    All that arguing about which of those two was the future star Rockets guard and who was wrong?

    It was like Steve Francis and Cuttino Mobley all over again, but without any of the charisma or likeability.

    Gosh $75 million a year for one player.

    Sounds difficult to build a team around a player getting paid that much.

    The shot quality tells me if his shots are more 3 centered that he has major room for improvement. Those stats are just ridiculous. He is a 2K create a player.

    The worse part of it is that Booker is not a winning player by himself and you really have to put good pieces around him that can also help elevate them to playoff contender, so the Suns are just making things worse by giving him a max extension. I would 100% rebuild knowing that Booker is just not the type of player that carries you to the playoffs.

    Someday we’re going to regret giving up Malauch and Jalen Green for a guy who has literally 2-3 years left in his career and paying that guy who will play 65 games approximately 60 miilion a year which handicaps us from any other moves. Yet, for now it will be fun for the next two years!
