Man. It just makes me think of just how much better we'd have been if we were able to jettison Beal for Butler. Even with his age, he's a superior fit for the team and would have probably continued to be.

I so very much hate this team from top to bottom.

Beal not waiving his NTC was the nail in the coffin for me. As much as I hate Lebron, in this situation he would have made Beal feel fear for his life and his family's life through whatever means necessary to get the deal done. KD just watched, observed, said oh well Brad is his own man and went back to smoking weed.

I thought we'd have a punchers chance with Jimmy, and be at least watchable. Oh well

This is an elimination game and this is how we decide to play? I’m nearing a point where I’m done watching this team. My heart could only take so much before RaisingAZ breaks it again.

Unless my math is wrong, I’m pretty sure it’s not an elimination game just yet. But don’t worry, we play the best team in the league tomorrow. We will be free soon.

Butler was always just a one year shot and they probably don’t even make the finals

If the goal was the playoffs - wrecking your future, for one chance - fine

They really get up for these national TV games. Wow. They might get it under 25 if they keep playing this way.

We done officially tomorrow if we lose and Dallas wins vs Lakers. Basically Suns will have to win out and Mavericks will have to lose all 3 of their remaining games since we won the season series vs them. One Suns loss in the next 3 games or one Mavericks win eliminates the Suns from the play in.

Hard to get any worse than the existing product.

Cooper Flagg, welcome to Houston
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

I'm sorry that this is what it has come to, big love to y'all. Our teams should've been battling for years at the top but now we are battling for a play in spot :roll:

Return to Phoenix Suns
