    I see that you're a big fan of the Suns, and I'd love if you could stop by a site that I work on and make the Suns' pick for them in our fan interactive mock draft! Thanks!

    Also, go Sox! Great to see the start that they're off to. Lets hope they keep it rollin.

    For the 2013 draft, it is weaker than the 200 draft? Who was drafted, Kenyon Martin? Anyway, do you like Marcin Gortat as your center. My reasoning for the Cavaliers making the playoffs is because they`ll draft Burke or a dark-horse Gorgui Dieng and Irving will become a superstar and Waiters will improve greatly. I think the Cavs should draft Gorgui Dieng is because they don`t have Anderson Varejao healthy. And he is getting older.

    I want Smith to stay and re-sign Korver and Teague and possibly re-sign Shelvin Mack or Earl Watson or a 2nd roundpick, then get Al Jefferson or trade for Kosta Koufos for the starting C. I would trade Mike Scott and maybe a future 2nd round pick for Koufos. Then keep Larry Drew or if we don`t we get Mike Rice (I kid) and somehow get John Calipari from Kentucky.

    I really hope the Hawks beat the Pacers and the Celtics come back and win the series so we don`t have to face the Knicks. I think there is no possible way we beat New York unless Carmelo is quiet and keep Steve Novak from being a 3 pt machine and prevent Raymond Felton from going into the paint. Assuming we beat the Knicks and Bulls upset the Heat in 6 or 7 games, we can kick the Bulls from the Playoffs and meet Golden State in the NBA Finals. I am doing incredible wishing here, but it could happen. Then the Hawks keep Stephen Curry from being a monster from the 3 pt line and keep Klay Thompson inconsistent. Then Al Horford will be a machine from mid-range and Josh Smith keeps hitting those jumpers, we`ll be okay. Devin Harris will have to be the Devin Harris he was with the Nets in his all-star year and Jeff Teague keeps doing his penetrating and kicking to an open Al Horford with a 16 footer or kick it to Kyle Korver with a swish.

    Are you satisfied with Goran Dragic as your point guard? If Channing Frye ever comes back and Michael Beasley starts being a consistent scorer and keeps his attitude in check, you will be good. Do you want to keep Dragic as PG for the future and satisfied with Shannon Brown? The Suns look decent on paper, but they don`t win on the court. Who do you want to keep and kick out of the Suns. Keep P.J. Tucker? Kick him out? Keep Marcin Gortat?

    This is my prediction for next year`s playoffs
    East: 1: Heat 2: Bulls 3: Knicks 4: Pacers 5: Hawks 6: Bucks 7: Celtics 8: Cavaliers

    West: 1: Thunder 2: Spurs 3: Grizzlies 4: Nuggets 5: Warriors 6: Rockets 7: Jazz 8: Timberwolves

    I don`t see the Lakers making the playoffs with Steve Nash getting into his 40`s and Bryant returning from injury.

    Do you agree with my playoff predictions?

    Post me back as soon as you can.

    Cheers ;)

    Do you want Beasley on your team? What kind of off-season do you want?

    I made my own myplayer in NBA 2k13 and Ryan Simmons (My name and the MyPlayer name) and Channing Frye lit it up. Every single shot he took was a three and swish.

    The Suns do not need a forward named Michael Beasley. Was Channing Frye severly missed?

    Do you like the Hawks?

    I would love to see Andersen doing a dunk and flapping "his wings" and the Hawk scream going on during flapping "his wings"
