Griffin is garbage. He averaged under ten points a game in college with only five rebounds, thats with his brother dominating the post. Lou is way more athletic and skilled. The suns have been making some poor choices the last several years. If Taylor had a different last name he would be trying out in Turkey right now.
We need a backup point guard bad. Nash is eventually gonna slow down with all the wear and tear. Will Bynum would be perfect for the system and eventually as a replacement. We did get bigger and more athletic which could help on the defensive end, where the most improvement is needed.

You are wrong about Taylor Griffin. He is a great basketball player. He understands the game and the role that OU asked him to play. Griffin's father, Tommy, coached Taylor and Blake and both are excellent young men with alot of talent. You will appreciate having Taylor on the Suns' team. He is a hard worker and an intelligent young money that will make the community glad his is part of this team!

These guys were talking about how Griffin is like Lou with his energy. I think, if this is true, then he could be great. The Suns have been in need for a long time of guys who are quality role players that will play hard despite their deficiencies. I dont think this is a bad pick at all. Especially not a D- pick. Sometimes you gotta take a chance on a guy like this.

The truth is that Suns and Warriors have been talking about Amare for days leading up to draft. Many options were discussed, including the #7 pick which landed Curry. Warriors were shocked to have Curry fall to them and Nelson does not want to give him up. He would have given up the #7 pick because he thought no way he could get Curry.

F- on Curry. He will not be a good NBA player.
