ESPN really talking about the lakers getting both KD and Kyrie…like somehow AD, Westbrook and 2 1sts beats our offer? Lol
Well I think you have to consider that
1) Brooklyn really wants Irving gone.
2) Anthony Davis is better than anything the Suns have to offer.
Remember, this is the same franchise that traded for Ben Simmons. I think they would be perfectly fine with AD's injury issues.
They were more or less coerced into that. Not disputing your point about AD being better than any Suns offer.

Yes AD when healthy is better than anything suns can offer, but I just don’t see it. I’d much rather have Ayton, Cam J, Bridges, and 2 extra 1sts

would you trade a 1st rounder for Royce O'Neale?

Orlando signed Mo Bamba. Which means they are out on Ayton too.

Deandre Ayton needs to fire his agent.

Too bad, decent deal too. Would’ve taken him if we lose DA

Yeah. Who is left that has anywhere near 25-30M in cap space and a need for a center?

So I think Brooklyn's thinking isn't quite aligned with what you or I might value

Perhaps, I still think that’s not the whole story on the Royce move…but maybe they are crazy

It wasn't just his agent telling him he was a max player. Remember many rival execs were shocked the Suns did not max him last summer. In fact, before last offseason, everyone thought he would be extended at the max after the Finals run. And he may still get the max this year, just have to wait and see.

It doesn't have to be a team with cap space, it could be a sign-and-trade with any team.

Really no one. San Antonio could still be an option, but it would be a sign and trade.

Not bad for a guy who was undrafted. (I think this is an overpay.)
