Really has nothing to do w/ the specific player, but OK.

https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/43510876/suns-acquiring-three-first-round-picks-jazz-sources-say

 

The Phoenix Suns are trading their 2031 first-rounder to the Utah Jazz for three first-round picks, sources told ESPN on Tuesday.

The trade gives the Suns the ability to triple their allotted first-round draft capital as the franchise pursues upgrades to the roster -- such as Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler. Butler, who requested a trade from the Heat earlier this month, has the Suns among his preferred trade destinations, sources said.

The Suns are acquiring the least favorable firsts in 2025 of Cleveland/Minnesota, 2027 of Cleveland/Minnesota/Utah and 2029 of Cleveland/Minnesota/Utah, sources said.

That was pretty tame. Naz is just a fucking loser head case.


 

I guess every NBA player is a loser head case because I've seen most of them get into it with fans at some point. 

I mean Jokic had an incident a few years back.

#1006

If they are getting into it over that level one type shit talk then yeah they are.

Dude said "you mad." He didnt curse. He didnt say i want to fuck your mom.

Next thing yall gonna not want people to yell "miss it"

I've never understood how miserable your life has to be going to find enjoyment out of paying large sums of money to go yell at other grown men to their face, knowing they can't really retaliate.

Are those 3 firsts really better trade bait than a Suns 2031?  They are all just about guaranteed to be in the last 5 picks of the 1st round.  I guess if it gets rid of Bradley Beals contract it's worth it, but I don't know why Miami would want them.

That was with Matt Ishbia, the Suns owner, who thought he bought a WWE franchise.

It’s going to be a 3-4 teamer. The picks will go to the team who takes Beal.

Barring something unforeseen, the pick swaps Utah holds on Cavs picks in ‘26 and ‘28 look pretty worthless right now. And the Minny picks play into this too. But there’s a chance Utah just took the 3 1sts from Donovan trade and turned them into one pick NINE YEARS after the trade

I haven’t done a deep dive on that trade, but unless I’m grossly mistaken, that’s a disingenuous take. Utah has a ton of young players and they can’t fit three first round picks per year on their roster. They don’t have the developmental throughput. The 2025 Cavs pick is going to be among the worst frp clearly.  Going forward though, it’s not just the Cavs pick, it’s the worst frp among the Cavs, Jazz or Twolves picks. If the Cavs have a bad year, Utah will still use their pick.

That’s a great trade for Utah. They can’t use them all and they take a flyer on the Suns being really bad a few years down the road. Which based on their current ownership seems like a pretty good bet. It’s a good thing their owner is in the mortgage business because he’s mortgaged the hell out of their future.

You’re going to see more and more of these types of trades from the teams like SA, OKC, Utah and Brooklyn that have stockpiled so many future picks. They have to keep pushing them down the road.

This. I mean, Jokic's numbers are going to look impressive when put next to literally anyone who's ever lived, but why choose MJ's weakest MVP season, when he had clearly lost a step and was primarily a mid-range jump shooter?

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II has sustained a small fracture in his foot and is expected to miss 2-to-3 months, sources tell ESPN. Critical loss for the Mavs.

Pels-Bucks postponed due to weather issues 

Also seems TBD if the Bucks can get home for the second half of their back to back tomorrow night

Sexton has been OK, but hasn't really lived up to that contract. 

Agbaji is still TBD (was a 1st round pick)

Lauri has been good for them, but ultimately came down to earth this season and lost a lot of trade value. He got that huge extension, which may become a negative in the future. He's a good player, a fringe all-star, but I think he's just a good player on a bad team and won't have nearly the same impact on a team with more options. 

The 3 firsts don't look to be the potential lottery tickets they did when Mitchell has the chance to leave. He signed an extension, and the other 3 guys are under contract for years. Barring a couple of major injuries, none of those picks will be in the lottery, and the swaps will be very late firsts, which won't convey. Seems like the Cavs gamble paid off with about 4/5 years of peak Mitchell at least. 

I don't know if that's great value for Utah overall. I think the Knicks were offering about the same in picks, but not players. Maybe their FRPs would have been more valuable, but it's hard to say given they are 3rd in the East.  The Knicks would probably be a whole lot better with Mitchell instead of Bridges though. Not sure if they make the KAT trade too in that scenario.

Full look at that Malik Monk steals and double clutch reverse slam that went in and back out 💀

Mavs are going to get the 8 seed and get healthy just in time for the playoffs and beat the Thunder, aren’t they? Worst matchup in the league for the Thunder. Those games would be must watch.

Likely and yes, that's a terrible matchup for them.  However, I don't think either team has been fully healthy when they've played this year.

Phoenix is a nice play to retire to. So I hear.

Getting traded straight up for Bradley Beal would be about the best case scenario for Jimmy. But there's no upside for Miami to do that.

Handful of draft picks might be the best Miami can do even if it is beal coming back.

Another third quarter triple double for Joker

And a 3/4 court heave to finish the 3rd.

66 footer. One handed lol 

#1048

Nikola friggin' Jokic, man. A 66-footer to give him a 22-21-15 triple double at the end of the third quarter. Sure. Why not.

#1049

Kings started 4Q 14-0 so Jokic has to come back out. Finished 35-22-17. 
 

ScoreApp is telling me it’s the first 30-20-15 game since Wilt in 1968.

Who the fuck is Doug McDermott and how did he go 5/6 from 3 in the 4th?
