Phoenix #suns fan since the 1993 Finals run. One of the rare suns fans out in LA. Love all things purple & orange

@FlexFromJersey @drocktrainer I get it Flex but there is a real concern as to whether Book is still an elite player to justify the $140 m extension. His stats are going down each year since the 2023 run with KD. Fans are worried he will be a top 75 to 50 player getting paid $70m per year. It’s valid

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@drocktrainer This is why trading that 2033 unprotected pick for Bridges is a disaster. Honestly this the suns could have had Brown with 2033, Green and Brooks.

@TheHoopCentral This team will win 30 games. 2027 draft is week too. I feel bad for their coach and fans

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@brawadis Suns need to stop trading unprotected picks. Clippers did that for PG and it turned out terrible

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@theIVpointplay @drocktrainer The hope is one of the young guys chosen into a borderline All-Star/ star player at a certain specialty. Can Manman turn into Rudy Gobert? Can Flemming turn into Jaden McDaniels? Can Pete turn into Aaron Gordon? Even if one of those guys hits, you likely have enough.

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@swaveyxquis Great question!

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@FlexFromJersey @uncnephpodcast @brawadis Love and condolences brother.

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@SunderousDunks I agree. No doom and gloom needed. We played all time good team. Played them close 3 out 4 games. We had no shot blocker, no reliable bench players. Next season, I would expect that to be fixed and a more competitive playoffs for sure

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@drocktrainer @ZakMarcinNBA @Bigbird1182 Also, are the suns ok with trading Malu, Flemming, Oso, plus swaps and the 2033 FRP unprotected? That is what it will cost you to get a star. I dont want to live that again. Too risky, no future.

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@drocktrainer @ZakMarcinNBA @Bigbird1182 Ok, but he is not a valuable piece, so I dont see a team wanting him in a return for a star. He is worst then most gettable players, Naz Reid, Dejonte Murray, Kahwi. He is ours to keep most likely.

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@drocktrainer @ZakMarcinNBA @Bigbird1182 They will just let him walk after giving up 2 pics for him. I don’t think so. His value is that an all-time low. They could re-sign them to a really manageable contract. 8 to 10 m a year to be a starting or backup center.

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@drocktrainer @ZakMarcinNBA @Bigbird1182 Yes. Goodwin is your best option for that guard spot. He is what Marcus Smart is but cheaper and younger. Who is trading for Green and Grayson?

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@drocktrainer @ZakMarcinNBA @Bigbird1182 One idea I like is trading Brooks for Naz Reid. Him and Mark Williams/Malu/Oso would be a great front court. Spacing all day with Naz too. I just don’t know how much Minny values Brooks. Ant and him can work well.

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@RainyE89 Well. You want to them to trade both of them? You think they will get value for Green after he missed the whole season? Brooks fixed a lot of the issues on this team. You think they should just give me to another team? For 2nd round pics? Worse players?

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@chriscampasano There are playing the champs and they are an 8 seed. The played great. Take it easy

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@drocktrainer @ParadoxicalJoel @Cartierintern @breezy13218 @FlexFromJersey For Giannis, you should trade anyone on the roster, including Book.

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@drocktrainer @breezy13218 @FlexFromJersey I would give up both for Giannis. It’s a no brainer

[George Alaev @galaevONE]

@FlexFromJersey @drocktrainer @JC_bro23 I prefer Royce over Green. We need size and knockdown 3 PT shooting
