S1E42 - Offseason chirp / Extensions

Published: Aug. 12, 2021, 7 a.m.

It is officially 2021 Suns Mode Offseason.... season????
All joking aside, the Suns Mode podcast gets back on its true footing much like the Suns have done to start the offseason. There is a master plan. Many have called it something dumb or cliche, like a process or a scheme. This is a master plan. While the Suns have been quiet compared to other teams making splash moves, they have made moves to cement themselves as a title contending team for the 2021-22 season. 

This week on Suns Mode, we talk about the deals that the Suns have made over the past week, and how they will serve as supplemental pieces on the Suns roster. We also explore a couple of the options left in the free agent market, and the risks associated with said options. Possible acquisitions of players via trade are also discussed. The other main topic of the episode revolves around the Suns' contract extension scenarios; more specifically why they have not happened yet.

Surrounding topics for this week.
- Devin Booker and Team USA Basketball win Gold! 
- Update on possible free agent targets discussed in last week's episode of Suns Mode.
- Up to date picture of the Suns active roster.
- Spending options available to the Suns
- Three takeaways from the first two games of Summer Suns action, setting the tone for the final three games.

Tune in for another episode next week on Thursday. The end of the offseason is inevitable, but it has NOT happened yet! So we stay rolling! We will have some more Summer Suns to talk about and what the Suns continue to do with the offseason. With one roster spot left, the Suns are really in a good position to place the cherry on top. Whatever they do, Suns Mode will be here for you.

Remember to spread love and #ValleyExcellence

GOOOOOOOO SUNS <3
