Weren't Russ and Harden heavily involved on the Silas decision? Looked how that worked out. I'm by no way advocating for Booker, I have no interest, but just saying.
From what I've read over the years, Booker's relationship with the Suns and the community there seems to be far deeper than Russ and Harden's with the Rockets. But anything is possible.
Yeah, the Rockets under Stone have the better assets but I still felt anything was possible under Caroll Dawson and Daryl Morey than Rafa Stone. Where you could trade a minor All Star in Francis for McGrady at his height and health - a Kobe like presence. And almost spare parts for a 6th Man of teh Year Harden.
Ott had his introductory press conference. Not going to link it here, as folks can easily find it. (on Suns YT channel). His answers were OK? Nothing too revealing. Notes on offense: 'play fast, movement, cutting'. Crash the board for extra possessions. Feels more like emphasis to a young team than an old one with Beal and Book. Defense: 'communciation, stay connected'
