We should be able to win the next two, but then we have a brutal 10 game stretch. OKC could rest players in our game against them given they will have the 1 seed locked up soon, but they still might beat us. Not sure how many we can win out of that stretch. Would be good if we could win 3 or 4.

Why would anyone want to make the playoffs with this roster?

Also the Booker hate has gone way too far. I’m glad we aren’t trading him. I wish we could trade some fans though.

The only two positives with this season so far is:
1 - They don't have the leagues worst contract with Beal. Sixers have two worse.
2 - They don't have the most mocked and hated FO/ownership. That's the Mavs.

Nothing else though.

Prediction:
Beal,Durant and Booker all have serious injuries before the end of the season crippling any chances other teams want them.

Should we win the next two? Suns are just as bad as those teams

Classic battle of an insanely tough schedule vs 3 tanking teams. Let’s see who prevails. Looks like we have the tiebreaker vs the Mavs, don’t have it vs the Blazers, and have 1 game left vs the Spurs to determine it.

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal out second half vs Lakers with left hamstring soreness

Beal has had injuries to his right shoulder, right elbow, right knee, left ankle, left great toe, left calf and now left hamstring soreness.

Unbelievable. AGAIN lol. And the worst thing it's that when he plays he isn't a factor at all.

The best thing the Suns can do is trade Booker
He would bring back the most assets to start a rebuild

He can go to Detroit - play second fiddle to Cade and thrive

If the Suns want to move on from Beal - the best thing they can do is trade BOoker and Durant
He may not want to stay
granted, what player are you trading for ? probably a worse contract

I just don't know how Ishbia can watch today against the Lakers, see the pathetic effort - and think, I want to keep anybody on this roster

As long as at least Stewart, Ivey, and one of either Thompson or Holland are coming back, then the total number of picks aren't that important to me! :wink:

Mr. Bradley " I hold the effing cards" Beal!!
Just reminding Ishbia who's really in control here.

Reminds me to watch DKR again. Whenever I put on a Nolan/Bale Batman film, I always revert to the DK or Begins but always seem to leave out Rises

Yep! We really blew great opportunities opportunities with both Zion and Suggs. Just ridiculous ineptitude!

Dude.

I promoted us going after both of those dudes multiple times. I got mocked and laughed at for it. Unfortunately we need to buy low on guys in order to get an elite player.

Alot of posters here don't realize this and don't get guys can have down years. That's when you strike.

You also promoted (multiple times) going after Embiid with the same rationale
