Full MLE would be pretty great, I'll take 15m or whatever that is now over having Beal waste away doing nothing.

The time to do that was the beginning of FA. Everyone worth spending the MLE on is now signed. You want to pay who MLE money exactly?

My hope is he goes out and drops 18/12 this year in a contract year and forces the LakeShow to give him a max deal. That would be absolutely the best thing he would have done for us as our #1 draft pick

It is a factor.

He's 23. He's not close to his prime. Hes a young guy who has 10 years+ left in this league if healthy. He has so much room for growth. We talk about him like we acquired Joel Embiid.

We have officially entered the "must be on mushrooms" part of the offseason when we complain that a 23-year-old is a vet!! That was basically Cam Johnson's age when we drafted him dude. Williams is still just a rising star. We have an established rising star at center and drafted a young man who has ...

At this point, my hope is anything other than a wave and stretch

They were in the process of hanging it in the rafters and then in honor of KD they dropped it and proceeded to blame everyone else for losing it

I don't want either of them. Royce is short and extremely streaky from 3 and doesn't offer anything else despite this board thinking he's good at defense.

Grayson is elite from 3, but there's a lot of players out there that shoot 40% from 3 nowadays. And he makes Royce look like he's a good defender

It’s a bit concerning that we are more than 3 days into free agency and the Suns have not signed a single NBA free agent.

The Suns basically have a full roster.

My hope is that we flip Royce and Allen for draft capital and a younger guard

Just tell Brad to stay home for the year if he's not going to waive his NTC to a team willing to trade for him.

Revisit it next offseason when he's an expiring

It’s possible the death of his brother had a big impact on his mental health, which impacted his ability to be a head coach. Possibly. He didn't seem to really give a shit about the Suns or his job, I get it, when I lost my mom my perspective on a lot of things changed. I forgot that happened to h ...

KEEP your eyes out for a certain former Suns guard with a very treadmill mentality. I'm not saying it will happen but it might happen or not, this stuff takes time yall but I'm telling you and not telling you at the same time

So dumb. I do not understand the strategy at all. If they were going to do it, why wouldn't they do it right as free agency began so they could utilize the savings? What is the point now? Just keep him and try to salvage his value or keep him home until he decides that he's willing to be traded ...

Thibs me!!!!

I'd rather talk politics than about this sad sack of shit former #1 pick That's fine. You do not need to talk about him; nobody is asking or forcing you to. I am willing to moderate or block things if they are super problematic to the health of the board (such as closing the Politics section), but ...

Jalen Bridges signed to play Summer League with the Celtics. Bummer - he was promising in the Summer League for us and decent in the G-League, but looked totally overwhelmed in all of his NBA minutes. Well the D part of the supposed 3D guy he was expected to be never materialized. Neither did the 3 ...

I propose that the Ayton name be auto censored if he signs with the Lakers. I don't wanna hear a fucking peep about that lazy piece of shit ever again. Thanks. No? Ok, guess I'll just mute the entire forum. GGs. DA is an NBA player, a former Sun, who was a free agent and just got signed a few hours ...

At this point a waive and stretch of Beal isn't happening. If they were going to do that they would've done it prior to all these free agents getting signed so they could make moves.

It's either going to be a trade, a buy out or nothing at all.

Bruce Brown was a vet min signing by the way…so Denver still has the MLE…Beal landing spot after a buyout? I’m gonna be sick to my stomach if we stretch him for five years. So gross. If we don't get under the second apron we're looking at penalties like our 2032 first round pick getting pushed to th ...

Wish we could manage to get Josh Giddey somehow
