lol I mean kinda…
We weren't winning anything with KD and the mentality he showed today when he found out he got traded summed up why.

We won't win anything with the players we got in return but at the very least they might put a bit more effort in. We also have several contracts to trade (should we wish) rather than one which hopefully gives us a bit more flexibility.

When I'm feeling down about the suns I always go to Twitter and go to flex's account for some unfiltered positivity. Even if it is maniacally over the top.

Are we absolutely sure it's not MarShon Brooks that's part of this trade?
I got a good laugh out of this one. Blast from the past.

This had better be a busy summer because they've got a lot of work to do.

Obviously smart for the Rockets to hold onto as many assets as they could. Now they can throw Jabari, Reed, Whitmore, Eason into a potential deal for Giannis.

It’s just depressing the level of incompetence of our front office.

How we didn't get even 1 of those 4 is beyond me.

Not being stuck with Jalen Green would be nice. Cutting salary would have been good too.

One bright spot is that I get to see Houston more than any other team, and now I don't have to suffer through 82-games of low bball IQ from Dillon Brooks and Jalen Green. They were brutal.

Beal getting traded or bought out will be the way I think. I am no fan of Green but this team will also just need some bodies. I fully expect them to draft all 4 players next week because they gotta clear off a bunch of trash.

He takes them way up the watchability ladder. Gotta see if Ime lets him just half ass passes all over the court like Bud did.
