    One hinky aspect of a Suns deal is the familial ties





    And if you don't know what "hinky" is, you're not alone

    Yeah. Expiring contracts suddenly have value again.

    right after we drop a 50 million dollar version.

    sorry, this is ridiculous. and again...the rules allow, so let it go. but our franchise was tanked for almost a full decade because people were outraged about similar things.

    Trent ain’t happening because it would hard cap us- I’m not a huge Buddy fan, but I would do that trade.

    The Turner and Hooch deal is dead, unless we get another first in the teens back in a DLo deal.

    It’s outrageous how blatant the double standards are.

    we’d have to offer AD, Reaves, Vando and 4 picks for any mid tier guy. Lol


    Luckily we are back in a position of strength and can focus on resigning our guys and smaller moves.

    yeah, i'm just remembering how two unprotected picks were required to move russ's expiring, but paul and lowry will suffice to get beal.

    of course, had we traded russ for beal, beal would have become overpaid and useless immediately.

    Not that they can trade. They can offer two swaps and then 2nds only

    If the Suns miss on Beal, they can have D'Angelo and Bamba for Ayton. I hear that D'Angelo and Booker are pretty tight. Then we could move Ayton and Beasley on to Indiana, for Turner and Hield.

    why wouldn't phx and indy just complete the swap without us, with phx avoiding the hard cap in the process? they can just keep cp3 in this case, too.

    Because D'Angelo is a big prize..so I'm told, and I still want Myles Turner. Lol. Hard cap..Meh..The Suns will still stay under 179.5M.

    As long as it doesn't help the Lakers, folks are cool with just about anything.

    Petty haters. Even the f***ing media is using double standards when it comes to us. I might be paranoid but tell me im wrong?

    Damn, they really did it
    I don't think it works and probably CP3 will really be a Laker. And Dlo just lost leverage

    Booker to LA 26
