devin booker used to be that dude.

what happened to breh

Is Minnesota for real this year?

Or is Phoenix just not that good?

Their older roster used to have real depth, consistency, reliability,!and continuity. Even after they got KD, all they had to do was get rid of Ayton and they probably would have been, at least, the same as years before with Jock. The ownership/GM Lebron’d themselves by trading their future, their depth, flexibility, and reliability for a “big 3”.

You’d think these teams would have learned that shyt don’t work anymore after the Bucks won it all with an extremely solid team + a really dominant versatile player (their GM needs to be drawn and quartered over their moves to get Dame and coaching changes lol).

The Suns gutted themselves, somehow thinking shock and awe still works like it’s the 2010’s lol. These Deep, solid teams aren’t scared of that shyt and have learned that they can outwork star power and produce the same. The clippers are dying by the same disease and their team is more flexible than the Suns. One injury can kneecap a season, solid teams adapting to keep 1/3 or 2/3 dominant players out of a game can end a playoff run. The “super team”, “big 3”, “loading up”, whatever you want to call it, is just about dead.

He’s a 35 year old 5‘8” guard, that’s why he doesn’t get any burn :russ:

Man is a mascot
shyt at the end of the day he’s another ball handler pause, they’re only pg on the roster, and all he needs to do is “set the table” for the “big 3” . Get the ball out of their hands and get them moving, confuse the defense, somebody will be rewarded if the defense commits to 1 or 2 of the 3. They’ve already sacrificed defense for offense IT can’t be that terrible. Vogel don’t have much to work with because they’re so top heavy but I don’t think he’s being creative enough on offense because that’s not his forte

The owner is delusional so he still thinks he can win a chip with this roster, so they’ll probably try to find a real PG to orchestrate the offense.

IMO - it’s not out of the question to blow the whole thing up. Trade Booker, get what you can for KD, you’re likely stuck with Beal unless you wanna give up draft capital. This team stinks and is going nowhere

Something like the KD for Bridges/Cam/Picks trade isn't possible when you're over the second apron. Couldn't blow it up even if they wanted to.
