Suns trade for Beal

[Mainstreet]

This is starting to feel a bit like a trip to the proctologist.

Whatever you do, don't bend over.

Devin Booker... Steve Nash... Goran Dragic... Amare Stoudemire

Long long ago Book is the only guy in forever! Nash wasn’t good until we traded back for him and Stat was so long ago, Dragic wasn’t ever anything worth a damn while here… different era your referring too and all those players led the Suns where exactly? Zilch not even a finals appearance! Jones already at least built a team that made it all the way, let’s give him a chance now with an owner willing to spend!

I think we already did, lol. Better wrap this up soon before they ask for more.

Um, Ayton, Cam Johnson, and Mikal are all pretty useful players.

If Ishbia plays it just right we won't have to worry about those stankin draft picks - we're talking straight up cash is king free agency à la carte baby - and if a few of those top dollar free agents don't work out we can trade them for draft picks - because where there's a billionaire there's a way

Maybe I should have posted this tweet on this thread.

We got Bradley Beal for CP3’s corpse and a bunch of 2nd round picks and pick swaps that likely never happen.

How that’s getting bent over is beyond me. You know what was getting bent over? Losing a Game 7 at home by 30 points to a mediocre team.

The sentimentality towards a past that had back to back ugly endings and fear of a different future boggles my mind.

Agreed, and mine used to work for Rotor-Rooter.

Gotta credit JJ for CP3's value. That contract he negotiated with CP3 was the bees knees. Everyone seems to want it.

Would it be fair to say those two seasons bumped uglies?

 

[BirdGangThing]

CP3 playing for Golden State would be good for us

Same way Ayton playing for any of our rivals would be good for us

 

[Muggz]

So far Ishbia has impressed. Me anyway.
I have no reason to think he's going to start poopin the bed now.

Not entirely. There was a ton of fun basketball that we got to watch. But end of the day, I’m a fan who wants a title and believe that team was capped, especially with CP3’s cliff dive AFTER turning 37.

Suns didn’t draft Bridges, Ayton sucks, Cam not hear anymore but was decent Book is the only star this team has drafted in forever…

 

[Mainstreet]

The Suns include approximately $3.5 million in the trade for Beal.

The Sixers drafted Bridges for the Suns, the trade was agreed to before the pick, it was a de facto Suns pick.

Why? We all know Bridges is a solid player, he is not a superstar and not even close to KD just let it go. And we didn’t draft bridges anyway…

We wouldn’t have beaten the Clips with Bridges/Cam on this team. Please stop

Conjecture it was a trade after the fact, he himself even thought he was being drafted by his hometown team.

I said when we got CP3 pace would be a problem. Point Book is a viable option now.
Rather have a quick PG with good court vision/IQ even a rookie one that can grow on the 2nd unit.

Agree, and I think the PG we just got in the trade with Washington should already be ahead of Payne if he is even on the team anymore…

Any chance the Spurs are drafting for us tonight?

Keep forgetting about him.

 

[nashman]

Keep forgetting about him.

And Vogel gonna love him, plays tenacious defense, we don’t need a scoring PG the scoring is taken care of…

His mom worked for the Sixers also right?
