there is literally nothing wrong with this post. Go hang up your Beal posters on your wall.

Re: Bradley Beal thread
Loved his contributions from the bench tonight. His facial reactions when the refs screwed us were phenomenal.
... and he looked sharp in his new street clothes.

First person I’ve ever put on ignore from this board. Now back to sniffing my game used Beal spandex if you’ll excuse me.
I hate this team.

Same. He is just a boring c*nt to be honest, so why bother if he is not even entertaining... At least the clowns in the Ayton camp gave up by now - I guess we have hope

As a Suns fan, how can you not be infuriated by this?
Hammy seems to fine to me...

BBB netted $85K for each point he scored this season is what I read on another Suns board. Nice job. I'd dance too.

It is getting very old, and while I know it is frustrating for everyone, especially due to all the reports for trolling, please try not to use personal attacks, especially with that kind of language as it is against the rules, even though I agree with the gist as I know many others due as well.
But Stix, while it's ok to state your opinion, the is so repetitive and often, it's not making any meaningful discussion and at this point, it's basic trolling, so I hope you can move on and try and provide more meaningful contribution to threads. I know you've been a long time member and I don't remember you ever posting like this before.

Re: Bradley Beal thread
While I can agree that some of my tone and posts have been a bit trollish. That is not always the case, and I do give meaningful input at times. This guy is just so easy to make fun of. Sorry. Also just trying to bring some humor to the situation because the team kinda sucks right now without him. I won't post anymore, sorry to the (enter your imaginative adjective here) people who can't take a few jokes. Peace.

Apparently he worsened the hammy while dancing on the bench. Status from questionable to doubtful to out for the Lakers game. I don't know how anybody would not be frustrated with his injuries at this point. The fears about dragging this team down with his injuries and anchor contract have materialized pretty fast. No wonder Wizards fans on GB are really happy about getting rid of him.

Re: Bradley Beal thread
Sti x I understand your jokes about Beal and I don’t really understand people who blame you about trolling. Sometime your jokes about Beal make me laugh so I’m with you.
Beal has 46 M in salary and more unplayed than played so he is the huge problem. He is 6th in players salary so this is a joke.
We have 193 M in team pay roll and if Beal will be not available in PO and we got 1rd exit that would be embarrassing

Re: Bradley Beal thread
Frustration should be directed at the people responsible for acquiring him. He is what he is and everybody knew about his injury situation and contract.

The problem is we had no options. Had we kept Paul and Shamet I think that is a worse situation, and it's not like Paul is healthy this season and is basically done anyway. He's missed 23 games and Shamet 16. We could have maybe had Jordan Poole but we'd be worse when he plays because he takes 16 shots a game and has under a 51% TS%, and shoots 30% from 3 with no defense.
Someone like Ben Simmons may have been a possibility, and would have been a better fit but he's missed 42 games and I'm sure would frustrate people more...and can't shoot.

My issue is with the last two years of his contract where he will be making 53 and 57 mil per year which is a massive hit on our salary cap and if he's going to be injury riddled that would just be terrible value.
On the last year of his contract as an expiring it would be tough to deal him on a 57 mil contract and he has the no trade clause as well making it even harder to potentially ship him out. The only out I can see is the stretch and waive provision if Beal is just an absolute shell of his former self.

Kudos to you BW, and your patience. It's like trying to teach brain dead chickens the alphabet, and you are still out there doing gods work for the millionth time.

Re: Bradley Beal thread
It was a good trade in theory and still frustrating Suns replaced a 38yo player with a 30yo player on a huge contract with the later as injury prone as the former if not even more. Both can be true. Beal has now two injuries after almost no contact and he couldn't even start the season for 20 games. Based on his injury history believing he'll be healthy during gruelling four playoff series is like kids believing in Santa Clause.
