Why the fukk would the Suns take the Bosnian center over Hood and Levine? They needs wings and shooting and just took a Euro center with the 5th pick last year that they're still developing.

By far the best player available. Period.

I get why they might not want him. style of play, etc.

But he would be QUITE a come-up for them.

I'm glad you have an opinion but if he falls, they are taking him.
He's not a franchise-changing talent that you take no matter what and completely throw out your needs and your assets. I guarantee you he's not even on their board.

I don't agree :manny:
Nurkic may or may not go higher. If anyone gets him, it's because they traded up with Phoenix, not because Phoenix took him outright.

Phoenix in a way has too many assets. Somehow they gotta find a target to cash them in. Otherwise it's just a clusterfukk of young guys and that usually doesn't end well either financially or as far as assets are concerned.

Okay but we're talking about your mock here. If he's so good why do you even have him falling to 14th?

Because the teams above have a blend of talent/need above him that drops after that pick. There is a gap between Gary Harris and Rodney Hood imo. Also, he is a potential stash guy which may make him fall int such a situation.

No, you just forgot about Phoenix or have no idea about their situation. Hell, Minny right ahead of the Suns has 1000 times more reason to take a Jusef Nurkic than Phoenix does.

If they stay at 14 they're taking a shooter, period.

How about the two I already mentioned that you have going immediately after the Suns take the center they dont want or need?

Lol clueless

They aren't taking Lavine. Not only is he not a shooter but he won't see an NBA floor for a few years :laff::laff::laff::laff::laff:

Nurkic is in another tier than Hood. If they want a wing they grab 1 at the end of the 1st :ohhh:


Idiots step up and get beat down.

They could take him for the same reason you have them taking Nurkic. Just asset compiling (and if you look at the Suns' backcourt, not a whole lot behind Bledsoe /Dragic
