  1. Never an easy path for us huh lol

    Maybe the Wizards have interest in Ayton, could be posturing from them because Suns having Beal and Booker as a backcourt means they split playmaking duties without a real PG

    I still think Lowry’s massive expiring is more helpful for Washington unless Beal waives his NTC for the Suns

  2. How… don’t the Suns not have any first round picks for the next 4 or 5 years because of the KD trade?

  3. If they’re offering Ayton I don’t see a path that doesn’t include Herro, but I feel pretty good being in the top-2 with a team that already traded all their picks.

  4. Come on Brad hop on over to Miami, no state tax, probably first option shot counts and profile, a great coach and system, one of the best organisations, and one that was just in the NBA finals.

    I don’t understand why people keep trying to hitch their wagon to KD or Kyrie when it clearly doesn’t work anymore, they don’t “want the moment” anymore, just an easy stacked team.

  5. Could be a smokescreen to get the heat to throw in Tyler. Honestly don’t see how beal would even fit on the suns. They’d have cooked cp3 and no bigs to fill out the roster

  6. Seems like a negotiating tactic by the Wizards to get the Heat to offer more. Suns dont make much sense unless the Wizards love Ayton..

    Feels like it’s really just the Heat and the Wizards are just trying to squeeze a bit more from them

  7. Suns need defense and depth lol. Not another scorer to take the ball away from Booker and KD

  8. So it’s not about picks with the Wizards. I’m thinking they’re trying to get Tyler out of the Heat with this.

  9. Beal stop being a bitch and use that NTC to build a better roster in Miami. C’mon man

  10. This makes no sense for the Suns. That team isn’t winning a title. They have their wing scorers. Offensive firepower is not the problem there…

  11. How does this make the Suns closer to a ring. Why do they need another scorer they already have KD and Book and scoredlike 115 a game.

    is trading your already extremely limited depth for Beal moving the needle? If we lose out to phoenix that’s be such a bummer

  12. I can respect the Suns trying to swing for the fences knowing they’re in their window, but in what world does the Booker Beal Durant trio work? Their issues already are depth and defense and they’d have to sacrifice salary and probably Ayton to take on Beal. I don’t get their interest here.

  13. If the Suns are a true threat, it’s just idiotic they would consider this.

    Also, if you’re Beal, you’re an idiot for considering the Suns.

    He would literally sacrifice all of his touches for Booker/KD. Offensive juggernaut? Sure. But they lost against the Nuggets for every reason but scoring.

    In Miami, it just makes sense. He fits in exactly for what we need.

    Am I saying I want him? Sure, but depends what I’m giving up.

    His contract is a nightmare, but if you can get him for not giving up anyone truly valuable, I do it.
