Denver beats OKC without 3 starters. We have 2 starters out and we can't even stay competitive

Great to see the last tweet from Dillon brooks where he’s essentially saying thank god I didn’t get sent to the suns.

I think you might be reading too much into his Go-Grizz tweet. Not that it would be a shocker for a player to not want to be sent here right now.

Maybe the Grizzlies got cold feet and thought the Suns would let it go?

I would not be surprised at this Main—trying to take advantage of a rookie GM. There is no point in jumping to the conclusion that Suns mgmt are idiots in EVERYTHING that happens.

I can't believe Memphis thought the Suns would take this pile of crap without Dillon Brooks.

The NBA post game dhow on ESPN is just lampooning the Suns. Woj was on and said he can't remember anything so crazy before.

How can Igor begin to look Ariza in the face?

Weird to have a conversation about the health of him with another team then. This thing just reaches new levels of bizarre

And Dillon Brooks is out injured so it makes perfect sense to check his medical records.

You dont think suns fans on this board (and Twitter) are overrating Trevor Ariza's value a tad?

I do... a tad. Fans here always overrate our own talent. But I sure as hell don't think those that asvethey're going so completely moronic that they're demanding an All-Star in return and that's the only way Jones can succeed. throwing that horse-manure into the debate to try and undercut the other side of the argument is just flat out stupid.

Because it was James Jones doing the deed. As a coach you say, "You know I love you. It's management."

With the sweating emoji? Sure seems like a “whew, that was close” tweet.

This whole fiasco tonight has really made me laugh but also reminded me that Ariza has always been a solid role player at best and our most likely return is going to be late draft picks a platter of players centered around an Austin Rivers type

me too. the second the first tweet dropped, I looked at the Wiz roster and texted ouchie that it had to be Rivers and Fillers.

if we're going to get much else for Ariza, it's either going to be wayyyyyyy down the line for a team that's DESPERATE for him due to injury, or we will have sweetened the pot with a pick of some sort. otherwise, I think teams, especially at this point, can try and sweat us out.
