The Official 2025 Offseason Thread Part 2

[SkyBill40]

DDV is duplicative with Grayson here and one of them should be sent elsewhere. We could see something like:

Suns in: Gobert/Dillingham/Cole Anthony/MN #17/future protected 1st from Orlando

MN in: KD

Orlando in: Donte Divincenzo

I wouldn't mind Gobert as he completely solidifies the paint; however, he's got no versatility and is a liability in a fast based offensive scheme. Dillingham was decent at Kentucky and could shape into a solid contributor if given adequate run. Cole Anthony is pretty nice and I wouldn't have any complaint in him coming aboard. As far as Divincenzo, well, I've always liked him but I don't think he's necessary and moving him elsewhere might not be a bad play.

I'm calling it that the Suns accept a Vassell/ Barnes/ Sochan package. And that them asking for the 2nd pick or Castle is just postering. But eventually they'll settle on the above package from the Spurs.

Basically a KD for Vassell/ Barnes/ Sochan/ 14th pick/ 38th pick/ ATL 27' 1st. And call it a day. But they're definitely trying to push for better value if possible.

And these Instagram posts indicate that a KD to Spurs framework is already 90% complete and they're really just haggling over pick value inclusion.

Most likely. Let's hope we win one for once

Gambodoro on Kevin Durant: “We've got six offers in, let's just take the best offer, okay? I have a pretty good feeling right now. I'm not gonna say it, but I have a pretty good feeling right now what the best offer is.”

He’s got a pretty good feeling but he won’t say it? I have a pretty good feeling of the next billion dollar powerball lottery numbers folks but I won’t say it.

Why does Arizona have the dumbest fcking media in the league?

It's very obvious that he is a propagandist for the Suns FO. In exchange for access and scoops, he provides favourable coverage.

....or you're shook cause the trash Spurs crap you've been trying to peddle and nonsense you've posted and bored us all with might be wrong?


Either way, I love how you pretend you dont want KD, and spend all this time here in our forum annoying everyone here. Because none of us want you in our forum and would gladly see you back in Spurs one, or just not here.


But yeah, you're not really interested in Durant, you're just here in a Suns forum for the past 4 days for.....reasons.

If all you Gobert lovers hated our team this year with KD. If we do acquire him hope you have a vomit pail next to you when you watch Gobert play for the Phoenix Suns.

There are clearly three choices for KD.
1. Miami
2. Houston
3. San Antonio.

Of course, someone can surprise us, but we better not trade with Minnesota unless Jaden McDaniel's is included.

The offer that Ishiba likes the best is what Gambo likes... or Gambo has no idea and just grifting audience for a ride.

Ayton was the Suns best big man since Amare and he was useful both ends and could play against small ball... weakness was effort but he was effective even with 80% energy. The Monty fiasco and then KD trade drove Ayton out fast.... and so did the Suns championship aspirations as the team went for a bad culture and shortcuts that didn't pay off... no future.

Bully censorship much?

Slim you are not the group spokesman… nor a moderator.

If we removed annoying posters, well, by my standards this forum wouldn’t have much discussion. Heck, I’m probably on a few lists.

If you disagree just disagree… turning this into some kind of turf war is comical.

Gambo gets a lot of flack… but if you look at him more like he’s a weatherman, he is useful. He has his sources and I’m sure with some caveats of disclosure.

I don’t think Sparta is savvy enough to play the disinformation game. And it really isn’t needed with all of the clickbait hungry pseudo insideinfo speculators out there.
Kind of makes you miss RayRay (wasn’t that our dude?)

It seems that the Wolves are unlikely to trade for KD now, so the best option on paper can be the Rockets now.

Jabari Smith has $12M next season, his last year under rookie contract. He would be a nice piece for the future, but I am not in love with his defense and playing around the rim.

He is a nice 3p shooter and rebounder por the PF slot, we would get a young starting PF restricted.

For sure!
But to me it looks like a situation wherein he's moving to Phoenix with his buddies helping him ( his entourage)?? And is that luggage or boxes behind him on the left behind him. It might he just what you're saying man. But it does seem like a lot to go through with just to troll a fanbase?

I just get the feeling that he's down here with "his boys" looking at potential homes, or already has a place (due to trade already being done)?? And his friends are with him to check out Phoenix and help him transition to Phoenix.

I think u guys get Ware since KD will extend in miami

Misdirection and postering. But it appears to me that although very brief, those are indeed boxes and luggage in this clip behind he and his friends. And that portion of the freeway looks distinctly like I-10 coming into town from the Papago freeway tunnel.

And honestly though, in the NBA it happens from time to time wherein reports of teams not trading players or not making specific moves is put out ( to not diminish exchange value) and then later those moves still do end up happening.

That makes no logical sense. Sochan wouldn't be packing up his stuff to move unless the deal was done, and it's clearly not done so obviously he's just trolling people.
