Bold predictions 2013.

[mdm692]

Guys the forum is dead and it's becoming slower than the AZ Cardinals forum . Speaking of the Cards watching what they did to start the season makes me believe the Suns can be a surprise team as well.

My top 3 bold predictions(indivually)
-Dragic becomes a top 10 PG

-Gortat becomes a top 5, maybe top 3, C

-Beasley becomes a top 5 SF

My top 3 bold predictions(team-wise)
-Suns become the highest scoring offense in NBA

-Suns make the playoffs as a 5-6 seed

-We take the season series from L.A. 3-1.

I could see Beasley and Dragic happening.
Gortat has peaked IMO.

My prediction:

Dragic has a better statistical season than Nash.

[mdm692]

I dont know man I actually think Gortat got better. Hes been competing in international play all summer long and hes been beasting. I know its against lesser competition but playing at the level hes been playing consistently can only help.

i think it's hard for this new team to score like the Suns of old.

i'm excited though as to how the new (and returning) guys will fare next season, i have high hopes for beaseley and high expectations for dragic

.....

we have nothing to talk about bro!


i do have some reservations for this upcoming season -- my girl is switching allegiance to LAL and following Steve Nash (fairweather fan) and my boy is gonna be cheering for Miami this season (bandwagon fan). they're lucky i love 'em!

If all of these things happen, it will make my life.

Phoenix's going to draft Brittney Griner. They'd be insane if they picked anyone else.

In case you didn't know who Griner is, she's a 6'8 center who plays at Baylor - led her team to the national championship and a 40-0 record last year.

Next year's lineup, provided everyone's healthy, will be:

Samantha Prahalis/Alexis Hornbuckle
Diana Taurasi/Brianna Gilbreath
Penny Taylor/Charde Houston
Candice Dupree/DeWanna Bonner/Lynette Kizer
Brittney Griner/Krystal Thomas

I can't wait. This team will be insane.

Bold predictions... hmm.

-Beasley will be decent
-Scola gets fined a few times for flopping
-Dudley leads team in 3FG%
-Dragic All-Star

[Huntey]

My bold predictions are:

Dragic will lead the team in assists and steals. He will be second in scoring with 18PPG.
Dragic will be an allstar.
Beasley will average over 20ppg and will hit 2 game winners.
Morris will average 10ppg and 6rpg
Wes Johnson will average 14ppg and will lead team in 3-point%
Marshall will average 4 assists in limited minutes.

Those are my bold predictions; my realistic ones aren't quite as nice. My 'worst case' predictions are terrible.

[SunsFan02]

Suns get two budding stars in Dragic and Beasley.
Overall record of 42-40.
8th seed.
Out in first round.
Trade all 5 picks in draft for a top 3 pick and get Nerlens Noel.

Dragic/Marshall
Harden/Johnson
Beasley/Dudley
Noel/Scola/Morris
Gortat/O'Neil

[king4day]

Is it too late to say Wes Johnson will have a career year???

Considering his camp, maybe he'll have a good year though.

Oh jeeze guys. I wish most of the positivity many of you are showing was rubbing off on me. Not happening though. I see a sub .500 team and missing the playoffs again. I hope most of you are right and I'm all freaking wrong though!

Bold predictions:
dragic out performs nash
michael beasley wins most improved player
suns struggle in the beginning but put together a good second half, barely miss the playoffs, but have something to build on.
we trade away someone for a 1st rounder at the trade deadline.
scola and dudley only get fined a couple times

realistic ones: the mix and match lineup goes bad(not as bad as some of the experts are sayin) Scola is our best player, and gets traded to a contender.
some progress but a long way to go
scola and dudley go broke from all of their flopping fines...
