Pathetic horrible loss this team is not poff caliber and that hurts me to say

I even fell zzz before gm ended and what a shocker another choke job.....

Just so many bad seasons as a az sports fans im frustrated

And even when book comes back problems won't be much better

Wonder if suns can make any trades....

When the Suns traded for Chris Paul trade they traded a protected 2022 first round pick. When that pick conveys is uncertain. The Suns can't trade this year's first round pick because theoretically it could convey next season. The Suns can't be without a first round pick two drafts in a row. Also it's uncertain when the 2022 pick conveys so that leaves them in limbo trading a first round pick.

Of course the Suns can trade players with salaries that are close to matching. Also the Suns could trade one of their players to gain a first round pick.

The Suns do have second round picks to trade but that is a bad habit they have gotten into.

Also the Suns have a minimum exception where they could absorb a waived player close to $4 million.

Here is the protection on the traded first round pick.

Does he? He sure hasn't shown it yet.

Jalen has only played in four games this season. He still needs to get in shape and learn the game.

And its boring to watch

this. They aren’t great athletes running up and down the floor wowing with dunks AND they’re not great shooters. There’s practically nothing to hang your hat on collectively as a team.

I don't care. It's about winning. However, when you are not getting either? It is torture. I don't care if it's half court or running up and down if there is winning involved.
