He's beloved in Phoenix but he's just not a winning player. Couldn't even make the playoffs with Durant

Went to a finals as the number 1

And who was the engine of that team?

And even more mind-boggling he regressed after being around all the greatness in last year's Olympics

On one hand I get reupping. Great city , great weather in Phoenix. You're the bonafide number one. No need to keep going team to team like Durant chasing rings. However, the Phoenix owner has not shown he knows how to build a winning organization. Probably one of the worst owners in the NBA.

Nothing great about 118 degree weather. California has great weather

he's yet to make the leap. his numbers have been roughly the same the last 7 years(but worse last year). when he scores big they almost always lose. i've been watching him his whole career and i'm still not convinced.

Idk what leap he’s supposed to take though. What other 2 guard has made it as deep in the playoffs as he has as a #1? It’s all about team building and phx has failed on that since the finals team. Kd and book played great together. Team was terrible.

Ant and mitch are his comp and they haven’t done what he has. He’s been just as good or better than them other than last year. They’d both fail with what Phoenix built around book and Kd too.
