Shams: Suns trade for Miles Bridges

[Phrazbit]

nobody here condones domestic violence - we're not the ones who have to put out a mission statement regarding miles bridges

i didn't want miles - im not going to stick up for or defend him - i'm gonna keep it what it is

if you put your hands on a woman like that you're forever f***ed - as it should be - his rep was ruined - he was suspended and missed out on who knows how much money - crazy money

that's what you get - that and a ish ton of anger management - i saw the pics and i'm shocked he didn't get jail time - but who am i to judge?

that's where it gets tricky right? we as fans have the right and in some cases the responsibility to let ownership know what does and doesn't go

if ish had traded for miles bridges during the suspension - fresh off the ass whooping - before demonstrating (not just saying) he could get his life in order - you would have saw a much different hippie

the dude beat his wife infront of his kids - that will never change and it forever be out there

he now has to change and become an example to his kids - if playing in phoenix helps him do that and if he helps phoenix at the same time - that's what it is

he'll obviously stay under a microscope long after his probation ends - and deservedly so - i'm not compartmentalizing - i'm not justifying or condoning - and i'm not comparing pink pu$$y hats either

if trading quality character for violent offenders bothers you - that's good - it means you have your priorities in order - no "buts" at the end of this here paragraph

good morning asfn

The only time I will cheer for this pile of trash human is if he's being dragged off on a stretcher.

What makes this worse... I would hate this trade even if he wasn't a cowardly, woman beating pile of crap eating trash.

We gave up an unprotected pick and TWO players that I am not convinced are not better players in their own right.

The excuse I keep hearing is that we needed a power forward.. HE'S NOT A POWER FORWARD!

I guess I am in the doubtful camp. I was doubtful that Dillon Brooks was going to work. I know I read here people were worried about his character and the Suns. I am reserving judgement to see how this works. So far the Suns staff has been smarter than me. Not saying that's a high bar, LOL. It's a LONG off season.

Often overlooked in this trade, the Suns saved about $20 million in luxury tax. This likely was a huge factor.

I agree but he could play with Flemming as a SF

I'm not hating on the guy, I haven't lived his life and I don't understand the kind of relationship he apparently had. But I despise the fact this organization just made the move without doing some cleanup along the way. Tell us why he isn't human garbage, show us he's grown and moved beyond his crimes. But they did little of that, leaving us to look at the pictures and wonder why they thought it was a good idea to go after him.

And it's even more worrisome that we did this with a player that doesn't really move the needle.

Suns organization doesn't agree with you and ether do I.

Trying to figure out Mat Ishbia’s strategy.

As I look at it, I'd describe it as foundational opportunism. It’s about culture and development, yet he’s not afraid to throw the long pass whenever the opportunity arises.

Successful business people often operate this way. They are not afraid to take calculated risk.
