Durant traded to Rockets

[TOO]

Do we get the full MLE now?

[Split T]

I don’t think we even cut salary

[ShelC]

This is a franchise crippling trade. We got essentially the worst of all rumored trades. We got not a single young player back with any kind of hope or promise. We got only one middling draft pick back. Houston didn't have to give up Jabari or Whitmore or Sheppard.

Absolutely pathetic negotiating from the Suns FO. They got completely hustled here. They should all resign in embarrassment.

I hope you guys realize that we are now going to be a really, really bad team through at least 2032. We are completely fucked now.

They'll give themselves raises and extensions.

Woohoo.

Isn't that on par for much of their current history?
I revel in high draft picks; I'm stoked!
Let's all hope for another franchise altering #1 overall pick

[Wally_West]

I think we keeping Jalen and Dillon

[Wally_West]

Just saw this maaaaaan wtf

I don’t know that I’d call that 10th pick middling…it’s decent. I think this is a low value outcome, but honestly at best we were hoping for 1 more guy? Like Cam Whitmore turns this from franchise crippling to good value?

The franchise crippling trades already happened…this actually does set us up better than keeping Durant…it’s not great, I don’t like it that much, but it’s far from franchise crippling…

And apparently all Miami was offering was Wiggins, 20 and salary…you gotta remember that those rumored trades were almost certainly not true.

Other than Toronto's #9 this was the best pick we could hope to get. And it our own too. But we really should have gotten at least one more of our future 1sts. If we had this wouldn't have been a bad trade at all.

Hopefully we can cut salary when we trade Grayson and Royce for draft assets. I was joking but now I fully believe we are gonna trade Beal with a treasure trove of 2nds attached.

Wow, over the top much? Take a breath, dude.

I think I would have rather just kept KD

At the very least Beal is relegated as a bench player

[Wally_West]

Beal and multiple 2nds to the Bulls for Zack Collins, Patrick Williams and Jalen Smith??? Who’s says no?

[ShelC]

I had that as my KD trade.

[JJ Slim]

Ok, the first domino has fallen. It still remains to see what other changes are going to be made. If we keep both Green and Brooks lets see what Ott can do with them. We might be surprised (hopefully in a good way).

[SunsSince92]

So as things stand

PG - Booker /Gillespie
SG - Green /Beal
SF - Brooks/Dunn
PF - Oso?
C - Richards

Aside from that we have Allen, O'neale, Bridges, Martin.

Wow.......
