Now that was a blatant travel. NBA is such a joke.

Don't know what game you're watching, and, I haven't watched an NBA game in a couple three years, but I agree with you, the NBA is a joke.

I was commenting on the Mikal Bridges game winner posted above.

We have something to look forward to…

No 'trust the process'? What's next for the Phoenix Suns

The Suns are in danger of missing the play-in tournament with the most expensive roster in the NBA.

Beal is “open to considering other possibilities” this summer, but he had no interest in a midseason trade thanks to his no-trade clause

Three players this season are averaging at least 25 points while shooting +40% on threes:
Nikola Jokic
Anthony Edwards
Kevin Durant

Why?

 

[Phrazbit]

Why?

Bragging about his no-trade clause, after the trade deadline, while the team is circling the drain, and when he isn't injured he's playing poorly and seems disengaged.

Without context it's a nothing burger. Who cares? At this point it doesn't matter.

 

[Superbone]

The world is Beal's oyster and we're just suffering in it.

 

[Chaplin]

It's not Beal's fault that Washington was stupid. And I know it sucks to think this way, but he doesn't go out of his way to deliberately get injured. Geez.

I didn't hear the entire thing and it probably required context. However, this quote alone is in poor taste to say the least. It's not his fault the Wizards were stupid or his fault the Suns were stupid enough to make one of the worst trades in history. However, being a tool about it? If that is what he did? That's all on Beal.

 

[Superbone]

It is not. It's also not his fault that Phoenix was stupid enough to take him and his NTC on.

 

[Chaplin]

It is not. It's also not his fault that Phoenix was stupid enough to take him and his NTC on.

That's true too. When Beal has been healthy, he has been a legit member of the Big 3 and on some nights, our best all around player. It's just that we are paying all that money for a guy that will barely play 40 games a season. I love Brad as a player, he just isn't playing enough.

Don’t think I can remember a player with less competitive spirit but we’re the dumb ones for trading for a career empty stat guy that’s never won anything and has a no trade clause. Jokes on us.

 

[Phrazbit]

I’m not saying it’s his fault, but being so glib about the situation given what is happening with the team and him in particular is a terrible look.

 

[leclerc]

If Beal has such a low value then do not trade him.

Get good return on Durant and maybe Booker, get young athletic and hungry guys on the team, and give Beal the green light, but let guys like Gillespie run the team. Do not put in a system where it is get the ball to Beal and clear out

I'm completely sold on trading Durant, Booker and any other veteran that returns value - even if that value is just cap space as long as we don't give up future assets to make it happen. Going forward, if we can keep Beal upright, give him every opportunity to look like a superstar so that we can then get value in return for him. But more likely, he'll be out so much that we will just be raiding the G League for players until we restock with youth and picks and we'll just have to live with him.
