Suns 2024-2025 Season Discussions

[95pro]

Suns are going to have some lame slogan for the second half of the season like “together”

 

[Proximo]

kd was "blindsided"

Come on.

He can't be so out of it that he thinks this team with the highest payroll in the league, that is vastly underperforming might want to make changes.

 

[Chaplin]

At what point do the fans start booing Ishbia at home games? We have become a dumpster fire and laughingstock with this roster construction in less than 3 years

Never.

Suns fans, especially those that go to games, aren't critical enough.

 

[Cheesebeef]

But they addressed the elephant? I'm so dejected that Ishbia decided to listen to KD's request that he not be traded. Giving KD what he wants got us here.

Yup. Shoulda traded him for what was apparently a pretty good haul from the Warriors.

 

[Covert Rain]

That would have been the best move for the team for sure. I am just convinced we are not getting anywhere with Booker either.

 

[Hoop Head]

When was the last time you attended a Suns game in Phoenix? Sarver was regularly boo'ed. The only time he wasn't that I saw firsthand was Nash's ROH induction and given the atmosphere, it was fine. He wasn't cheered. Dirk got more applause than Sarver did that night.

Every other game I was at where Sarver was, he was boo'ed whenever he'd make his presence known. He stopped sitting courtside for a long time because of the jeers. They weren't Philadelphia style but it was definitely noticeable to anyone in attendance.

That was a fake tweet, I believe. I shared it here somewhere.

Damn
Too good to be true

 

[sdscard4]

Need to put Beal back in the starting line up . Put your best 5 out and hoop. Plumlee should never be in the game. I'd rather have Frank the Tank

 

[Suns_fan69]

Another thought: When has it ever worked out for a team that traded all of their young players, picks, and swaps? Brooklyn for Paull Pierce and KG? Fail. Brooklyn for Harden? Fail. Clippers for PG? Fail. Houston for Harden? Maybe

The only one I can think of that worked was KG from Minny to Boston

 

[leclerc]

Beal has been good off the bench actually. He's better when he's the main man and don't have to share it with Book and KD. Yay. Who's next on the schedule?

 

[Beaver]

Simmons after bought out? Can rebound and pass. Doesn't need to shoot.

zero chance even if we wanted to

We have enough guys that fade under adversity.

 

[JCSunsfan]

Ha. I am glad I did not pay attention. Watching a sinking ship try to figure out how to sink slower.

 

[Finito]

Ramona Shelburne is saying the Suns locker room and culture is toxic

 

[Germz249]

Okay if the locker room is "Toxic" then why would KD not want out? Why did Booker express he wants to remain with one team? Why did Beal say he wanted to be here?

The whole "Toxic" talk just seems odd when everyone had a chance to get traded but wanted to remain.

Outside of maybr Nurk.. Players could have requested to be traded but no one did.

Yep. To whom? Nurk? Yeah, probably. But everyone locked him out of everything long ago.

Yuck anyway. At least we arent the Mavs. Rich impatient guys make bad owners, just like cheapskate numbskulls.

Hopefully Ishbia has learned.

Oh ok sure thing. Everything is all good nothing to see here

I don't care. I want to watch good basketball. I don't want to hear a thing about the girlie locker room rumors.

I don't think you're taking "toxic" the right way. It can be toxic if we have a bunch of coddled rich babies who are cool with going through the motions for top dollar.

 

[Germz249]

Who is saying there is nothing to see here?? Look at what has happened in the last couple of weeks.

They were getting calls for KD from Golden State and KD said no.

Beal was ready to waive his NTC

Booker's comments on being with one team after becoming the Sun's all time scorer..


They all had outs.. if it was toxic don't you think they would have left? All 3 didn’t request a trade.

If it was that toxic they would have left. They would have asked to be traded..

Maybe I just see the good in people and feel everyone is trying their best but mistakes happen.

With how we are doing right now I feel like yea we are trying but we just suck.

The Suns cannot sign a buyout player that made more than the Mid-Level Exception.
