so this were u dudes went
The person kicking the garbage can right now is lebron. Had a shot to get to the finals with the new additions, now the west just got tougher Dallas is going to be good, Phoenix is going to be a monster.
Ayton has a no trade clause …can deny any trade he wants
Damn me too

Can they still trade ayton
They probably need to see what they could get for him to replace some of the depth

So did Brooklyn’s front office really think KD would want to stay after they moved Kyrie?

A healthy KD and Kyrie just finished getting swept in the first round LAST YEAR by the C's yet they were one piece away?Stick to the beautiful game my boy. You know not what you speak of.

I love you, you know.
Biggest trade week in NBA history.
They still have Shamet and Payne but they might move Saric and Craig for better bench depth. Also Eric Gordon will get bought outWho is etc nikkathat's all they got who else Dario Saric and Torry Craig
The year before KD went to GS, the Warriors had the best regular season record. The Suns had the best regular season record last season.
KD basically hot-line, hot-song'd Bron, twice.

people pretending that they considered the suns as a title contender at this point in the season but now its a scary superteam
ayton is good but he surely doesnt qualify to help make a team become a "superteam"
chris paul will be 38 by the time the playoffs start
and the suns just traded away all of their wing depth... i dont see it being a CLEARLY better roster than some of these west contenders.
Generally speaking this is the age old tale of top end peak vs depth as a predictor of success
I think there are limits to both methods but I defer to top end talent because they swing the pendulum much further.
But the caveat to that is that your role players have to show up over 7 game series....4 of them to be precise
And your coach cant be a fool
When you go top heavy all other people must have a base level of competence
The only caveat with this trade on the phoenix side is that you just committed all in on a relatively old core 3 and those guys haven’t been the standard of health over the past few seasons as well ..that’s really the only way this thing blows up is if KDs body starts to break down faster than anticipated as he’s missed a lot of games recently ..same with Paul and Booker to a degree
