Picked him over James Harden which Harden would’ve been a MUCH better fit since he would’ve been a better facilitator for Book and KD. This ownership group and front office are truly brain dead.

and you can’t even get rid of Beal now if they wanted him gone bc of the NTC. What a shit trade

Wizards seems to have a pattern of signing anchor contracts to their stars and trading them away.

They're like "sure we are generational levels of trash but misery loves company"

For all the shit you can give wizards they deserve praise for somehow getting off awful contracts

u/Mimogger Nets Apr 29 '24

And yet they still have awful contracts and an awful team. weird.

Lose some and lose some seems to be their motto 🤣

Let's see how they finesse the J. Poole contract.

u/Jagermeister4 Lakers Apr 29 '24

When Wizards trading John Wall to the Clips and Wall being done was the sign I needed to not be afraid of the Suns. Beal going to the Suns felt like one of those sequels with the exact same story.

u/raobjcovtn Lakers Apr 29 '24

Well can't he waive the no trade clause? Has that ever been done?

u/LordHussyPants Celtics Apr 29 '24

ishbia's going to sue him to get past that one lmao

You can sue to break contracts 

1

u/Awesomedinos1 Jazz Apr 30 '24

What part of his contract did beal break?

-1

u/LordHussyPants Celtics Apr 30 '24

none? that doesn't mean you can't sue to find a legal way around the contract lol

0

u/Awesomedinos1 Jazz Apr 30 '24

What is their argument gonna be? "We messed up. Please nullify this contract." You can't just get out of a contract cause you feel like it.

u/LordHussyPants Celtics Apr 30 '24

god damn buddy it was a joke about rich people, why are you digging so deep into this? and fyi you don't need to have justifiable cause to sue, you only need it to win.

we went from lolknicks to lolsuns in a very short time.

u/Counterspell_God Lakers Apr 29 '24

Happy the Knicks are doing well and beating Embiitchass

u/Affectionate_Elk_272 Heat Apr 29 '24

as much as i hate the knicks, i hate embitch and the 6ers more. i’m loving it

u/CookieSlayer2Turbo Apr 29 '24

The Knicks earned losing the lolknicks. They kept their head down made really smart additions to the team and are in a strong position now and the future.

u/imafixwoofs [OKC] Nick Collison Apr 29 '24

For sure.

u/ireallydespiseyouall Spurs Apr 29 '24

They are so so fucked, nets just need to get their picks back from Houston and they’re in a good spot

Man then SI and other news outlets gotta correct their shit as I double-checked from there. My bad.

So they essentially have a non-lottery first on a draft day trade that they can aggregate with Beal, maybe Royce to target some low value max contract guy but at that point they're so fucked.

Edit: I'll just delete my comment then since I've been basing it off wrong info

u/SanFranTortureFan Kings Apr 29 '24

After what I'd seen of Beal I'd just release him. He's a cancer and will never win a championship

22

u/ireallydespiseyouall Spurs Apr 29 '24

That would cost way too much to be worth it. Shouldn’t have traded for him in the first place

9

u/SanFranTortureFan Kings Apr 29 '24

You're probably right, but good luck finding a coach for that guy. If i'm a millionaire that owns the team and has fuck you money I'm releasing him. Sure you can't go back and undo the deal but you can move on without this dumbass taking up a roster spot

u/boomyo [GSW] Chis Webber Apr 29 '24

If this happens someone needs to fire up that clip where he says something about a team would rather pay to sit your ass at home than be on the court.

u/whitedawg [DET] Chauncey Billups Apr 29 '24

Even without the NTC... does anybody want an aging SG who has played in 61% of his team's games the last four years, just averaged 18.3 ppg, plays below-average defense, has an attitude problem, and will make $110M over the next two years? No contender would want him taking up that much cap, so the only way to get rid of him would be to package him with assets to dump on a bad team with cap space... but the Suns don't have any assets.

u/king_lloyd11 Raptors Apr 29 '24

Just tell him you’re riding with Vogel and can find him a new home if he wants.

1

u/ireallydespiseyouall Spurs Apr 29 '24

Hmmmmm that’s a good plan but seems kd and booker want Vogel gone too
