Trading For Beal BURNED The Suns

Спорт

Anthony Edwards took Phoenix's lunch and danced on the Suns' grave during Minnesota's first-round sweep, and that got all the headlines.
But the truth is that the Timberwolves were just a better-built team, and everyone should've seen it coming.
Trading for Bradley Beal absolutely sunk the Suns, and there's nothing they can do about it going forward ... well, almost nothing.

    For those who somehow still don't get how historically bad Beal's contract is, here's a list of all NBA players to ever receive a no trade clause in their contract: Carmelo, Kobe, Duncan, Garnett, LeBron, Dirk, David Robinson, Stockton, D Wade.... and Bradley Beal

    Been a Phx fan for almost 15 years... this is the first season I really didn't like watching them play. I didn't care they lost either. I hate teams without an identity. Basketball is a team sport, the team has to have a cohesive game plan. This your turn, my turn, bs offense that teams loaded with starts do is infuriating. It's like they don't know how to make the pieces fit.... maybe you just can't make them fit, in which case it is the GMs fault. shoutout to Beal's agent, that no trade clause is going to make this situation unsolvable

    They’re a team without anyone to run the offense or give them any sort of identity outside of KD, Booker, and Beal playing the whole “Your turn, my turn” game and winging every possession. They’ve got plenty of talent and skill, with nobody there to direct the team on the court. Absolutely zero defense on that team too

    The thing in the NBA is oftentimes theres more than 1 team with a problem at once…. and sometimes the solution is trading one problem for another problem. And usually those teams are star heavy but dysfunctional contending teams ie: Lakers, Suns, Heat, Bucks, Sixers, Clippers… I could see Beal going to any of those teams

    I don’t know why KD keeps thinking he can go to teams without defensive identity or a point guard he can trust. His most successful stints were with top PGs in the league (Westbrook & Curry) along an all defensive Power Forward who could switch easily (Ibaka & Draymond) Because yes, you can be a 7 foot leading scorer and lead your teams in assists-Kareem did it in Milwaukee. But that’s almost never the path to success, because Kareem’s team was bad when he did that. If freaking Kareem Abdul-Jabbar can trust his point guards, why can’t KD?!

    The Beal trade did nothing but help. People dont get this. Even with CP3's salary off the books the Suns would still be on the second apron, still no cap space. The roster would be the same just with an old CP3 that doesnt even play in the playoffs anyway. Getting Beal was a free upgrade over CP3. They didnt surrender anything other than CP3 and Shamet and some draft swaps that had already been traded so those were really bad drafts anyway. The Suns' demise actually was accelerating the timeline by trading for KD.

    No without CP3 they wouldn't have been over the 2nd apron. They would only have been over the 1st apron. You don't understand. The problem isn't with trading CP3. The problem is trading for Beal because his contract puts them in a complete bind with no flexibility. They would have been better off for trading CP3 for one or two solid role players.

    The problem is the suns doesnt know what they are doing. Bookers first playoff appearance was 2021 and they made the nba finals. 2022 2nd round exit. 2023 2nd round exit. 2024 1st round exit. Booker isnt even the one who made a diff to bring the suns in a playoff run. Its CP3. The moment he arrive in phx. They playoff contender to championship contender. Now they fck up their own team and the owner doesnt believe it.
