He was around way way before anything about CP3.
I don’t doubt that, but not on a large scale. He didn’t become known to all of suns fans until CP3
Didn't he start out as a frequent call-in guest to the Suns postgame radio show hosted by Jon Bloom?
I believe so, but that’s not something all suns fans listen to. Did you know who he was before CP3?
Yeah, I heard him on my way home from the arena nearly every game during the Nash era.
I assumed you did, but superbone lived in California and wouldn’t have been listening to a local radio show…I just don’t think Flex was widely known until CP3

Some of us do not like being fed BS.
Come on, we all know that's not true. Those same some of you, used to crave that for breakfast lunch and dinner. Then said, "Yummy, yum, may I have more?".
What do you mean? I have never liked Flex nor taken any stock in what he has to say.

He's always been a loser calling into postgame shows and using a self proclaimed nickname, and he always will be a loser. Why do I hate him? Because he's a con man. An absolute dork living in an apartment in Mesa AZ trying to pretend he's Woj.

Deandre Ayton is a generational center.
That was his opinion and no one here believed that. We all thought it was nonsense.

He didn't give himself that name. His name is Felix, and he told the guy talking calls his name was Felix, but the guy screening calls thought he said Flex. That's how he got the nickname. It wasn't him. Who cares were he lives?

Ya it’s posturing…but I still don’t think anything will get Miami to take Beal from us.

That's Miami putting out a leak to get the Suns nervous so that they'll fork over the 2031 1st.

Can we get top 20 protection? I’d be willing to give up a pick at the end of the round. The question is what we can give them instead if it’s top 20, since ’32 isn’t on the table.

It’s just wishful thinking if we’re trying to get Jimmy without including 2031 unprotected. Why would Miami do that trade?

The whole reason Jimmy wants out is because Miami doesn’t want to pay him…so why would they trade him for a worse player that is already signed to the contract they don’t want to give Jimmy?

I think it has to be a 3 team deal with Beal going somewhere else. Even then, the 2031 pick is going to be in it…I’m just hoping we don’t give up Dunn and Oso.

It's not for him, it just seems like you all could do and be better.

I don’t want to give up ‘31.

I could be talked into giving up if Miami gives up few 2nds.


Don’t tell me why Miami would do that cuz ‘31 is still more significant asset than a few 2nds.

Beal, ‘31 (no protections)

For Butler, Richardson, 3 2nds

Gives us some little ammo to “fix” center maybe give us another wing too.

I think Beal is the bigger issue. Miami doesn’t want him and his contract

IMO if or when this trade happens, it won’t be a simple Beal for Jimmy straight up. It probably be a 3 team or 4 team deal, where Miami gets multiple different pieces or assets. Beal will go to Miami probably but it’ll be more pieces with him. That’s just my speculation tho, maybe wishful thinking.
