Yeah I'm kinda gettin that feeling too. We'll see if anything comes out from our front office about it. Just feels like Booker would be 'the guy' for the Kings since he has a million comparisons to Klay Thompson (however accurate or inaccurate those are).

Booker will be better than Thompson. I see Booker as the next Kobe. I'm glad McD didn't do it. Time to trade Bled and fire up full Tank mode. Let's get Fultz, no Ball please.

I'm almost done. Waving the white flag. Trade everyone. Let's suck. Sixers style seems fun, sure.

Yeah I reached my breaking point too. It's time to tank. It'll be less stressful once we can just accept losing is normal and is in fact part of the plan.

These next few days could represent a crossroads for both McD and the Suns. He and the Suns resisted "the dark side" on Sunday. Already "interesting" to say the least. Who knows what could happen by Thursday.

Buddy Hield and a late lotto slash outside lotto pick plus Tyreke's contract for the top center in the NBA. Ranadive and Divac obsessed with small ball? Or just nuts.

Im starting to think Booker alone could of nabbed Cousins.

Another star we loose out on.... FO need to send a clear message to the fans what route we're taking. McD has done OK in the draft but he has also lost a lot of deals and I'm beginning to think he's not the right man anymore. I agree we need to trade Bledsoe in the next 8 months.

Post #794 » by **Qwigglez** » Mon Feb 20, 2017 8:54 am

I'm still in a state of shock and disbelief. What more could we have added to make the Kings trade with us? We could have added a Miami 1st, we could have added our 2019 1st, we could have added both Miami picks. What gives man? McD, are you that incompetent? Boogie would have easily made us relevant. He'd anchor the middle and we'd have Booker on the perimeter. A modern day Shaq-Kobe duo. We'd have enough money in the offseason to go after top tier free agents.
What do we have all these picks for? Are we banking on getting franchise guys every single time?

I think we can all agree that any trade posted here is fair game. I don't ever want to hear someone say we aren't offering enough, or X team wouldn't accept that offer. Or Booker, Chriss, Bender, and all our picks til 2030 are necessary to get it done.

Oh and another thing...
Knight > Hield. Knight rookie's year > Hield's rookie year. Knight is only 2 years older than Hield.

Somewhere Billy King is smiling right now.

Maybe we can sell Cousins on being "the man" in Phoenix this offseason like we did Aldridge, Eric Gordon way back in 2012 and even LeBron. Oh who am I kidding, we'll be #2 or #3 again in his destinations and he won't sign here. Time to start the tank full on.

Smh man this sucks. Buddy Freaking Hield got New Orleans an arguable superstar. Im dying inside man.

Why would you want to trade Bledsoe?

Having a career year, finally healthy and still has room for improvement?

People complaining we can't lure FA's yet want to move our best player currently just for the sake of it.

Weird.

Nothing. Compared to the offer the Pels made, our offer was one they couldn't refuse, yet they did

This isn't on McD, this isn't on our assets and it certainly isn't on Sarver. King's FO is just incompetent and borderline destructive.

I'm sick to my stomach. This hurts. I feel like this is the trade we've all been waiting years for, and when it finally comes down to it, Boogie gets traded for a poopoo platter.
Buddy Hield... who again, has worse numbers as a 23 year old rookie than Knight had as a 20 year old rookie. Tell me how this trade is fair for the Kings? Tell me why they would accept this deal?

Oh and Boogie is a free agent next offseason not this one.
