That is, unfortunately, what I’m saying.

I like those two kids a lot also. I think they could both be regular rotation players with upside moving forward.
Dunn for sure, Oso while I like his attitude and hustle, I'm really not sure he will ever be more than a backup.

Am I the only one who doesn’t care about our 2031 pick. I mean since we drafted Booker.. outside of Mikal.. what has our first pick really done for us? I just feel like with crappy GM who can’t draft for crap, the pick is not much value to us.

The odds are greatly against JJ still being here when 2031 rolls around. And Ishbia has brought back the G League and hopefully is going to undo what Sarver did to our scouting staff. But regardless, it would be shortsighted to throw away a pick because we've wasted picks in the past. That pick has value and we need all the value we can get. I'm okay with trading it if it helps our future, I just hate the possibility we'll trade it for a short term fix that won't fix a damned thing.

It all depends on what that draft pick brings in return. Who knows what the Suns will look like in 2031.

If it brought the Suns a player in trade who could help them contend for a championship, then one seriously has to look at it.

Phoenix chose the NOW when they traded for Kevin Durant.

I don't want to wait another 10 years, likely more, for another window to open.

Do the names Camara or Dunn ring a bell?

Gambo is on crack, the Heat would never, ever do a Beal for Butler swap, especially without us throwing a pick in. Beal is worth less than nothing, hell, I think just to get rid of Beal we would have to attach a lot of value.

I like Beal the dude, and as a player he tries hard and has his moments, but even when healthy, that contract was awful, and he's basically never healthy, and the injuries have taken a serious toll on his production.

In a league where Ben Simmons contract is expiring and Durant has yet to get extended, Bradley Beal is the worst contract in the sport.

Gambo initially reported the Heat don’t have any interest in Beal. Is he saying the opposite now?
