The Phoenix Suns have A LOT to figure out this summer. After missing the play-in with Kevin Durant, Devin Booker and Bradley Beal, along with the highest payroll in NBA history, they not only have to replace recently fired coach Mike Budenholzer, they are also largely expected to make a change in the front office, after the failures of James Jones and Josh Bartelstein. With the KD trade looming, Bradley Beal’s contract and no-trade clause intact, and a fanbase turned off by the lack of success following championship aspirations, and promises, is this the most important moment in franchise history?
Stephen, Gerald and Erik break it down while also discussing the Chris Haynes report on Bol Bol losing his rotation spot because he shot around while Mason Plumlee and Steven Adams started a brawl in a game against the Houston Rockets earlier in the season, Marc Stein’s latest reporting on Phoenix’s search for a replacement at coach and relive the greatest moments in playoff history for a franchise who should be making more of those memories as they speak.
Is this really the most important moment ever? Could a new coach actually convince Kevin Durant to stay in purple and orange, despite the fractured relationship over a blindside trade offer to the Golden State Warriors at the deadline that would have landed Jimmy Butler alongside Devin Booker?
