[@SoLCollectR]

Partiality reassembles the Valley Suns. Trade Grayson for Cam Johnson. Royce for Kelly Oubre and bring back CP3

[@Lucky00-00]

I think Coach Bud has not got his fair share of the blame. He has guard heavy lineups that makes us small and he lacks relationships with the players that’s big for a coach to have

[@dbass131]

Yeah, Bud's been dodging blame the whole time, letting his players take the blame instead. It's sickening, and he's a terrible coach. Nuff said. His rotations and adjustments totally suck because he doesn't play Bol or bigger guys while we're getting devastated on the boards.

[@edwardmanues8576]

​@@dbass131right okay so he benched nurk doesn't mean we shouldn't be playing him or bol we get toasted on the boards every game. Funny everyone wants a big that's gets 20+ rebounds a game I feel with 2 solid centers and a true pf averaging say 10 each a game

[@xplicitintel]

Yall blaming Beal...But who traded for him? I remember when he came everyone was Giddy! Now yall wanna blow it up. Nope!...we gotta go through the consequences of selling our souls for the ship! I like Beal, he's been professional in this

[@adelking8862]

Beal is fucking EVERYTHING up🤣🤣 he better play his little heart out!

[@固體蛇]

Butler can unlock beal and booker, as he will be the new cp3. Problem with Kd is he shoots iso long 2s, that’s his game, so even when he’s hot and scores conservatively, the other teams can stay in game just by trading 3s with our 2s. If he passes, he turns the ball over like crazy. If you let book initiate offense, then you render kd as just another corner stretch four. Butler brings another dynamic that we don’t currently have, he drives to the basket, he draws fouls, brings toughness and d, and he is a legit point forward who brings the ball up and sets up teammates. He allows beal and book to function together…

[@kissband100]

KD is the best player in the team. Did you forget how many he closed by himself?! Plus he's consistent, Booker had a very low start of the season and Beal ruined the team. I think Beal needs to go, not KD!

[@markhix_realtor]

This is under the assumption that Bradley Beal is actually a superstar, right? Sadly Beal isn’t a superstar type of player and has proven it’s difficult for him to average 20 ppg when he’s the ball dominate player being the sixth man.

[@HeathenHammer123]

Trade Beal (If he allows it) KD and Book, start over man

[@Lucky00-00]

They got to ask his wife 😂

[@ndmaynard227]

Beal has denied your trade request

[@Boombixer]

Just trade KD and get picks. No picks, no deal. I'm talking 3-4 1st rounders. Don't be Dallas. Nothing is happening this year. We're not gonna unload Beal. Hope for the best next year.

[@Teddy-ll4pv]

Bradley Beal ruined any hope of legitimate success

[@THEENERGYINHALER]

Actually are success went out the window in the trash as soon as we fired Monty Williams and blew up the 2021 team.... I know 50 people are going to disagree with me but I'll believe that for as long as I live

[@edwardmanues8576]

I feel it was the DA trade and cp3 trade. Should of kept DA solid 15/15 guy. Cp3 I fell we could of got a whole lot more value. We could of got say a pass first defensive younger pg. And honestly with the emergence of Dunn this year.solid 3nD player. Helps with loss of Bridges

[@Teddy-ll4pv]

@ how much more evidence do we need that Beal can’t play with them, before we just accept that fact that the idea to do the trade was a mistake? There is a 50M hole on the roster that stops them from being able to make moves lmao. And it’s not the guy that’s avg 27 on 63% TS.

[@Teddy-ll4pv]

@@THEENERGYINHALER the same team that got their but kicked by Dallas in 22? Be fr that team needed a real upgrade. They got it but then pivoted to an outdated Big3 model instead of just building depth around 2 stars like everyone else.

[@doominator32]

@@edwardmanues8576DA was a cancer at that point and quit on the team in the playoffs 2 years in a row. Nurk was good for a year though he sucks now. Shoulda S&T Ayton to the Pacers for Myler Turner when we had the chance

[@cleokey]

How long is the Beal contract?

[@kingnacho69]

Beal and Bartlesteins and Plumlee are to blame for this mess

[@ChefBendejo]

Kevin Durant is the worst thing to happen to the Suns. Bring Mikal back.

[@dbass131]

Agreed. I would definitely trade him back to get back Bridges, Johnson, Payne, and Ayton.

[@dejayyjones5277]

⁠@@dbass131Ayton wasn’t part of that trade lol. Blame Monty having issues with him. He gave up on the team in d playoffs. Bridges has been traded 2X since then. Johnson the only luck of getting back. KD not to Blame here he’s been the most consistent since arriving!

[@janatroup9857]

It is time! Experiment & trying to buy a championship was a major failure!! Start over now, before you have nothing to trade!! But this will not happen this organization is a disaster!!!

[@dbass131]

@@janatroup9857 Mic drop and well said 👏

[@ronin_1776]

Fire James jones

[@VideosbyStew]

Make no mistake…Ishbia/Jones F’d up by trading Mikal, Cam and Ayton for this mess and they shouldn’t escape blame for this…

[@ronin_1776]

I can’t stand that Vince dude

[@AnthonyBrown-xd2lw]

Trade Book

[@Ro-yl9tn]

This is a toxic team. I hate KD is my favorite player.

[@Humanipathic]

Only Houston or OKC can give us picks and youth. Trading KD for Butler makes zero sense.

[@fAnaticZpodcast]

We need to do something.. even without KD you can’t allow that 3rd quarter shit show or we beat OKC on the road. The consistency is awful.

[@viffer94]

Draymond Green, Dillon Brooks, Jimmy Butler, Nurkic and Patrick Beverly. If the NBA thing doesn’t work out they can always go fight in the UFC. That is if Draymond and Nurkic don’t kill each other first. Maybe the Suns want Draymond so Nurkic will do something stupid and get himself suspended indefinitely.

[@CrucesMenace]

I would say KD to Houston makes sense for both sides. For Phoenix they get at least 4 first round picks for KD and 2 of those being old Phoenix picks they gave up originally for KD and for Houston, your getting a bonafied star to help this very young team make a deep post reason run cause they have the pieces to do it just not the experience

[@edwardmanues8576]

You know what. Only possible moves i can see us making to stay competitive is. shipping out nurk beal and hate to say it Dunn. In order to land butler and keep KD

[@JeffSoltis-x2o]

You can't ship Beal due to his no trade clause. So his 50+ Million is off of the table. The Suns are 90+ Million over CAP. So they would need to dump roughly 40+ Million to even trade for Butler.

[@pvhs1983]

A Suns team consisting of Book Luka and SGA? Only in the 2k world...

[@lindagarcia6207]

Bring back Mikeal, Johnson, and Payne!!!

[@ronin_1776]

They suck

[@codymazza7303]

if the warriors give us JK and wiggs i think it would be a good deal

[@cameronmeinhart]

And A few other players and 4 frost rounders. Since the salaries wouldn't add up w just JK and wiggs. And we need to compensate for how many first rounders we gave up for KD originally.

[@ndmaynard227]

Draymond incoming

[@cameronmeinhart]

@@ndmaynard227 is there report on that?

[@dubc2022]

Trade Booker now

[@Lucky00-00]

Trade you fair weak ass fan
