That may sound extreme but I believe you are correct. What possessed them to do that? Geez…


Isaiah Thomas.

No, seriously. It's entirely probable he factored in the decision.

apparently he didn't but who knows
Basketball Hall of Fame guard Isiah Thomas, who has served as an adviser to the Phoenix Suns, reportedly was not involved in the recruitment and subsequent trade of star guard Bradley Beal.

ESPN's Brian Windhorst relayed that news:

"Thomas has spent time in Phoenix informally advising the Suns' front office, sources said, but that has reduced in recent weeks as Ishbia added to his front office. Thomas was not part of the Beal recruitment and subsequent trade, sources said. Thomas has been at the NBA 2K24 Summer League in Las Vegas working for NBA TV and has spent time with Suns executives."

Booker is their cornerstone and Beal is untradable. They should deal KD for the biggest haul they can get.

If you have 40 minutes, watch the Youtube video. It's a really entertaining deep dive into the Ishbia and the Suns, how he lies about so many things, and how he claims people are independent, or not involved, while they are 100% the opposite.

I'm not saying Windhorst isn't credible, he's a good source, but if you watch that video, Ishbia has been lying about his relationship with Isaiah, and Thomas' power within his organization, forever. Isaiah is literally his childhood hero that he's paid millions and millions of dollars to over the years under the guise of him being a board member for his mortgage company, to simply hang out with him and be his buddy. It's CRAZY.

They were done before that. Their problem was doubling down on the big 3 idea. Beal just hasten it because there was no self control for Phoenix.

Lol @ the Cavs. If they had won their last game of the season the game that they were in control of. They wouldve been playing the pacers instead of this physical Magic team. All you gotta do is punch the Cavs in the mouth and they fold

I don’t think it’s tradable.

Favorite nonKnick(let it always stay that way) in the league. That obnoxiously large income for the (lack of)production is something else. Cant deny the hustle - beautiful work.

Even if he wasn’t involved with the team in an official capacity as far recruiting Beal or on trade calls , he’s one phone call away since that’s his right side guy, so I’m sure he had some consulting on that deal.
