Re: 2025 Suns Offeason News

Trade KD to Detroit for Ausar, picks and other assets. Trade Booker to Houston for Amen, picks and salary filler.

New version of the Morris brothers, with more skill and less attitude!

Time to give Kevin Young a call and make him an offer he can't refuse?

Re: Movies / TV Shows

I know I'm probably a little late since it came out 2 years ago, but has anyone watched Kaleidoscope on Netflix with Giancarlo Esposito? Wife and I binge watched the entire thing this past Saturday since it was cold and rainy. Such a good show. Never even heard of it! So without giving anything ...

Re: Are The Suns Cursed? Book it!

I’d argue this team has zero leader…. Books not a leader just like KD. They’re just hoopers through and through and don’t want responsibility of anyone else. This is an interesting comment. I do agree with your comment that we lack something from our team leaders, and it makes me think about the nat ...

Re: The Kevin Durant Problem

I think any KD-Houston trade will ultimately be something along the lines of Green, Smith, Eason or Whitmore and 2 of our picks back. I actually wouldn't mind that, as we'd get much younger/more athletic. Then move off of Royce and/or Grayson for a lower-salaried big and whatever draft compensation ...

Re: Suns News: Week 21 (3/10 - 3/16)

I thought it was interesting that there was insinuation that Beal would be more amenable to waiving his NTC in the offseason since he didn't want to uproot his family during the season. One can only hope.

Really long ESPN article on the Suns with quotes from Booker and Ishbia. Any Booker trade speculation can end. Too long to paste, but a good read.

I've visited Barbados twice and I'm pretty sure it's bay-jun, but please correct me if I'm wrong, bajanguy.

You're going to host a Suns title party in Barbados for us all when it eventually happens, right?

ESPN Insider article about Durant's future with 4 proposed deals. The Heat and Knicks deals are gross. I might be ok with the Dallas and Houston ones I suppose. Latest on Durant in Phoenix Durant is set to enter the last year of a four-year, $198 million extension he signed in Brooklyn. And while he ...

Gambo mentioned Houston and sending back Jalen Green, Tari Eason, and Jabari Smith along with 2 picks (hopefully ours back). Not a bad haul, but not the greatest.

Re: Off-season Plans

Would we entertain sending KD to Dallas for package like PJ Washington, Lively, Gafford and picks? I would do the Dallas trade for sure Absolutely, but there would need to be other salary filler to make it work. Caleb Martin or Naji Marshall would have to in included, unless we took back Klay ...

Re: Off-season Plans

I think it'll have to be Booker to Houston; that's who they really want. So give them Booker for all the 1sts, plus hold out for at least one young blue chipper, don't just accept meh players like Jalen Green. KD will probably net us a disappointing return, but shop him to OKC, GSW, SAS, anybody ...

Re: The Kevin Durant Problem

Ishbia reminds me of Mark Cuban when he first bought the Mavs. Was spending like a maniac, improving facilities, trying to really put his stamp on the team. Cuban eventually learned to back off, and I think Ishbia will learn to do the same thing. Hopefully this season humbled him.

Re: Suns News: Week 19 (2/24 - 3/2)

No one has ever said what the offer was though. Interesting how far off James Jones was from Sean Marks. I wonder what would have happened if we waited until the summer. Gambo has reported it for a long time, at least since shortly after the trade. I don’t recall him ever saying it was Mikal and C ...

25 games for misuse of a mild pain reliever, 30 games for beating the shit out of your spouse (Miles Bridges). Seems fair.

Not to mention that Camara would have been perfect for this team. (Athletic big, very good defensively) Huge mistake in giving him up in the Ayton trade.

Re: What went wrong?

I think Bud is at the point of throwing shit against the wall and seeing what sticks. I do think he is a better coach than Vogel. I don't think he's lost the team, you could tell last year they had tuned Vogel out. To me, the biggest thing that went wrong was getting Beal, which is obvious. KD and ...

Re: Off-season Plans

I hate to say this, but it's not a secret or even controversial to this board, but the whole team needs to be blown up. Everyone with some value needs to be shipped off. You'll probably need to keep Nurk until he's worth something next season with an expiring contract. You'll need to trade KD ...
