Mateen Cleaves? Hmm, I wonder what quality this person had that made him receive interest from the Phoenix Suns organization. I can't put my finger on anything in particular ...

I’ll give you some too

Ha ha! On my Alexa: "Lebron hasn't texted Ayton. Is he frustrated with the Lakers?" It’s a dick move, either way. I used to be a big LeBron fan but after he went to the Lakers that kind of helped cure it for me lol. Btw, if LeBron is still on the Lakers to start the season, it will be the longest h ...

This organization is trying to be a joke?

I do think we get caught up in the numbers and act like it’s some big thing that Booker signed the highest annual salary extension in history, when in fact it’s just the exact same extension being signed by every max player. It’s just 35% of the cap and multiple players will be making 35% of the cap ...

Is it an overpay? Ya probably..but only because the guys better than him are also capped at the same amount. It’s just the going rate for a franchise player…whether they are the best player in the nba or the 15th. He was always going to get it, so I don’t find a ton of value in debating whether he wa ...

This is likely Beal’s last “fuck you” to the franchise on his way out. Hell, it wouldn’t surprise me if he was insisting on getting a NTC for his new contract. I think this is exactly what the hold up is. He is probably looking for a 2-3 year deal with a NTC as he won't want to uproot his family aga ...

Why are people hanging out at spurstalk at all?

The one thing that NHD has going for him is the shooting. Brooks and Dunn are our defenders, so it makes some sense to keep one of them out there…we might want Grayson/NHD playing offset minutes as well…of course what we could really use is a true starting PF, but we don’t have that yet.

Remember all those years when Charles Barkley would say about the Thunder: “They have a bright future. Unfortunately, we live in the present.”

Well the Thunder did win a title

It's a pretty promising future tbh, Williams, Green, Dunn, Oso, Maluach, Fleming are all 23 or younger, that's a whole lot better than the future we need last season with 😂 Better than last season for sure…but there’s still a lot of question marks there…I think this year will tell us a lot on where ...

Ott and Dunn both talking up Maluach as a shooter…

Well I also left off Mark Williams who is certainly comparable to year 2 Ayton…probably better. I also left off Grayson Allen who was better than rookie CamJ. I left off Royce. Jalen Green didn’t have a counterpart. Dillon Brooks is better than Kelly Oubre(in fact that’s who we really wanted anyways) ...

Ayton with no motor/love of the game issues…or aversion to contact.

We’re a long way off from being a contender anyways, so I don’t think it matters. The move is to try and turn this into a good team again and then strike if someone who can make us a contender becomes available again. We are the bubble suns again… Booker is our Booker Ott is our Monty Maluach is our ...

What about Allen & Richards for Kuminga? It would allow Golden State to re-sign Kuminga at about $22 million for the first year to make a sign & trade deal work. Well if we waive and stretch Beal at the assumed amount(he gives up 14m), then we don’t even have to include Richards. We can take back m ...

Getting this done today or tomorrow or next week doesn’t really matter at this point. We lost our opportunity to use the extra flexibility when it didn’t happen right out of the gate in free agency.

Well he has to give it up if he’s bought out…but he values the NTC, so he’s probably just being very picky…he was pretty picky in choosing us the first time Right, but if they are going to part ways no matter what, what's the issue? He can pick his team after he's waived, no? Not like he's gonna cha ...

Interesting, if the Suns part is already done, why we waiting on a Beal decision?

Beal probably won’t sign until he has his next move lined up.

This is a 2-way you guys…who cares Probably just a SL guy, right? I don’t think he’s on the summer league roster…he got a 2-way. He may not even be able to play yet. He had a procedure in October 2024 that was expected to sideline him a full year. I think it’s clearly a favor to Bartlestein, but I j ...
