BREAKING: The Washington Wizards are trading three-time All-Star Bradley Beal to the Phoenix Suns for Chris Paul, Landry Shamet, second-rounders

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Beal musta vetoed any Miami deal because getting even a single first is better than what Phoenix offered.

Still, just getting off his contract was a W. That is an all-time albatross and now they can properly tear down and rebuild with Beal gone. New GM already doing good things.

Congratulations @FAH1223 @mastermind

The fact that they didn't have to take on any major long term money in the deal is a W for them and arguably worth more than those draft picks.

Will be another Phoenix second round exit capped off by a blowout game 7 loss at home

 

[Paper Boi]

KD taking the easy path once again.

still no bus drivers on that team tho

 

[Big Boss]

Super teams era is back baby

I only Trust Burt Steele for NBA News

Wiz definitely moving KP now

For who tho?

Maybe OKC? They got a billion firsts to give up, money to spend and a hole at PF

 

[ALonelyDad]

people saying suns have no bench, they already had no bench. They just replaced cpo and shamet with Beal. That is huge for them plus u can trade Ayton for some role players. The real hurt will come when mavs give them all their role players plus 10th pick

Wizards in full tank mode now.

The fact that they didn't have to take on any major long term money in the deal is a W for them and arguably worth more than those draft picks.

Shamet is additional money tho. Kyle was an expiring.

He wanted to play with kd and booker. That was the end game and who could blame him

 

[MarcP]

KD the goat on paper super team builder.

[livindajetlife]

Kyrie reuniting with KD

 

[No Homo]

I see NBA FO's are still behind on realizing this ain't the way anymore.

You can't win without depth and defense no matter how many 'superstars' you have

That super team shyt is DEAD

Yep the mid level talent in the NBA too good to be a top heavy team...you need depth

 

[Elim Garak]

Everyone but the Wizards knew they should have let Beal walk.

 

[jerniebert]

Got him for nothing. Good trade for the Suns.

this is some of the all time worst asset management we’ve seen in the nba by the Wizards. how can this even happen in 2023? how can you allow yourself to be so poorly managed with all the resources these teams have at their disposal?

This is the same franchise that traded a 24 year old Chris Webber to the Kings for an old washed up Mitch Richmond
