Ayy man if Jalen Green and Jordan Goodwin shoot like THIS all season the Suns are winning 55-60 games

2140

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

Jalen Green already up to 10 points on 4-of-5 shooting in the first 5 minutes of the game. Fun player to watch when he's got it rolling!

KHAMAN MALUACH VS. VICTOR WEMBANYAMA AT 9:30 PM IN MY TIME ZONE LET'S GOOOOOOO

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

My bad 😂 Doesn’t sound serious though, so that reprieve may be short-lived

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

I've still got questions about the starting five, but the Suns' second unit should be one of the best benches in the NBA. Over at @sports360az.bsky.social, I wrote about what makes this group so fun and formidable: bit.ly/4yA9V3l

It's preseason, so it's whatever, but a liiiittle too much Jamaree Bouyea here. Suns down 3 after leading by as many as 19

Yeah I think Koa Peat is ready for NBA physicality lol

1120

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

No starters here in the second half, which means we should see plenty of Rasheer Fleming and hopefully a good dose of Koa Peat too!

I know a lot of teams talk about this, but the Suns definitely look like a team that spent all summer playing together

Just a reminder that Jordan Goodwin led the entire NBA in offensive rebounds among players 6-foot-4 and under last season. 3 offensive boards in 3 minutes in the Suns' first preseason game sounds about right!

051

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Nice patient finish from Khaman Maluach under the rim to get the contact and finish. We don't need to talk about that 3-point attempt

030

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Video reviews this long should be illegal in general, but in preseason, they should be a fireable offense. Let's keep it moving, stripes

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Post-China trip Dillon Brooks still very similar to regular Dillon Brooks. Scuffle No. 1 and technical foul No. 1 comes in preseason game No. 1

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

I’d be surprised. Collin Gillespie is just plain better, I’d want nothing to do with him eating up backcourt minutes off the bench over CG

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

I feel like this week's episode of South Park was made specifically for me. No notes, absolute perfection

030

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

"No more technicals!" Dillon Brooks wants to incorporate what he learned in China this summer into his approach for the Suns. But is it actually possible? For @sports360az.bsky.social, I wrote about Villainy and Taoism, flow states and forced outcomes, yin and yang: bit.ly/3Tzy9eY

I promise I don't just say this about every new game I play, but yeah, Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave is another GOTY contender. I've sunk hours into this game and I'm only partially through the first of the four protagonists. Insane amount of depth, lore and great characters

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

The thing is, you have to actually show contrition and make amends to earn a second chance, especially for something so serious. Even Jesus requires repentance before forgiveness and absolution are possible lmao

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

The 2026-27 NBA season is unofficially underway! From heightened expectations for Jalen Green to some serious Khaman Maluach buzz, here are my 5 biggest takeaways from Suns Media Day this morning:

The Phoenix Suns held their annual Media Day Monday morning, serving as the unofficial tipoff for the 2026-27 NBA season! Unlike in years pa

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

That’s your prerogative. But I’d recommend keeping that to yourself, because there is ZERO reason to believe he’s a changed man unless you’re looking for a reason to support your favorite team without feeling guilty about it, and telling other fans how to feel about it ain’t it either

030

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 29/09/2026

Genuine question: based on what, does he seem to understand the gravity of what he did? The empty platitudes during his intro press conference? Getting to resume his multimillionaire career after a brief time away? That’s not how true change or forgiveness works. If you don’t care about what he did,

130

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

No problem! Apologies, tried my best to make it clear, but the text only does so much in cases like that compared to actual video lol

020

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Nah, it was more so an addition to clarify the scope of what came before. As in, “Nobody should condone that behavior…anywhere in this entire country” type of thing.

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

"Off the court, what Miles did was unacceptable, cannot be condoned by anyone - in America, hopefully. That's just completely off. Now, he's been held accountable. He's shown remorse. And we have standards here in Phoenix" Mat Ishbia's full thoughts on the Miles Bridges trade:

Suns aren't live streaming Media Day, huh?

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

It probably will; it’s massive. It was the same for me with Three Houses. But it’s worth it whenever you’re able to find the time! Feels like a legitimate GOTY candidate

020

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Loving it so far! Only about 10-15 hours in on the first route, but the story and characters are great, so I’m excited to dive into the other paths. Impressive and truly massive scope for this one

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Virus mode in that game was so much fun. My friends and I played it nonstop lol

Gerald Bourguet @geraldbourguet.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

Narrowing it down to just 9 was impossible. I could’ve honestly just picked 9 Zelda or Mario games, but I tried to not to be boring lol
