More than Ayton? Beal has disappointed for sure, but a lot is just bad fit. We knew he was injury prone when we got him. He’s also produced at a decent level when he’s played. Ayton as a number 1 pick that got a max deal is more disappointing to me.

There have been worse Suns, and assholes on the team. But nobody has been a bigger disappointment when you look at games available, impact on the team, compared to salary and expectations when acquired.
Ayton? He was supposed to be a generational center. He was supposed to be worth drafting over Luka.

You guys are nuts. Ayton was spectacular in our finals run. You quickly forget. He peaked and it's Sarvers fault for matching a max contract instead of trading.
Beal hasn't given us shit since he got here on a $50M contract

He can't play more than a 10 game stretch. He's the biggest pussy this team has ever had

DA missed his Covid test…he quit on the team multiple times…took his diuretic to mask marijuana…Routinely wandered around aimlessly on the court. He was 7 feet tall and would sometimes play 30 minutes and get 8 and 4.. Beal is a bad fit and is injury prone…I don’t think he’s anywhere close to the most disappointing. Josh Jackson also comes to mind…though at least we didn’t pay him. Remember Brandon Knight?

Brandon Knight wasn't a disappointment. I knew trading for BASE was idiotic the moment we announced the deal.

Who's BASE? Also, Beal is trash. Always playful and goofy, always hurt from some bullshit. It's kind of alarming his demeanor and seeming lack of care on the court because he's pretty good in front of the mic, unlike Ayton.

What about giving him a huge 5 year deal after trading for him?

Ayton was spectacular in the first 2 rounds of the finals run. He disappeared in the WCF and finals. He peaked with the valley-oop.

Of the six finals games he had one dud.
Game 1 he had 22/19
Game 2 he had 10/11/4/3/2
Game 3 he had 18/9/3
Game 4 he had 6/17/5/3
Game 5 he had 20/10/1/1/2
Game 6 he had 12/6/1/2/2
Come on. Don't just blindly hate bro. Respect that he was arguably our MVP in the playoff run. CP3 said it himself.

Yup and it was only to get his pay day… then he promptly crapped the bed.

It’s been a while and there are people reading this who weren’t here then, so I’ll fill you in on the inside joke.
McD was always talking about how Knight was almost an All-Star in the East. I mocked him for this, called Knight AASE and tried to make it happen like fetch, but it didn’t catch on. Then McD dropped the phrase “borderline All-Star in the East” in a press conference, and I guess BASE makes for a better acronym, because it caught on.

Sure but he was a huge reason why we made it to the finals and went up 2-0.
He got us somewhere we've only been twice in my lifetime. Beal hasn't gotten us ANYWHERE and can't even manage to just stay available
