That don't look good butttt....

Suns won tonight. Beal led team in scoring with 25. They mightve found something with this Beal 6th man thing they got going.

They are 2-1 since he was benched. And their next 4 games are jazz hornets hawks wiz. They win all those vs non playoff teams and maybe they drink the Kool aid and think they figured out the issue.

Stop bro. Were gonna end up with Timmy JR and Tobias.

Funniest outcome is Beal and Suns going on a streak.

He’s washed bro lol his failure to maximize the Jimmy window despite being 1 shot away from 3 finals trips in 5 years despite a horrible roster is one of the worst jobs we’ve seen

Man wtf the Bam defensive numbers have been in the 80s damn near every game that is insane. For comparison the best defense in the league is OKC at 103.5.

Side note: this is the first time in a long time the bench was able to hold up the elite defense. Tonight was a weird game where basically no one could hit a shot so we’ll see if it holds up. Utah played terrible defense tonight, we missed so many wide open looks

Or, we did maximized it. Overachieved the Jimmy era, tbh. What was Jimmy before coming here? He was viewed as a #2 or #3 on a contending team.
We went to TWO finals w that guy as our #1. With two mid first rounders to surround him. That's a huge, historical overachievement.

So, he couldn't add another star? Is that we are blaming him for?
What has the GM LeBron added after he and AD formed a duo? Who's the third star they added?
LeBron, a powerful GM w Klutch behind him and so many friends in the league, how could he not have added a third star to form a dynasty?
They added Westbrook n failed. Just like we added Lowry and failed.
Most top teams TRY to add another star. They either fail to get one, or get one and fail. Only one team can ultimately succeed, right? So, he's washed cuz we not a championship contender every year? Ok

Where did I mention a star? This team overachieved with glaring weaknesses on the roster, he NEVER addressed any of them. Never added legit talent to Jimmy Bam and Spo to help get them over the top star or not and instead had them rely on several undrafted guys every year. Idk how anyone can seriously defend the job he’s done after acquiring Jimmy, never any sense of urgency to truly upgrade the roster and get over the top.

Lebron won a championship with AD and a well rounded roster so idk what you’re going on about there

You’re wasting your breath w/ a guy that wanted to rid of everybody apart frm his gf Bam.
If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade
