Now that the madness is over, can someone tell me what the hell is Phoenix doing?

They salary dumped Warren, a productive young forward on a reasonable deal. Gave up a 2nd round pick to do it. I guess they're opening up space for a PG? Maybe Russell? Nah, then used almost half of that space by taking Baynes.

Not to mention they used #11 pick on a guy that was projected to be a late 1st round pick. Why not move down?

Picks were garbage tonight. Especially 22. Makes zero sense.

Hes just not happy with the bayns trade. Or any of the picks really.

Hes a man who knows the celtics just punted the next two seasons minimum.


Lol I dont see how any move we made tonight was a punt move. We cleared cap space and toon some good picks


I think it’s because it’s a set up which is for the next move which is taking on trash for future picks


Picks that end up in a bad draft on a team that doesnt have room for them so we trade them for second round picks and future picks.... and continue the cycle.

The should bring the light down low for the 2nd round and call it NBA Draft After Dark. Mark Tatum could come out dressed in a silk kimono and tell everyone "Get comfortable because things are just getting started."

Sticking with my prediction of Jalen Lecque at 33. Fits the Ainge mold to a tee

This entire week has been a giant **** punt. Did you even hear the Stevens presser? He literally used the word future.

We went from.a bad 4th overall seed to a team who lost 2 of its 3 most talented players. We dont need to act like were better without those two just because one of them is a ****.


Shhh people have dreams of kemba


Has Kemba made the playoffs at all since 2011? In a historically weak conference. Once?

If we freed up cap space just to waste it on Rozier...

And Steven Adams, who you can't even play in the playoffs. I would puke.

No, but who is the best player he's played with in that span? He's just Kyrie-lite with a better personality, which maybe makes him better.
