Devin Booker and Beal learned from point guards, CP3 and John Wall respectively........so they are combo guards now.
EG will then be released and sign with the Suns. Nuggets are still going to feast on these West teams despite all this movement, assuming they stay healthy.
Denver had statistically had one of the easiest championships ever. They played a 7 and 8 seed to win a ring.
This trade is dumb for the Suns unless they can somehow find someone to Ayton for some depth pieces. What position is Beal playing? Who's their PG? They have no toughness or inside presence. Can't see how they beat Denver in a 7 game series. They scored plenty of points this playoffs. They couldn't get stops. Now they just doubling down on offense.
Championships tend to look easy when you're far and away the best team in the league. The less intelligent fans will need a few years to come around, but they will.
Except those 7th and 8th seeds beat a ton of good teams to get to the Finals. Looking back still can't believe how Jokic essentially swept the Lakers. That was the deepest team Lebron ever had.
Jalen Smith's kidna trash Tate is prob better just cuz of his locker room presence. And I'm someone who wants to move Tate.
They have no more picks to attach to Aytons god awful contract. Why would the Pacers do that? Myles Turner is better than him.
Cuz for the first time in 20 years it finally looked like age caught up to Lebron. He literally missed a dunk and fumbled ball out of bounds.
He's a poor catch and shoot player. He doesn't pass. He shoots 34% from 3. He misses 30% of games every year - and he's not even 30. With this new cap, this move will be brutal for Phoenix. I also don't think Beal raises their ceiling at all. It really couldn't be a worse fit for Phoenix.
He's also dealign with a foot injury that should've kept him out of the season. But really the biggest let down is AD since he is supposed to be a generational talent on par with Jokic.
He averaged 59% TS, maybe he doesn't pass cuz it almost always goes in. At the end of the day, you still prefer Beal to ChokeP3 and Landry Shamet. Yeah it doesn't address their holes but its still an upgrade. they can find ring chasers and vet mins to fill in the holes in free agency.
