So, you wouldn't trade this package for Durant?

I hate super teams, but we all would loved it if the Suns do it. And once the super Heat was born, the customary tradition of win it all by yourself was over. Blame it on the millenials :lol:

Depends on the players. I wouldn't be crazy about LeBron James wearing a Suns uniform. I also wouldn't want my team to become just some hype machine.

Sure, but there is risk involved for Golden State. Their front line is going to be thin, and they're in the position the Suns where when they were using Joe Kleine and Danny Schayes as their starting center.

Dallas and Barnes have agreed to a 4-year, $94 million contract.

Which is, of course, idiotic.

So I wonder what OKC can get for crazy Russell.

Send him to the Lakers for D'Angelo Russell?

You are right. I remember to summers ago, I was torn amid all the courting to Lebron, I also dislike the guy. The hype thing, I guess it comes with the turf, that All Star game the year SSOL took the league by storm, was a clear example of the league milking whatever hype they can find.

I don't love it; I just don't hate it. In fact, I specifically said, "Is this my preference? No."

From Warriors POV, I get it, and I don't have an issue it.

If you have a chance to get a top 5 player in the league you take it. Even if you already have a top 5 player in the league. Even if you already have 2.
Go Suns!

It seems as though he'll never be happy unless the Suns do exactly as he says.

I guess I'd rather him at 4/94 than Parsons on the same deal, but... ugh.
