Suns are cooked. Congrats to the Nuggets for making the Conference Finals. They've always been my bet to make the Finals. KD 1/10 in the 1st half, channelling his inner Tatum.

Hire Monty Williams and Stephen Silas as assistant coaches.

Being blown out in 2 straight elimination games at home is ‘blow up your team’ levels of embarrassing.

KD once again made the wrong decision.

He should have asked to be traded to Boston.

With the Suns eliminated, that assures both Finals teams will have at least one All-NBA player. Phoenix was the sole 2nd round playoff team that didn't have an All-NBA player on the roster.

Still, I offer the hardest of passes.

Gee the suns gutted their depth for him. They well overpaid and would have expected us to overpay too

I mean, Nuggets are pretty stacked

The depth they have around Jokic and Murray is underrated.

So dang happy we didin't trade 3 gazillion first rounders and Brown for a 35 year old Durant, even if we would've been dropped in the 2nd round of the playoffs. IF it ever comes to it, I'd rather trade Brown for somebody who's not as good as Durant, but younger and fits this team better AND mostly importantly WONT be that freaking expensive.
Good assessment:

That's a good idea.

AG as a 4th in the pecking order is pretty dangerous. Now he cam just do what he does well and not need to try and be the man

My hope is that they basically age out now. They traded away a lot of youth for an older now injury prone player. And ayton still doesn't want to be there
