I’ll take Biz over Eubanks any day

I don't think Eubanks is as bad as you would think from this message board, but Biz would definitely bring some size and better defensive skills. I don't know if I'd go so far as to waive Eubanks, but if there's a way to bring back Biz, I'd be all for it.

At the end of the day, I think Bol is going to end up taking over the backup C spot.

Lost season for the Grizz. Bad juju from Ja.

Book is at least in the top 10…

Haliburton leading the guard vote is weird to me…like fans are getting it right for once? I’m not used to a player on a small market team being correctly voted for in all-star voting.

Most thought it would be higher but this is the standard fine I think.

Appreciated his rant
Thought it would be more

I'm hoping we are not feeling similarly tonight

Eubanks is more useful than Bismack. I'd add Biz for spots of defense and drop someone else from the bench.

looks like Dejounte Murray is available. i don't know anything about him. We could use a 6'5 point guard. His stats show just 5 assists per game. Can he play D?

we do have some assets with Gordon and Allen playing well

We just don’t have the contract to get DeJounte

Biz would help our interior D but he was unplayable in the last 2 playoffs.

Bradley Beal. Of course the NTC is a factor, but he's the pathway to a "major" shake up even though it's unlikely to be Murray.

Ya the NTC is gonna keep that from happening…I’m not even considering a Beal trade because it’s impossible and if it were to happen it would be under his terms again.

Beal at 2 with Trae and Booker back at 2 with Murray is a much better fit, but Atlanta isn't touching that contract.

Ya it makes some sense, but Beal also isn’t going to AtlantA

Portland down 62 to Thunder starting the 4th…118-56

I think Beal has a lot of pride and would see the value in taking on a bigger role like he had in Washington if this run in Phoenix just isn't working, and I wouldn't be shocked if that conclusion was reached by this summer.

OTOH, he seems like he doesn't really want to move teams much in general. He over stayed in Washington by consensus of the general NBA media.

Only if the Suns take back the Hawks bad contract, DeAndre Hunter.

I'll eat my own ass if that happens.

I'm not sure how Ishbia feels about that but maybe we can get it into the deal.
