We have nothing to interest Brooklyn anyways. We aren’t getting Claxton

Don’t get me wrong Claxton is better with a higher ceiling, but peak Eubanks, which we’ve seen the last two games isn’t that far of an approximation off of what Claxton would provide.

The Bridges to Phoenix smoke continues:

https://sports.yahoo.com/this-years-nba ... 54803.html
As for Charlotte wing Miles Bridges, the Phoenix Suns continue to be described by league personnel as the team most motivated to land the Michigan State product. And it should be noted that Bridges hails from the same Spartans program that Phoenix owner Mat Ishbia was a part of under legendary head coach Tom Izzo. Bridges would add a sturdy forward that Phoenix’s roster currently lacks and could allow the Suns to deploy more effective small-ball lineups with Kevin Durant at the five.
What all would we have to actually give up to make that happen? What path is there realistically? I just don't see it.
Salary wise it would take Little and a vet min…then we’ve got 5 2nds to trade. Though at least one of those is a fake 2nd. Maybe Goodwin would be intriguing to them?
I just don't understand why they'd take that pile of garbage... Regardless of the PR issues he's had, he still has decent talent.
I read that and didn't know whether you were talking about the Suns or Hornets.

So I was probably wrong about the anti-Bridges people needing not to worry. This smells an awful lot like preemptive damage control.

Remember when Grayson Allen was considered the worst person in the NBA, where fans threatened to stop being a fan of their team if the team brought him in?
He didn't beat women in front of their children.

You're absolutely correct. That didn't matter to the people that thought he was the worst person ever at the time.

He might’ve been watching the local broadcast. He also does playback games a lot where he’s commenting during the game.

I just don't see the similarity. One thought to be a dirty player on the court. Another was a monster off of it.

For what it's worth, I think Draymond is a saint compared to Bridges.
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
