If Beverly is bought out - would anyone want to see Suns go after him?

Seriously? CP3 and Book hate him.


How about Matt Ishbia?


Yeah, what I was thinking when posting question. To be fair, I hate the guy and would hate to see him signed, but defensive guard is kind of a need

well, if I understand it correctly, Warriors rerouted Bey and got 5 2nd round picks back for 2nd pick overall in Wiseman? is it really good?

You are right, I realized that later.


They do save a ton of money but if Warriors want to compete and didn't care about money like I didn't think they did, it seems like they'd keep a player like Bey.

I thought the Hawks were trying to get off money too.

Shams just said the warriors are leaders for OG.

I was trying my best not to mention anything about OG until after the deadline as to not jinx it and have him end up on a west rival lol


For who I wonder? Moody and Wiggins or something?

There’s another Holiday out there called “Jru” maybe we can pick him up without losing much of our roster. Get it done Matty!

Bazley is ok I guess. Wanted Kenrich like pretty much everyone here. But as long as Bazley can defend and hit an occasional 3 its an upgrade over Saric for sure. Neat to pick up a younger player but I wouldnt really be too excited about his future if he couldn't break through a thunder team.

I still think the Clips will be very very tough to beat in the playoffs unless Kawhi/George get hurt. They have solid depth, even if no one is really really good. Gordon can be a really good player sometimes. So can Powell and Kennard a great shooter.


Kennard got traded to the Grizz

JoRain, I don’t think I’ve seen you post on here before but once Suns got KD you suddenly became a regular. Hehe

Not that he was some make or break piece of how good I think they Clips can be.

We have Kevin Durant. That makes Devin Booker our #2 option.

True, but the best team to matchup with those two guys are the Clips with Kawhi and George.

I used to post a while back. But you're right, not a big poster now or ever really.. mostly just read. But been a Suns fan since Barkley so... Just guess the KD trade got me today

I think I'm the only one who would take Patrick Beverley and start him.

Payne is our wildcard off the bench. Dude has barely played this season but looks better than previous one. If he could play at least 80% of what he was few years ago then give us the chip already cause it’s game over!
