    AYTON TRADED!

    Yep. I remember the huge disappointment I had at trading Gilliam. I was so excited we got him with the second pick and I had such high hopes. It was the realization that he was a bust and we had to move on. Rambis was not nearly the talent, but he was an incredibly hard worker and great for...

    AYTON TRADED!

    I think it's a horrible trade, but this is clearly a "there is more behind the scenes" situation. I am not sure I care that much anymore.

    AYTON TRADED!

    He was immature and did dirty stuff out of frustration. Allen is not so much calculated dirty like Pat Bev. Grayson does not control his temper. Haven't seen much about his problems recently, although I have not been following really either.

    AYTON TRADED!

    Anyone remember the Armen Gilliam for Kurt Rambis trade? I kinda feel like that.

    AYTON TRADED!

    We can take him! Jrue would be perfect here!

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    I don't see anything here that includes Ayton that makes sense to me. Unless there are significant picks in the compensation. But with the apron thing, do picks you trade for go to the end of the first round as well?

    OT-Adam Silver speaks about the Kevin Porter situation.

    Suns have lots of players and salary. Trade for him, take the picks, then cut him. Add a few picks to the bare cupboard over the next few years. Probably easier said than done since most of those Suns salaries are either players they want to keep or new signees.

    2023 Phoenix Suns Offseason

    HOnestly. We should be able to get SOMEONE from this site on there. Cheese would add some spice to that group.

    New Owner - Mat Ishbia

    I guess it does not matter what either of us thinks. What matters is what it says.

    Really. I doubt that but I haven't read the new rules.

    2023 FIBA World Cup

    This guy will be that feel-good fan favorite for the Suns this year. He will be the one that is sort of the team mascot that everyone cheers for.

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    It's not even misspeaking. This like a wife's ability to turn every compliment you give her into an argument.

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    Not a dis. Just because he really likes these teammates does not mean he does not like the others. Besides. He did not say "the best players". There is a special comraderie playing for a national team, especially from a small country like the Bahamas. They have had more success than that...

    Good grief. August. Boredom. Gotta create controversy I guess.

    The Starting 5

    Let's say Yuta is the right chemistry with the first group with hustle defense and that corner 3 that does not miss. Then off the bench comes Goodwin, Gordon, KBD, Bol, and Eubanks. The second unit has a nice mix of defense and offense too. Nice, not scary, but ok.

    The Starting 5

    If these stats are true, then Yuta is the obvious choice. The 5th starter is going to be a corner shooter in the offense and Yuta is just insane from there. However, Bol might be a dark horse. If he fashions himself as a defensive specialist, he can cover a lot of ground. Dark horse though...

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    Maybe getting in good cardo shape is helping DA with aggressiveness. Maybe?

    It also may be that Ayton has always had a bit of a conditioning problem. He did seem to tire often and often called to be taken out. If he has lost weight and really has gotten in good cardio shape, he might be really feeling improved.

    New Owner - Mat Ishbia

    Beale has four years left (FA summer of 27), KD has three (FA summer of 26), Ayton has three (FA summer of 26), Book has five (FA summer of 28). The rest of our roster is basically low-cost, one-year deals. A lot of money will come off the books over those three years (26-28). As long as...

    We are all wealthy compared to about 90% of the people on the planet. I hope they don't all feel that way.

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    Monty killed DA as a player, and with Monty gone, he will develop into the player he was meant to be. I hope.

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    Ha! He grew up there. A lot of people purposefully lose their home accent when living in the US, but revert to it when they go back home. "It's not rocket surgery"

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    Yep. Its the perfect time for a new coach. A coach who loves centers, and Ayton is looking really lean. He might play more like a pf this year--not that he will play pf of course.

    Should Ayton be Traded?

    Ah. I wouldn't go that far. He is VERY lean though. Maybe a little too much so.
