Shams: Suns trade for Miles Bridges

[Superbone]

that's not true. The Celtics made their trade a couple days ago and they've been flapping their gum freely about it since it went down.

“He Already Came In”: Celtics President Brad Stevens Explains Why He Chose Paul George Over Jaylen Brown

The Celtics knew trading away Jaylen Brown, a proven Finals MVP, would trigger backlash. No explanation could justify replacing a 29-year-old coming off an MVP-caliber season with a 36-year-old Paul George.

The Suns look like freaking cowards right now waiting this long to talk about why they willfully are bringing a guy who brutally beat a woman a couple years ago, while sending off another unprotected first round pick in the process.

It is absolutely true. You can't compare the Celtics' trade or any other trade for that matter. Every trade is not equal. When it is official, the Suns will have a press conference. And a very uncomfortable press conference it will be.

Has the trade been made official? I don't know if I've seen that. I agree, the Suns do look bad for not addressing it if the trade has indeed happened.

I only ask because if it isn't official, we could point to Grayson's health, maybe he didn't pass the physical yet or something?

You haven't. And neither has Cheese.

What are you talking about? You claimed we can't talk about it because it's not official until July 9th with the league year. The same is true for the Celtics and THEY ARE STILL COMMENTING ON IT.

We CAN talk about it. We're just choosing not to and look like freaking cowards for doing so.

 

[Superbone]

I'm sure the Suns are preparing for how they are going to handle the press conference. It is NOT going to be an easy one.

You really think they're not going to talk about it? Not going to have a press conference?

no - i was wrong about the league year stuff. I thought the July 9th date was a league date for all trades to officially go through, re: Celts talking about their trade. my bad there.

I'm sure they're going to talk about it and rationalize how he fits their culture and look like idiots in the process. I'm just curious what the hold up is here compared to other trades that have gone thru already.

Now, if they don't have a PC this week, I'm with you.

Most likely.

They can't just make a statement and then not allow follow up questions. It's going to be a very uncomfortable press conference. On the other hand, I can't see them having Bridges sit up there and take question after question about it.

Mat Ishbia and Brian Gregory need to be held accountable for how this meshes with their high character player mantra they have been preaching. They are the ones that traded for Bridges so they should take the brunt of it.

Anyway, it's all going to be very interesting. Do the Suns dare make an opening statement about it and then not allow further questions regarding it? How do y'all see it going down?

From what I can see, the moratorium ended yesterday, so they can speak about it now if they wanted to.

Maybe they’ll send newly extended Josh Bartlestein up there to take the bullets.
