I doubt Booker happens though as he'll go for a premium, and is the lone building block who is young that the Suns have.


It's crazy to think it now, but I still think Durant would be a perfect fit here between Maxey and Embiid. Does Phoenix move him? He's not really the problem with that team. He's still a great scorer, just can't carry them by himself.


Do you seriously think Durant is attainable without giving up Maxey plus any other assets we have? I want no part of any of them, but PHX already screwed themselves with the Beal trade, so I can't imagine they won't ask a king's ransom for Durant or Booker if they even want to move them.

I think he’s worth Harden’s haul at this point. I think he also likes Embiid iirc. Might force his way here.

I like his personality but his defense is so overrated...

And sometimes he just do stuff for the clicks which also helps his image. It's fine if he's on your team, but he's been getting inflated contracts his entire career on the back of doing it.

Yesterday he fouled Nembhart and then tried to take the ball away when the ref was getting it for the FTS, just dumb stuff.

This year his offense has been great tho.

The Suns would demand at least one Player they can use, which is why i think there is no way we can get him

Beal's contract is just a sink cost so they' 're forced to keep trying to win (with this core or trying to see what they can get for Durant) until he's off or to go for a long rebuild and trade both Durant and Booker.

Watching more Ingram this season, I feel like somehow he'd be a huge letdown here. Hopefully my gut is wrong if we were to acquire him.

We have to win this series. Unfortunate the first two games of our series shook out the way they did.

The only way Durant would become a Sixer is if Phoenix was just looking to reset everything. There's no way in Hell I'm giving up Maxey for him. None what so ever. I just think he'd be a good fit here.

Tatum is such a good second to third star who has enjoyed a fortunate career with a lot of extremely talented players around him. But it’s insane that he’s ever considered an MVP candidate. He’s a tough shot maker who often goes ice cold in the playoffs. If he were a true superstar, they’d have a championship right now with the talent he’s had around him.

I'd say being Sixers fans we are actually the most qualified to talk about choking as our team are elite at it.

Here are the differences I see in our team this year:

- We have good wing depth.
- We have a good bench.
- Embiid knows how to fight back when the refs allow physicality on him.
- Our two-man game is harder to defend.
- Embiid is better at pacing himself.
- We have a guy who can carry the scoring outside Embiid.

It’s just a shame that we mismanaged the first two games of this Knicks series. However, it's also the type of series that can help us become a better team, assuming we make it past this series.
