    Okay, with those bolded words spoken, we are officially ready to play the Jazz.

    I'm wondering if the Suns will somehow get a center as well. Also, is BS a code name for a team or player?

    Few teams can absorb the salaries of the Suns Big 3, certainly not contenders. However, look at what the Nets got for Mikal Bridges. Also, Kevin Durant should still have good trade value to a contender. I don't disagree about absorbing salaries for picks, but they are unlikely to be good...

    The Suns look to be mostly healthy for the game with the Jazz. Kevin Durant is listed as PROBABLE.

    If the Suns blow it up, it all comes down to much the Suns can get for Durant and Booker. Beal does not have any trade value unless the Suns attach a first round pick and perhaps a young player like Dunn. His future looks to be that of an expiring contract. As you are aware, the Suns will...

    I want to see what happens before the trade deadline and the opportunities that present itself this summer before jumping out of the plane. If the Suns can't fix the problem, that's another story. In regard to those who can't wait, I'm already in the checkout line.

    If the Suns owned their future draft picks and rights, it would be an easier call. Also, the Big 3 have albatross contracts attached to them. I'd like to see if the Suns can find a fix for the team before blowing it up. It's a long shot but not impossible. If the right trades came along, sure...

    Isn't this the truth. Perhaps if the Suns had a low post presence, opponents would quit extending their defense to create turnovers.

    There is no cure for the health of Nurkic, Beal and Durant, but the Suns might be able to put together a trade for a player like Isaiah Stewart or Robert Williams as examples.

    If the Suns were willing to trade Booker, the Suns would have a number of teams interested, not just Miami.

    The Suns record was previously good, but their weakness remains and is exposed. Reeling off another winning streak doesn't change things. I'm not opposed to a smaller trade, so long as the Suns fix their interior defense.

    If the Suns front office doesn't realize the problem, they better hire another GM in a hurry. Personally, I think they are trying to downplay the urgency.

    At this point in time, I'm willing to consider all the trade options, including any one of the Big 3. I think the Suns opened this can of worms when they traded for Durant and then followed it up with the trade for Beal.

    Even if the Suns string a bunch of wins together, we know there is a problem with the interior defense. It's not going away. The Big 3 doesn't solve this issue. Maybe the Suns want to see who becomes available in trade before making a decision.

    There is something that gave this trade rumor some legs. Unfortunately, we don't know all the details.

    I agree, unless it's Flex. :) My bookmarks in priority are Shams, Gambo and Gerald.

    I don't think anyone has said Miami wants Beal. Actually, Gambo said the opposite in 2023. IMO, the Suns would have to add assets like a first round pick or get another team involved to make it happen.

    This is true. I'm so happy the Suns forum has an insider at the Waffle House.

    Yes, Gambo confirmed the story by Shams was correct. This might help push a trade along down that the genie is out of the bottle.

    I'd like to see if the Suns can make a trade that fixes the hole in the middle before resorting to fire sales. The Suns front office overreacted when they traded for Durant. They shouldn't suddenly overreact again and jump to the other side of the boat. However, they do need to make a...

    If the Suns maintain their status quo (I'm not referring to only the Jimmy Butler trade rumor) I'm going to be extremely disappointed. The Suns problems are much bigger than the return of a star player.

    Suns 2024-2025 Season Discussions

    We agree, the Suns have a lot of redundant parts in the backcourt. That's why trading for Butler doesn't seem as farfetched as I initially viewed it. The trade works and it fills a need.

    I want something more long-lasting than the return of Durant. Injuries are an ongoing thing. I'd like to see the Suns find a fix for whatever that ails them. They need some toughness, particularly upfront.
