KD Traded for Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, #10 & 5 2nds

[wheezy]

I feel like we are officially the dumbest organization.

At least we didn't trade Luka? Nor draft him

[WeekapaugGroove]

Call SA and offer them Booker for 2 Sochan and Johnson. Draft Harper 2 and a C at 10. Profit

[Puff]

I would keep green because we will get back little if we trade him.

Green
Booker
Brooks
Dunn
Richards

Trade Allen or Oneale and our later pick for a Center.

So our forwards are Brooks & Dunn. Not bad.

Some of my favorites

"Boot Scootin' Boogie"
"Hard Workin' Man"/Men - Let's hope they live up to the title of this song
"My Maria" - I expect there will be a lot of Maria's to choose from in Phoenix
"Neon Moon" - Let's hope they save this for the off season

There are several Centers and PF's available in this draft - are they any good. How about Carter Bryant from U of A

I was good to just move on with KD but hopefully we can get a good one at 10 and Green can justify his 2nd pick in the 2021 draft.

I just wonder if Brooks and Book will continue the Friday Night fights in the Suns Locker Room.

This stinks of stupidity. Good to see nothing has changed even though James Jones is no longer running things. Same old Suns. We just can't help ourselves and even when we try, it somehow ends up worse than we started.

[TASTIC]

This team and owner/GM make it REALLY hard to root for them.

Cheering for DIllon Brooks and Jalen Green also makes me want to walk away from this franchise. They just consistently manage to over-promise and underwhelm with their actions. From being STACKED with young assets, picks and chemistry and 2 wins from a title....to now this.

Disgraceful

[Mr Puddles]

So the Suns turned down the Warriors trade to make KD happy, only to be strong armed by KD into getting 50% of that return a couple months later.

For the people in the back:

[Mulhollanddrive]

Upcoming 25 wins and none of our picks

[Mulhollanddrive]

Last week we said Booker is playing SG then we trade for a SG

[garrick]

My first impression of the trade...we needed to get at least one unprotected FRP for KD. ****.

Dillon Brooks is a key addition. The rumor was Jalen Green + filler + 10th. That wasn't acceptable at all.

Jock Landale and Aaron Holiday next to Jalen Green and #10 would have been terrible, not acceptable.

We got Dillon Brooks and 5 2nds...so I would say that it's a DECENT package for KD, but probably I value Brooks and Green higher than most fans.

Dillon Brooks is gonna give us exactly what we needed...defense, grit and tough mentality and he is on pretty fair contract.

'And with that, a mighty cheer went up from the heroes of Phoenix. They had banished the awful Kevin Durant forever... because he was haunted. Now, let's all celebrate... with a cool glass of Dillon Brooks.'

Ironically Dillon Brooks was the type of player missing last 2 seasons. He would have started fights that rallies his team. He would also tell players to pick it up or go home. Suns need a-hole players who tell it like it is.

Pretty sure Book will get all in his feelings next season and get Dillon shipped off somewhere.

It's a pretty bad ROI for KD but at 37 he realistically was not going to bring back a huge haul which was the gamble Ishbia took on when he traded for a then 34 year old KD but he SHOULD have known the risks involved when trading the farm for him.

This organization is in shambles.

[FarBeyondDriven]

considering KD ruined your leverage this isn't that bad a return. Brooks is a culture setter and much needed actual 3 and D. It remains to be seen whether Green remains on the team past July 6th when the trade becomes official and he can be moved. At minimum you're getting someone that has improved and might have additional upside as he enters his prime and as a slasher provides a compliment to your perimeter dominated offense up. I think there's a real opportunity to trade back from 10 to pick up additional picks/players and if done right, enough to surround Booker with something he can work with.

My underwhelming got underwhelmed

[BurningHeart]

Addition by subtraction, people.

Tbh I’m glad we don’t have Luka. Guy is annoying and hard to watch! Cries every play and doesn’t get back on defense . He is the white James harden

[KdoubleDees23]

Last week we said Booker is playing SG then we trade for a SG

We need guards ! Every team needs more than one guard

[lilfishi22]

I will say though, as Gregory's first trade as GM.....it's rough. I mean, tough situation for him to come into but he knew what he was getting himself into so he does not get any sympathy from me.

[lilfishi22]

Yeah but we specifically need a POINT guard

[lilfishi22]

My underwhelming got underwhelmed

Yeah that's probably where I'm leaning as well

[AtheJ415]

We should have gotten Shepperd also.

We shoud keep Green. Hope he improves shooting and decisionmaking. He's 23. Could learn from Book

I am not against trading Green but Claxton would be underwhelming.

Only 23
very talented
played every game this year and averaged 21 ppg
shot 35% from 3's

There is talent there to build on and that is one thing the Suns need - young talent

Gerald Bourguets article quoted somebody , paraphrasing, that Green and Brooks bring an attitude to the floor and play hard
That would be a welcome sight
