On the eve of the trade deadline, the weekly report will come after all, right? It’s been a long time since I chatted with you about what happened in the Suns recently, what news is there before the trade deadline, etc. Here I will use this weekly report that I haven’t seen for a long time, and Let’s update you on the recent recent developments of the Sun that are worth mentioning.
First of all, of course, we have to congratulate Devin Booker. After winning the Western Conference Player of the Week last week, he averaged 30.0 points, 4.4 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 53.9% shooting from the field and 40.0% from three-point range earlier. He was selected as the best player in the Western Conference in January, but what everyone is more concerned about must be before the end of the game against the Nets earlier. After Booker made a three-pointer in front of his old classmate Mikal Bridges that officially entered garbage time, the game officially entered garbage time. The familiar three-point gesture on the bridge appeared. I had been waiting all night for this big scene. (error)
Of course, although I believe that anyone who knows a little bit about the Suns should know it, but in order to avoid other people’s misunderstanding, I would like to explain it a little bit. When Mikal Bridges was in the Suns, he had a very, very good relationship with everyone, and he also created a very good relationship. There are many celebrations, and the friendship does not seem to disappear just because of being traded. In our opinion, Booker’s action is the pattern of very familiar friends losing each other, and there is no need to over-interpret it.

Will the tribute video be shown?
Because NBA players come and go, it is not easy to find players who will stay with a team for the whole life. When a player leaves the team, if he has indeed made some contributions in the past, after he leaves the team, When returning to the home court where they played for the first time, many teams will arrange a tribute video before or during the game, or even conduct a small ceremony to commemorate each other’s past cooperation. As the players change, It is becoming more and more frequent, and there are more and more such cases.
However, when the Suns visited the Nets this week, that is, on the eve of Kevin Durant’s first return to the Nets’ home game after being traded, a local Nets writer mentioned, perhaps just in casual conversation, whether the Nets should consider giving Durant a haircut. A video of thanks, unexpectedly Durant himself left a message “Please don’t, that night would have been better without that thing” unexpectedly triggered a discussion. Could it be that Durant has some dissatisfaction with the Nets and doesn’t even want this? However, when Durant was asked about this question in an interview later, he clearly stated the reason why he did not want the Nets to do this:
“Why do I deserve what they do?” Kevin Durant said. “Frankly, just because of my fame? I’m just another average player who doesn’t deserve the extra attention. When the game starts, everyone is watching. It’s about me, but the game belongs to every player on the field and it has nothing to do with me personally. I was there for three or four years and I didn’t accomplish anything worth celebrating. That’s how I feel.”
“I don’t expect people to praise me or praise me,” Durant said. “I didn’t even mention it myself. It was just casually said by someone somewhere. I just gave them my opinion. I don’t think I deserve it.” What kind of commemorative video? I didn’t stay there long enough and didn’t do enough. I didn’t leave any long-lasting impact. The most I remember is probably Game 5 of the playoffs against the Bucks (the 49-point game). 17 rebounds and 10 assists) is worth mentioning.”
But having said that, I don’t know if the Nets had this plan in the first place, or if they just went along with it now that it has become a topic. In short, the tribute video was released that day. By the way, the game just happened to start. After that, the number of games Durant played with Devin Booker and Bradley Beal officially surpassed the number of games he played with James Harden and Kyrie Irving in the Nets… (Eh)

Amare Stoudemire’s Two Regrets
During this week’s broadcast of the Suns-Heat game, eagle-eyed fans should have seen that the person serving as a ball commentator on the sidelines looked familiar. It was former Suns star Amare Stoudemire, who had also been with the Heat in his career. He also accepted an interview with Arizona Sports that day. What’s interesting is that in the interview, he talked about two things he regretted in his career.
“First of all, I wish I had known the rule that when there is a conflict on the field, you can’t put your feet on the field.” Amare said: “Things were beyond my control. I didn’t know about this rule at the time. I believe Boris Diaw did too. I don’t know, that’s always been something we wanted to look back on.”
“The other thing is, I wish I had the opportunity to stay in Phoenix and spend my entire career there, and that was always my ultimate goal, to raise my family at the Biltmore, and I’m ready to Phoenix continued my career and ended my career there.” Amare said: “Those two moments are the scenes I most want to come back to.”
Unfortunately, there are no ifs in life, and there are some things that are useless to overthink. I won’t extend this topic here. In short, I welcome Amare to attend similar public events more often in the future. At this stage of life, it is quite satisfying to see old friends. One thing that makes people happy.

Best wishes to Ricky Rubio
Ricky Rubio, an old friend who admitted a few months ago that he was temporarily away from the court due to psychological reasons, even terminated his contract with the Cavaliers a while ago, and announced the end of his NBA career and returned to Europe to rest, issued another statement earlier this week, and this time It seems to be good news. It seems that his physical and mental condition has made great progress:
“Hi everyone, I want to say these words because I am in the final stages of recovery.
I’ve always been someone who tries to stay positive but sometimes I lie to myself and say to myself ‘you have no right to feel that way’ but that can hold me back and if you lie to yourself eventually it becomes It sucks, like what happened to me, so people have to be true to themselves.
I get goosebumps thinking about those days when everything was dark and something was bothering me and I couldn’t get over it but now after receiving the help I needed I’m so much better and I’m building myself up from the inside not the outside .
I’ve been thinking about this for weeks, and after a few weeks of physical and mental work, I feel sharp and strong enough to see what it feels like with the ball in my hands.
My next step is to ask FC Barcelona if I can train with them without any obligation and without disrupting their plans for the season, but before that I would like to thank you in advance for your help and understanding of my situation.
Finally, I want to thank everyone who has shown me respect and support throughout this process and for respecting my privacy during this journey. 』
Although he is no longer in the Suns, as an old friend, I am still very happy that Rubio can gradually come out of the haze. Unfortunately, it seems that he will not return to the NBA to play, otherwise his skill set will really be used by the current Suns. Having said that, , Rubio’s record in the year he was in the Suns was not as good as in the following seasons, but when we watched the game or they played on the court, we felt that it was a really happy season. Maybe this is the difference between different stages. Different worries.
