Why the 2024 Phoenix Suns Failure was Inevitable
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 чер 2024
- After signing Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal, the 2024 Phoenix Suns seemed like Championship Favorites, but in the First Round against the Minnesota Timberwolves, they would get SWEPT.
You would think that a team with THREE of the TOP PLAYERS in the NBA would put up a fight, but when you’re BIG THREE are the EXACT SAME archetype (i.e., scorers) and make so much money that signing any significant role players becomes impossible, it’s no surprise the Suns failed as badly as they did.

Who Should the Phoenix Suns Trade For?
Who to trade for? With what? That's the question.
Pppj@@user-jb6vt8zw4t
What went wrong…. 3 guys making enough money for a roster of fifteen …. No depth. And no one plays defense
What I find so weird about the NBA is it's both salary capped and salary minimum. And the range is so small. So it incentives teams with one star to give them this stupid contract which makes these larger market teams who want to acquire multiple stars pay absurd rates for players going into double luxury tax. It just seems like a failure of the system.
And NO FUCKING POINT GUARD
Failing to compete is one thing. But management destroyed their future for the next several years.
They would've been fine without Beal. That's two guys now, that dominated on a garbage Washington team for years, showing they can't do shit anywhere else. John Wall first, now Beal.
Beal is still a good player. He’s just a lot more inconsistent now because of his injuries.
Gilbert Arenas did it first
@@HoopahZhes not a good player hes average as a starter in his position with a horrible contract.
They both fell off due to injuries this is an absurd statement
shouldve sign a rajon rondo type of PG that can playmake well. well they are doomed now, need to rebuild around beal now xD. KD and booker will be gone next year or the nest 2 years
The new owner came in and destroyed the team cap with 3 players as if he was an experienced GM his first year on the job 😂
He was prolly thinking he's a genius for that move too 😂
The media hyping them up to win the chip was the most annoying thing. You knew that wasn't going happen in first year together.
One of my solutions for Suns is to tell Beal that he will be Super 6th man next year or he can waive his no trade clause
Glad you mentioned camara cause I saw him at summer league and was like man this guy could give us a little impact right now we need this, and we got him kinda as a steal. Then of course they trade him and bring back dudes that are worse versions lol
From a Wizards fan, thank you Phoenix Suns for taking Beal and his ridiculous contract away from us.
Serious Beal is too small. He’s basically Jason Terry.
😂
Wizard fans exist😭
Don't worry. You guys are about to give a ridiculous contract to Kuz 😂
“Us” ? Do you play for or own the Wizards? When have they ever been relevant ? Pathetic lmao!
This videos awesome, editing is great. Looks like you’ve been doing YT for years and you only got 27 subs? How’d you learn this all so quick lol
thanks! i had a channel in the past, but it never went anywhere.
We didn’t need a video to know that 3 players with pretty much the same skill set weren’t going to work😂 completely redundant. You built an offense heavy team and hired Frank Vogel who’s a defensive minded coach. You traded your depth for KD AND traded the rest for Beal. Signed Jusuf Nurkic who hasn’t been a good rim protector since 2019. Remember when people really thought this was really gonna work?😂
The only time a No-Trade clause benefited a team was when Kobe used it in 2007 and the Lakers ended up trading for Gasol.
Did this man just say a top 15 NBA player ever, and KD in the same sentence?
Great video, you definitely deserve more subs than you have. Keep up the great work.
Hope your channel takes off. Well done sir
Very good video bro definitely sub 💯
This channel is about to blow up. Keep up the quality bro
Thank You!
Bradley beal worked harder than anyone to get that supermax from the wizards but everyone knew those were empty stats, everyone except for the suns front office
KD And Book are the only tradable assets , with some role players but Beal no.
Warriors didn't "BUILD" a big three.....they drafted all three of the players you used as an example!! & when they did get K.D., 3/5's of there starting line up was home grown!!
So keep them out of the "built a big 3" conversation please!!
I think you’re being over sensitive lol. Drafting players is still building a team. They were literally “rebuilding,” and chose amazing players that skill sets meshed perfectly with one another.
There’s a difference between building a team and buying a team and I feel like I distinguish that by comparing the Suns (bought) and Warriors (built).
@@HoopahZnah gotta agree with the man there. When you say" form a big 3" its heavily implied that all 3 don't already play of the team, not homegrown draft picks.
In fact no one ever uses it that way
The editing of this video 🔥
The editing in this video was amazing and overall this was a great video. I couldn't believe you only had 68 subs before I clicked on. Keep up the grind 🫡
Appreciate it!
High quality content 🔥
If it was inevitable, where is the video of you making that call back when the trade was made? Hindsight is 20/20 though, and everyone looks like a genius when they use it.
Well done!
As a Suns fan I'm disappointed with Suns fans that like what Ishbia and Jones have done. Ishbia is no different than Jerry Jones and James Jomes doesn't know how to draft talent peeio😢. Does the Durant trade look so good now with having no talent left?...smh
Very good video!!
3 supermax iso scorers with no defensive identity, depth or playmaker i could only wonder how that didn’t work
Suns did great this year. They just need a little more time for chemistry. They ran up against the Mavs, who are also a great time. How many games did the series go? It was a hard fought series.
Idc who's creating these videos anymore, I'm watching all the Suns slander lmao
it's crazy that this level of production only has 283 subscribers......Probably "why the 2024 UA-cam Failure was Inevitable"!!!
Nurkic is not 7 foot he is 6'9" or 6'10" at most and has a below average vertical leap that is the Suns major problem.
What does that have to do with anything? Nurkic was one of the top rebounders this year. It’s his finishing that needs major improvement
I’m actually going crazy about how GM’s think that you should bring in 2 superstars with injury proneness.
Like this isn’t even the first year, or only decade where this has been a problem.
If you bring in 1 injury prone player, but he rest of the team are healthy, that’s completely fine, but their big 3 is like 2.5/3 injury prone. Devin Booker is right there, he’s almost injury prone with how often he was out too.
Nba players can play 82 games before the post season, do you think it’s a smart idea to bring in a player who can accidentally break his ankle during warm ups? Unless he is LeBron or MJ, do not bring someone that fragile. It’s crazy how GMs actually still do this, and I’m willing to bet this won’t be the last time that a gm will create another clippers or suns team.
I’m almost certain this is happening because Kawhi managed to come back after being on and off for like 2 years to win a chip with Toronto and then went back to not being able to play, and these teams think that could be them (which it won’t)
NURKIC MISSES TOO MANY EASY LAYUPS....
Phx should of kept the squad they went to the finals with and kept building off that…
If the wolves win the title, it won't look so bad though, right?
Suprisingly nice video and opinion, keep it up
Booker and Durant would have been a good team imo. I still don’t think they would’ve won a chip, but trading for Beal too just made it much worse. I’m not saying Beal sucks, he’s just very injury prone….just like your other 2 stars!!! Terrible team building
I gotta feel bad for fans of Arizona sports. They’re hockey team is leaving cuz of crap ownership, they’re basketball team is screwed for the next however many years, the Diamondbacks went from one round away from the finals to second to last in they’re division, and the cardinals are the cardinals. Just such a terrible time for them
Shit weather, shit state, shit teams
Any trade where you are giving up first round picks after the player retires is insanity. When the dude you're trading for has a history of unhappiness and team jumping, it increases the insanity exponentially.
I think the simple fact is KD may be the most overrated player in the nba. He can score like crazy, but when it comes down to demonstrating heart and putting a team on your back, he fails miserably. The only time where his success lived up to his reputation was at Golden State where he was insulated by the rest of the team.
Draymond was right. The warriors won before KD and they won after KD. They didn't need him, he needed them.
Adding beal at high cost is a complete idiot move.
Beal is the true definition of an empty stats player, not Booker or Trae. He is only useful when the offense runs through him to average 30ppg on a 8th-11th seed, the moment you put him as a second or third option on a team with expectations he becomes a glorified role player.
At least Trae and D Book proved that they can lead a team to a deep run to the playoffs when they have the correct players around them.
Beal trade was so nonsensical. They just wanted to get rid of CP no matter what
3 starting shooting guards and no point guard what could go wrong?
They needed to keep CP3 to lead the floor
When we traded for bradley i was heated, it was tight ishbia was down to make moves. But he blew up to much at one time. Should have kept monty. Beal being a glass house and having a no trade clause.
Big 3's always seem to fail...you need a batman and Robin with a bunch of dawgs as roleplayers dynamic
People dont understand the Beal move. Phx had CP3, an old, overpayed player that didnt even play in the playoffs due to injury. If CP3 left, PHX would still have 0 cap space to work on rounding out the roster. They literally UPGRADED from CP3 to Beal by re-trading some draft swaps that had ALREADY been swaped. They got Beal for nothing.
I agree. Many of these commentators don’t know what they are talking about. They were literally about to release CP3 for nothing, I love CP3 but Beal is an upgrade over him at this point
Hire D’Antoni? Isn’t he just Doc Rivers with better regular season records?
they were saying how disastrous the gobert trade was after last years flame out..........same team this year, now they are in the finals
Simple reason why the suns had their downfall: Beal's glass skeleton
Basketball should switch to the MLB model for contracts
It’s mostly cuz KD is on the team if I was a GM I’d pay money to NOT have him on my team
The problem was the Bradley Beal trade
Draymond was not a part of the big three in Golden State 😂
Should’ve kept CP3
Beal makes more then Booker...OOPS
Book and KD wanted to play together after the Olympics why KD did what he did.
Book needs blame for the explosion.
Funny that even with ALL the hate on DA for his play he was never swept! LOL
Book/KD or 0-5 in the playoffs!
First year of all these super teams don’t workout so we’ll see what happens next year.
Point guard is a excuse because Boston doesn’t have a one. The team lacked leadership on the floor
This is not MyLeague . We are giving up our future to get Bradley Beal , and it didn't pay off , of course we'll know Matt ishiba would be fired.
matt ishbia's the owner, so i don't think he's going anywhere.
It took a year for the Celtics superteam to win a championship so just wait for the suns to
All that because KD decided to play the oija and went to the warriors.
Do you have an email I could reach out to?
my email should be in my bio.
they need 2 trade Beal 4 a defensive player nothing against Beal just not a good fit
Do we still have one of those defesive-focused, pass-first point guard?
The suns gm needs to be fired, they don't have a single first round pick until 2031, completely destroyed their depth and future to build a "super team" that would never work.
So many bad moves
I called it during the off-season, the Suns had the perfect team after the Beal trade and they ruined their team for no reason by trading DeAndre Ayton for a bunch of garbage. I don’t care what the narratives made by 14 year olds online are about Deandre Ayton being “soft”. He’s a better player than Jusuf Nurkic, and anybody who would debate that is under the influence of drugs/alcohol. Suns got rid of a talented big man with first round talent, that already had chemistry with their team.
Too old too late
The three BUMS 😂🤣🤪
Bradley Beal sucks. He deserved to stay in Washington 🤷♀️
Good Player on a Bad team and not always available.
Should've kept cp3 bro I told yall
