So as soon as KD slips on his clown shoes, it's over, right?

If KD slipped on his clown shoes before this trade PHX was cooked

If he slips on his clown shoes next spring they’re cooked but at least they have an extra dude to give them a long shot.

Denver had Jokic putting up Wilt Numbers and Jamal Murray playing with NBA 2K takeover badges and won the championship.
Welcome to NBA basketball …that’s how championship teams work ..your stats do star shyt and your bench supplements them ..and you’re in a bad space if you’re depending on rookie second round picks you bought to contribute in the payoffs

Read somewhere that Beal would refuse the NTC if ayton was apart of the deal for him. That NTC really put the wizards options to a minimal. That's almost robbery they got that package back for Beal.

Really hope he was refusing it for Herro as well because it makes no sense why the Heat would put that white boy in the deal

It’s like that old Chinese proverb: “The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.”

They should have traded Beal when they got rid of Wall but they didn’t. You can’t build a time machine like the Terminator and undo that. They would have done the rebuild thing and if they made some smart moves, they’d start to turn it around right now. Now they’ll be bad for a few years and hopefully in 2025 they’ll start to have an intriguing roster. Keeping him around next year is just kicking the can down the road for something you’ll have to go through anyway.
Trading Beal is equivalent to killing the tree, not turning it into paper or something useful and deciding to start planting a new tree 2 years from now.

The Wizards are gonna draft Bronny with a lotto pick and we're gonna see if LeBron really loves his son or if playing alongside Bronny was more like wanting to enter the Dunk contest.

Ayton can still bring in role players .

Phoenix can still buy draft picks on Thursday .
My memory sucks at time so remind me, sInce Booker, when have the Suns drafted anyone worth a damn? Cam Johnson, maybe? Mikal Bridges was drafted by Philly as well.
