, at the very least!
Hell to the no. Hell no hell no hell no. That’s too much. I would consider doing it if you left out Tari or Jabari. a lineup of Sheppard Edwards Amen Jabari or Eason Sengun If the Suns implode this year and you get a top 10 pick. Top 10 2025 pick 2027 Nets Swap unprotected Best 2 picks from 2028 out of Rockets Suns Mavs picks unprotected 2027 Suns pick unprotected 3-4 Houston 1st round picks that is at least 8 picks.
