Last year, I viewed the “battle of the Bridges” (Mikal Bridges vs. Miles Bridges) to be pretty much a wash. Both of them were playing a medium-sized role as rookies on not-very-good teams, and both of them did a decent job of being productive right away in the NBA. However, Miles has pulled away from…

Cameron Johnson 18 Points Full Highlights (11/19/2019)
Once again, I have been misled as to the age (and thus, the quality) of an NBA prospect. I don’t know who it is doing the misleading, but it has to be someone, because I wouldn’t be so consistently wrong on these things. I was under the impression that Cameron “Tall Booker” Johnson was, like,…
Read MoreFrank Kaminsky 19 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2019)
Okay, Suns fans. You can stop hating on Frank Kaminsky now that he’s had two good games in a row, an amount of games which OFFICIALLY breaks him out of the extended slump he was in. No longer do your rude nicknames like “Frank the Clank” and “Frank the Stank” have any relevance. The new…
Read MoreKelly Oubre 30 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2019)
How long until Kelly Oubre’s “do pushups every time I end up on the floor” shtick becomes played out? Or is it already played out? Perhaps I’m turning into a grumpy old man, perhaps I’ve always been a grumpy old man trapped in a young man’s body. Suns fans seem to like it still, but…
Read MoreDario Saric 23 Points Full Highlights (11/14/2019)
Dario Saric waited a few years before coming to the NBA after being drafted. 76ers fans didn’t like it much, but that’s what comes with the territory of drafting handsome Euros. But I’m thinking that maybe he didn’t wait long enough. Maybe he shouldn’t have come over at all? Hear me out. It’s a well-established…
Read MoreFrank Kaminsky 16 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2019)
Just when Suns fans were reaching the breaking point with Frank Kaminsky, his cartoonishly elongated head, and his mastery of the art of the brick, he goes out and has another good game to buy himself some time. After not hitting a three-pointer for two full weeks (though not for lack of trying), he hit…
Read MoreAron Baynes 20 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2019)
One of my duties as an F-list e-celebrity is to expose and debunk the blatant pro-Spurs propaganda that infests the internet. It’s everywhere, not as everywhere as it was while they were winning championships all the time, but still basically everywhere. It’s unavoidable, the only thing I can do is challenge it when I see…
Read MoreDario Saric 18 Points Full Highlights (11/12/2019)
The Suns made a lot of acquisitions over the summer, once again positioning themselves as a contender for the 8th seed in the West. Ignoring the fact that being an 8th seed is not something a team should really be striving for, and ignoring the fact that that’s what they tried to last year with…
Read MoreCameron Johnson 15 Points Full Highlights (11/10/2019)
I haven’t seen much, but I’ve seen enough of Cameron “Tall Devin Booker” Johnson to tell that I want him on the Bucks. Instead of offering Thon Maker like I always do, I’d like to extend an offer of a different sort to the Suns’ front office: pick any two players you want not named…
Read MoreAron Baynes 23 Points Full Highlights (11/7/2019)
Even with this loss, the Suns are off to a fast start this season, a welcome sight to the fans who have witnessed naught but crud since Steve Nash left. They had that one season where they missed the playoffs with 48 wins or something like that. That’s how you know it’s bad, when the…
