We won't get hot garbage, I bet we get Kuminga, Wiggins, Schroder and firsts for Durant!
Then Allen for Goga
Nurkic for anything

I would bet that team is better than what we have on the court now.

Jones / Schroder
Booker / Beal
Kuminga / Dunn
Wiggins / Dunn
Goga / Richards

Letsssssss gooooooooo I would love to watch that team hustle

i bet the eam having our picks would love that too


That is still a playoff team!

That chance was wasted when our BUSINESS MAN wanted to make a splash 2 years ago


Correct. So making a good trade for Durant now is the wise course of action

I don't get the thinking that Butler over Beal makes this team a title contender. OKC, Houston, Dallas, Denver, Memphis are all better today that the Suns

hell, the Suns might not even make the play-in game with Jimmy Butler

I don't know if its a playoff team but its not worse than the current and at least you have a chance to build something with the 3
FRPs you got two weeks ago and picks from a Durant trade

Now, if you go all in for Butler and to dump Nurkic - what picks do you have ? And you are over the second apron and you are basically hosed

We know this already but giving up KD for hot garbage is not an option.

"The Warriors have been seriously pursuing Kevin Durant over the last week, but sources tell me Durant has no desire in a reunion with the Warriors," said Shams Charania. "He does not want to go back to the Warriors."

Windy just said the same. So it's Miami or nothing then. I need Ware, Jovic and picks in this deal for him-in addition to Jimmy. But really let's hold onto him and make the big moves 4 months from now.

Gambo

Here is the latest. It is highly unlikely now that the Suns will trade Kevin Durant to Golden State. KD does not want to play for the Warriors he wants to stay in Phoenix. This trade had a lot of momentum in the last 24 hours but that momentum is lost.

Windhorst said KD to Heat a possibility.

Not happening.

If you trade that basketball monster in Durant you trade him East. Never a good idea to make your rivals better. Ask the Mavs GM.

Unless they are getting a kings ransom for Durant don't do any trade. Players like him are pretty much unattainable in the NBA.

If Beal won't waive his NTC than fine. It's not worth trading Durant to get Butler. Is Ishbia on crack?

Definitely most of this is media driven by the organizations they want Suns to budge.

Other organizations trying to save the Suns like Mavs GM saved the Lakers, but Ish and KD said No.

Return to Phoenix Suns
