All true. But you can easily look at the other side of it too. I am looking at it from the owners view and you from the players. All these things have come together from both sides. I remember people saying free agency would never happen because why would the owners ever give up their control? Things are always one way, until they are not.

The owners didn’t give up control. They were FORCED to give up control by the courts/government because of something effected the entirety of the league.
Not even worth arguing. This is a non-thing.
This whole thing is getting WAY out of hand. I said if it went to the worst possible outcome, and I kept putting IF in CAPS, and explaining the worst possible outcome, then owners would take issue. True if it's just the Suns problem no-one cares. If it goes Viral with Bradley Beal continuing to go tone deaf with fans, and saying he doesn't give an F, fans could start booing him in games, and saying nasty things like a fan already has. I could see where if this goes bad, owners wouldn't stand for that.
I understand if we trade Beal we have to give up draft picks. I say just be patient. We really only have this upcoming season we have to have him on the team. Then we are down to where we could buy out and waive reasonably, or just plain waive him after another half season. He would be an expiring contract at that point and we might get lucky. We have to quit jettisoning our picks. We have eaten the majority of his contract, now is the time to be patient. Worst case scenario we do the buy out and stretch this season, and eat $17 million in dead money for five seasons. I am in the camp it sucks having him. There's a saying in the Army, embrace the suck. That's what the Suns need to do. Just build like he's a bonus piece at best, but don't expect anything out of him.
Kyrie should be back by next season’s playoffs which is all that matters for Dallas. Plus Beal has one more year on his deal and it’s a $57m player option and he’s not a sure thing to be healthy. Dallas should go the other way and trade AD for assets that fit Flagg’s timeline.
100% guarantee. I really can't think of a situation Beal fits, unless he takes a buy out. In theory if another team is only paying him an MLE, then what he brings, even with missing games for injury, makes a lot more sense. I think we are stuck with Beal. We just have to see how long the Suns will be patient on this.
Kyrie is past his prime and in the last year of his deal so I don’t think it’s much of a risk. Murray was a foundational piece for Denver going forward. Would be hilarious if Nico did another asinine shortsighted trade like Flagg and fillers for Giannis.

I would think they'd want to make the KD trade before the draft unless we're not getting any picks back but that would be ridiculous. The draft is on the 25th (& 26th) of this month.
Because they’re keeping Booker, my guess is they look for rotation pieces over picks to “rebook” even though it’s obvious they need to straight up rebuild.
