The Phoenix Suns SHOULD TRADE Grayson Allen And Royce O’Neale In Favor Of A TRUE Power Forward!

1. I don't get why it's taken so personal? Grayson's going to lose minutes when Green comes back as you've said so let this be a win win situation and get legit Power Forward and improve…I do love Grayson Allen too tbh but I love winning more 🤷🏽😂

2. I agree it will haunt them if they don’t find an option for the power forward position

3. I agree if you metion anything about trading someone they make you out to be villain

4. For me it depends on which power forward you target.

5. Love the honesty Ben… Good take

6. Don't take it personally. Internet is a cesspool. I like your serious takes.

7. Being the 4 th or 5 th seed isn’t out of the question either!!!

8. As soon as they trade someone, people will say it was the best move.

9. First let me just say grayson "when healthy" and Royce have been and are really good for us. this should in no way be a gab at either of them. But we probably can't afford to keep all the people we need to keep so I think trading them for either a true 4 or as many picks as we can get is probably needed.

10. Give us Obi Topin, I think he is a such a good PF for us

11. No, thanks. 10 threes…. OK I’ll do it. That’s click baity hot takey. Dude, you’re not my Phoenix Suns therapist

12. Apply for a coaching position. Clearly you’ve got this

13. You can never have enough quality shooters. However for the right PF or player yes agreed. Good job Ben do not be a homer like EJ or REX Kiss ASS Chapman

14. Is the other guy ESPO LOL

15. Wait till next year. We don’t know if the other players will keep up their level of play.

16. I agree we need more size. I fir it funny this fanbase sees roses guys as untouchable but people legit think Booker is overpaid and we shops me him go to let Brooks and Gill be the guys

17. How about packaging Richards and Bouyea?

18. Yes. Yes. Yes. Trade Allen!!!!!!!

19. Trade Dillon Brooks while his value is still high and Richard’s for a REAL starting PF…won’t need Brooks when Green gets back. He keeps taking 3s and middys off the dribble like he’s that guy with a horrible shooting percentage…

20. Don't tell Eddie Johnson about this Ben 🤣 in fairness – I want to see how this all looks with Green playing and then revaluate at seasons end – I wanted a proper PF at the start of this season – was thinking Al Horford but that's in the past. We definitely need to shift some pieces and doing this we need to still consider our salary cap – don't think we can afford for a absolute gun like Markinen or Zion but definitely need to find a proper PF – is that Fleming ? I would put Royce, Richards, NHD and if we can land a good piece Grayson – that's 31+ million in salary on the trade market if not at the dead line at seasons end after we hopefully get to see what Green brings – what he does will make certain player obsolete and tradeable

21. How is this click bait or a hot take when it’s not even a remotely original idea? Every Suns fan forum is full of casual fans saying trade Royce and Allen. I’ve seen it regularly since the off-season. “Let’s get a power forward.” Brilliant. Who? You mentioned Collins. That would have been great 4 years ago but he’s peaked and not playing well in LA. Obi Topin? Please. That’s a pipe dream. No way the Pacers are giving up Topin. Especially not for Royce & Allen. So tell us all, who is this mysterious power forward that the Suns can get for Royce & Allen that will integrate with this team and move the needle?

22. Dude, you're too negative and your ideas are lame.. blah blah blah blah blah blah is all I hear, analyze another team, you're a Naysayer and you're exhausting!

23. I hoselty wanr Collins from Clippers he tuff and would fit

24. Stop trying to trade people the suns just got a lot better let them cook you get rid of the guys that you're talking and get the ones you want they'll be on the trade block again so what if they're roll players they are playing better than the last 10 yrs and first thing you come up with is trade someone like you did KD and Beal now they are gone you on this b/s again you flip flop so much So afraid of them succeeding with what they have stop go help the lakers with some trades

25. I think they should try to trade someone to get some draft capital for stage two of this build (this offseason) if there’s not a perfect fit at PF available at the deadline, but they should do something with the logjam.

26. I completely agree been said it for sure I’d trade to package Grayson and Royce maybe even Dunn even 😢he young we need a real 4 preferably between age 23-28 that can shoot it and fit within the formula

27. Nice straw manning the argument . Grayson and talent alike makes us winners. Trading him for chips and a bag of peanuts for a problem that doesn’t exist yet is very media take n click baity. Stop doubling down cuz ur pride n ego is hurt over ur take being so hot it got Eddie Johnson to call u a couch potato publicly. u and ur media aspirations don’t have to die on this hill, u just need to know that saying the fans invented Grayson Allen while saying Grayson can also land us Jaren Jackson Jr is absolutely asinine. The solution to the problem u invented doesn’t even exist, ur gonna have to be smarter with this. We have a developing Oso and a hibernating Malauch, on pace for an above average season without Jalen. Relax u #couchpotato

28. Grayson will be to important coming off the bench than Royce when Green comes back. We really do need a true PF

29. I’m one minute in and agree with the needing a PF Ben. We’re deep at almost every position but PF and PG. but I think we have enough ball handlers. I think if the right deal is on the table we would have to as much as I love Grayson, Royce,ohso, even Richards as a 3rd- center is good depth.

30. We need a Power Forward. Grayson and Nick Richards for Toppin or Collins, I'd do it (haven't even thought about salary matching). I think Ryan Dunn hit a wall offensively. Throw him in too. Hurts a little to say this because I love the role players this year. Royce was a baller against Wemby for that one game, so I'd keep him over Grayson.

31. Pls do a pod re Suns' PF trade target? Jalen Smith or Obi Toppin possible?

32. What's wrong w D brooks as the PF?

33. Royce und Allen sind Forwards, aber am Perimeter. Sie brauchen weitere Forwards oder es zünden Dunn, Oso und Fleming. Ich würde aber mit Williams und Oso als Center planen. Ich würde grundsätzlich einen weiteren Power Forward dazuholen. Du willst doch besser werden. Scouten. Analysieren was du brauchst. Rebounding und Scoring am Brett und in der Zone. Können das schon die vorhandenen Spieler? Oso ist fehlerfrei, aber sehr passiv. Dunn hat keine Offensive. Selber Punkte kreiert eigentlich nur Brooks. Den braucht man nochmal. Würde Dunn 10 Punkte und 10 Reboubds holen, wäre man flexibel. Man hat diese jungen Spieler Maluach, Flemibg und Dunn gedrafted. Jetzt sollte man sie entwickeln. Bei Oso sehe jch in den letzten 3 Spielen Fortschritte. Mark Willuams versteht sich sehr gut als Anspielstation und als Second Chance am Korb. Goodwin auch. Der ist aber eher Guard. Man kann Dunn auch so einsetzen, dass er sehr dominant nur in der Defensive auftritt. Dann müsste er aber viel mehr rebounden.
