They key to next year?

I am not saying i am correct, but my opinion is that next year our next step is for your young players: DJ, henderson, derrick brown, Lexy, Tyrus. Must improve. Yes maybe one or tow little off season moves e.g. GET FLIP BACK! I dont know if we need a major change like some people say.

I agree with all that you said. And the biggest questions mark is Lexy. It would be simply sickening if it turns out we gave up a 1st for nothing. If he doesn't pan out, it will be another Adam Morrison fiasco - but at #19 rather than #3, which makes it a little more easy to swallow. But my gosh, our track record on drafts is astonishingly bad. It may turn out that the best player we drafted was a 2nd rounder in UPS!

Dudley was a decent draft.

The key for next year? Learn how to shoot the 3. Simple as that

Wow would youy guys shu up about Morrison. He hasn't panned out to be what we thought he was, but come on man....you cant compare him to Lexy. Adam averaged 11.8 ppg in his rookie year. That's good in my book. He was looking good in the summer of 07 and then got hurt in the preseason and was out for the year. He may have came out and played great in season 2. It does take some guys some time to find their game in the NBA.

Lexy has done NOTHING in the NBA thus far. Until he does, dont say he's another Morrison. Morrison did something, lex has done nothing and really isnt even part of the team.

Very true. And LB did nto give him a chance, traded him away, and look at his production now. Frustrating.

The key for next season is better frontcourt play. The Chandler/Diaw pairing is pathetic.

Every team (and fanbase) aspires for the young players on the roster to improve for the upcoming season and make legitimate contributions, but it rarely happens. You'll probably get one guy who surpasses expectations but that's about it.

IMO, Tyrus is essentially what he's going to be for a while - I'd look for Derrick Brown to be the guy who makes a substantial leap in the upcoming season.

Dudley said LB wasn't a good situation for him, and that as long as LB was there Dude couldn't maximize his talent. And PHX demanded he came wth J-Rich.

And AJ, if TC is healthy, he's perfect, Diaw, well, not so much.

I agree, but the caveat with TC is that he never stays healthy.

Diaw HAS to be moved.
