[23nbafan23]

@MrAtrain556 maybe maybe, i hoope

[Meadowcreek45]

those court look so big on tv, but i played on that court before and its kinda small.

[runninUPinYa]

@Meadowcreek45 Ummmm, it's kinda the same size as every other regulation sized basketball court

[ultramicroscopicsili]

welcome to phoenix..

[smrio]

out with the lakers. and spurs were always overrated, thats why they got beat severly in 2010. Go Gani ! Go Suns ! ! !

[LiLkRnMofo]

oh God, not another high-energy guy..... doesn't Griff understand we have a surplus of PFs just like this guy? Louis Amundson, Dwayne Jones, Jared Dudley.... what we really needed was another backup PG to replace Dragic when he becomes a starter after Nash retires, or an athletic and skilled SF or C who can work within our offense

[1suns31]

@LiLkRnMofo dont worry man. We got next year's draft to draft a backup pg. Gani Lawal was a steal for us. Im so happy the suns drafted him.

[bjp326]

@LiLkRnMofo Whoa... let's clear some things up, buddy.

- Lou is a free agent, has minimal offensive skills besides rebounding, and gets pushed around by guys with motors.

- Dwayne Jones is a 3rd string PF/C, unproven, and made it off the bench a couple of times.

- Dudley is a SF.

- PG is not a need right now.

- If Lawal or Collins get to play with Nash/Dragic, I say All Rookie team with their motors.

- Lopez is good to go. Remember how he was playing before the injury??

[LiLkRnMofo]

@bjp326 Gani has just as limited offensive skills as Lou. Lou can pick and roll and score off putbacks, and I don't expect Gani to match Lou in this department. Even in rebounding, Lou was 9th in the league in rebounds per 48 minutes last year, while Gani was 21st in rebounds per 40 in the NCAA. Gani looks mainly like an offensive rebounder, and Dudley and Jones are our protection in that department. PG protection is important for us with Nash's impending retirement. Bottom line-we dont need him

[bjp326]

@LiLkRnMofo Man, Lou has 6-years of experience on Gani. Don't you think he would be further along now? And are you forgetting that Gani played next to Favors, the #3 pick? Take him away & I bet you he is top 5 rebounding. In addition, GTech had poor guard play with their top assist man having an amazing 1.3 A / TO ratio.

It would be absurd to get a back up PG now with Stat, Lou, & Frye leaving. Again, Dudley is a SF... Jones = unproven

[MisterJackson2U]

@bjp326 Frye has a contract... He';s not going anywhere.

[bjp326]

@MisterJackson2U Yeah, my comment was 2 weeks ago. I'm glad he did...

[MisterJackson2U]

@bjp326 I reserve judgement for when/if he hits his 3's this season.

[bjp326]

@MisterJackson2U 174 last year is a pretty good sign. Personally, I think he needs to lay off some of the 3balls and work on attacking the rim.

[MisterJackson2U]

@bjp326 Yeah, hopefully in the offseason he works on other aspects of his game. If he learned how to post as well, he would be a very very threatening player.
