Thank you. This team is so easy to beat by just simply playing a uptempo offense but this team is too stupid to realise that

NY for me.

I'm rooting for the Mavs. Kyrie has been one of my favorite players, and Suns should have drafted Luka anyway...

I enjoy fun basketball.

That trade was pushed by Ishbia because JJ didn't want to give up Bridges. It's been reported! How are people still blaming JJ for that?

Ishbia probably called JJ in the middle of the night, after a few lines and told him to pull the trigger.

Knicks were my team as a kid. They actually play hard-nosed basketball. A lot of fun watching their playoff games so far unlike the Suns games. This is the worst season I've had the displeasure of watching. Including the 19 win years.

I've always been a Suns fan but I loved the 90s knicks. So I'm glad they're good and gritty again. And MSG is the only NBA crowd I think is respectable

How terrible is my ability to choose teams to follow though. I guess I'm a masochist. My entire sports fandom life has been absolute misery.

EG decided to up the tempo on one play and couldn't get past half court with a TO. Why people think this team has the personal to play uptempo style I have no idea.

We'll recoup reasonable value if we trade KD. Knicks will happily send us something like Randle + 3 picks. OKC with Giddey + 3 picks would also be on the table I would think.

The problem is if we trade KD, Book will almost certainly want out. So do you go down that route? Book has sucked this year - disinterested, played terrible defense, and hasn't looked like an offensive superstar at all.

You could trade him and get a massive package (4-5 1sts), but that's essentially committing to a complete rebuild in a situation where you don't have your own picks. You could get lucky in the draft and hit on some star players, but there's an equal chance you're stuck in the purgatory for 5-7 years.

Some very tough decisions to be made here.

There's another option where you try and run this back, but that requires you to absolutely thread the needle - hire the perfect GM, hire the perfect head coach, absolutely nail it in this year's draft, make a couple of amazing trades, and hit on the perfect vet min signings. That's not impossible to do, but very very difficult, and the margin for error there is way too thin.

I say the Nuggets. There are no annoying players on that team. A few years ago Ayton 4 - 0 Jokic. Always puts a smile on my face. If we had built the team around Ayton, maybe...

Bol Bol has pretty good minutes and of course never sees the court again. Vogel is a huge part of the misery in watching this season.

JFC.. Honestly hard to say much else. Us being swept is going to be a huge blow to Ishbia, but he probably won't care.

This is just pathetic in the worst possible way.

JJ put us in that spot for having no assets with his **** picks. Maybe Ish pushed it through but no doubt a more competent GM doesn't get fleeced on it as much as he did.

Sad thing is Booker and KD will get carried to a gold in the summer and they'll continue to act like winners coming into next season.
