literally said a few days ago T-Wolves should beat the Suns as constructed. Literally Elfrid Payton would better than whatever PG rotation they have rn, which is none (IT is just there as a token signing lol)
Yep nuggets ain't winning this game this why they not true champions they never play well in the first half and michael malone always call the first timeout in all four games lmao weak and now it biting them in the ass this time timberwolves goin show them how to swept somebody in the first round 🐺 🐺 🐺 🐺

DBooger’s time on the suns is over. They have no picks outside of this year’s first rounder until 2030 when he will be 35. Beal has a no trade clause and no one wants his albatross of a contract. They have no choice but it to blow it up. The question is do you think he will get his jersey retired? 1 finals appearance, 2 second round exits, and a first round exit is a solid resume. Westphal has a similar resume (1 finals, 1 conference finals, 1 second round exit, 1 first round exit) and his jersey is retired he was also on the team for a shorter period

Westphal also coached the Suns when they made the 1993 Finals so he also has that on his resume
We'd honestly try to take Booker if possible tbh (maybe trading away Randle). We're up 3-1 rn but it's been Brunson carrying hard with Hart playing out of his damn mind, OG doing everything defensively and Robinson/McBride coming up huge off the bench (Bogdanovic also before the injury). DiVincenzo was huge in Game 2 but hasn't been super consistent
we'd like to have a reliable 2nd scoring option alongside Brunson if possible and Booker would keep us as contenders for the next 5-6 seasons easily
Steve Nash had 3 conference finals exits(lost in 6 twice, and lost in 5 once), 1 second round exit (lost in 6), and 1 first round (lost in 5). Losing in the finals once is better than losing in the conference finals three times imo
