They say the better team always wins a 7 game series. But the Mavs were clearly not the better team. We just quit. Weird that there haven't been any substantial rumors about it.
Yep, I can't think of a more disappointing exit in the history of my Suns' fandom. At least previous teams fought until the end and weren't totally humiliated.
And played well and simply lost to better teams. Arguably the worst choke in Suns history
More click bait stuff. Intriguing ideas. Our backcourt would be unguardable. With no center wreaking l havoc, I’m not sure how’d it would work. We’d be Warriors copycat. https://thesportsplace.net/suns-emerge- ... dley-beal/
Beal actually seems like one of the more obtainable stars. Believe Ayton plus a couple expiring works straight up for Beal as well. If Washington wants to retool, Ayton isn’t a bad place to start.
I love all these "Ayton is garbage but we can trade him for a star" scenarios.
Personally, there's only one player in the NBA that I would trade Ayton for.
James Harden? That would be a lot of guards in our backcourt. I don't know how I feel about that.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

The 1981 loss to Kansas City was pretty humiliating.

NOBODY IS SAYING AYTON IS GARBAGE! ALMOST EVERYONE HERE AGREES HE IS A TOP 5 CENTER IN THE LEAGUE!
So, like Dave King was saying, he's somewhere around the 30s in overall NBA rankings, but you don't want to pay him the 35th highest salary? And everyone wonders why he feels disrespected?

He is not in the 30s for overall ranking. That would mean that if you did a re-draft for the entire league, some GM would seriously consider taking him as their 1st pick, and nearly every GM would take him as their 2nd. He isn't close to that on his current contract, much less as a ~30-35M/year player.
