we don't know behind the scenes shenanigans. Ayton arguing with the coaches and teammates made viral videos on a few occasions. Once in particular Ayton & Bridges began chirping at the FT line after a missed assignment.
Moving Bridges for Durant isn't a bad move. The iffy moment was clearing the deck for an atrocious Bradley Beal contract.
Only time will tell if the Suns story has a happy ending. They already fired their Coach after 1 season. That's an "uh oh" start to the first chapter.
If Phoenix wanted to create a crazy drama, they're off to a good start. Remember when their "new" owner got into a jump ball skirmish in the front row with Jokic? Like... wtf was that ?!? "I bought this team, it's my money. I want to play the game."
(*.. get that owner a VIP box away from the court if he's going to jock out, and physically try to influence the game.)
PHX overall record wasn't bad, but it was clear as day the team lacked depth after overspending for a Big 3. With 2 of whom share the same SG position. The team doesn't have a true point guard. If they do bring in a point, the lineup will become small ball in a world where the NBA is getting bigger.
The most expensive team in NBA history better bring the ruckus... otherwise the Suns will become Troll snacks for every NBA fan that needs a good laugh.
