The length you go defending ‘your magical cap space plan, is disturbing. Even when you timidly take it to the big board, people shy away from engagement just from the insane volume. Fccck, you can’t even acknowledge that the front office has pretty clearly stated a different path, yet you incessantly blow your whimsical whistle with far fetched blow it up 5 sided trades, second round sleepers and this ‘boy you just wait till 27-28 when we sign our franchise saving free agents’. Like that will somehow will launch us into contention? Yup, everyone is stupid that doesn’t see the wisdom in gutting this team for draft picks and cap space. Because ohhh there is a crime for being middle ranked team next yr with Booker. And he needs to go now because his value is peaking? Barring injury, Book isn’t going to lose any value anytime soon. And there was a time when people wanted to play with him.
Shttt, all I have proposed is stretching Beal to get and stay under the second apron, giving Phnx a lot more flexibility. And a measly 19 million ticked off in cap space ….3 yrs from now when the cap amount will have increased by more than that amount. Keep in mind, your wonder plan clips Phnx for 50 mill in 25/26 and 26/27…… so you can load up on your second rounders and minimum one yr deals for the next two yrs. Oh but wait, may be we can trade Beal because he will be a massive expiring. Why even keep Beal if you are booting Book out the door?
I don’t care so much as what they do. But I think I can see their path or at least one that follows all that they have said so far. It’s just a shame that 3 or 4 fn know it all’s have hijacked these threads with the same old spew over and over and can do nothing but eye poke and demean alternative thoughts, even when they parallel what has been outlined in the media.
The way I see, I’m done commenting on your maniacal input here. There is no point. You are a fn genius GM. Gawd, you have even taken possession of this team with your ‘I’ would do this and ‘I’ would do that rhetoric.
This site is a reflection of this season. This might be an abrasive response to your bomb of red letter rebuttals… but Christ, just give it rest. Stretching Beal is no where near the top of problems with this organization.
I’m outta here
Thanks Frank - I agree.
I can't wait to see this boards reaction when Ish extends and keeps KD.
If all we are offered is a slew of Grayson Allen's and Royce O'Neal's along with guys that have large salaries that can't play while gifting us a bunch of 2nd rounders, I guess we should take that. I can actually see that offer for KD. If so, I keep him. If we get legit players and draft picks, I probably trade him. However, I do not think that is a given.
The hope is to trade Beal. If we are able to do that without giving up draft picks he should immediately become EOY.
