I'm all about the Suns starting to cash in their chips. I'm okay with giving up the Miami pick for a player you just know is going to be a great NBA player.

I just don't know where he fits on the team. Booker is at the 2. Jackson at the 3. I'm not giving up our best asset for someone that is destined for the bench long-term.

Unless they think he could start at the 4, which I'm skeptical. Or they slide Booker to the 1, which I'm also skeptical.

What a rollercoaster of a day. I will take Bridges over Donte + Miami pick. Really hope it has some protection. or wish it was the MIL pick.

I think everyone is gonna love Bridges. Just watch him play before we call this a disaster.
You are right. He does almost everything and is very intense. But that pick man.
3 more years of reading y'all lamenting a trade. Neat.
I get it. He doesn't have a contract in 2021. If you are in his spot, you make the move to keep your job.

Doesn’t this at least look like another trade in the works that will include one of our 3’s?
Seriously, if they are going to the lengths to shift a 3 year remote pick to move up and stack the 3 then surely we will be offloading one of them in a package to bring in a PG.
My bet is TJ is gone.

I think there will be plenty of minutes for Bridges..assuming we move Warren. Can never have too many wings, especially when they can defend multiple spots.

I think Lonnie in SA is going to be good.

We went from thinking we got MPJ to getting Donte D. Is this a JOKE.

F. F F F F F.

We have no PG, huge question marks at 4, and yet we draft another combo swing where Jackson and Booker will take the majority of minutes.

Unbelievable.
Sounds like the old Saucy
He's not wrong
You all are. Lol.

Bridges is almost a 50/40/90 guy on the wing who is an elite defender. He is a homerun acquisition.

Apparently Mikal still doesn't know about the trade is answering questions with Philly media. Also, he was ecstatic to be playing for his hometown team. Hopefully he's not too bummed out.

Well, it’s 2:30 here and way past my bedtime. But glad I got to watch the draft unfold, even if I was expecting us to be more active at the top of the draft after taking Ayton.
Lets see what the next trades have in store to get us a decent PG.
Enjoy the evening guys.

There will be a PG still available at 31. Holiday and Okobo probably gone, but Milton, Shamet, Melton, Brunson will probably all be there.

Smallball 4...so you'd got Jackson, Warren, Bridges, Bender and Chriss all vying for minutes between SF and PF.

Phenomenal.
