Beal, booker,yuta,Durant and nurkic. Only thing suspect about this lineup is pick and roll defense because an elite shooter flying of screens might be a problem.
“Gets moody when he doesn’t get the ball” isn’t that why people wanted to trade DA?
I am a little worried now.
Big fan of Nas Little, wanted him in the draft the year we took Cam and excited to see him here. Nurkic is tough, and Grayson Allen is a great role player.
😢suns f**ked up big time, nurkic is basically saric, with the same attitude problem as ayton, lazy in keeping himself in shape( at least despite the video gaming ayton has always been the guy who works hard to keep himself in top shape) can’t jump can’t finish around the basket, can’t dunk can’t catch a lob, a bad ft shooter slow and can’t stay healthy, can’t defend the pnr and perimeter… anything else, he’s complete garbage, i tried to find something positive about this deal but simply couldn’t
This made me feel even worse lol
They should ask bobby potis or miles turner they fck up suns roster
Is that guy real or AI 😮😂
This nerd thinks he knows it all about DA here in Phoenix lmao ok buddy your in for a disappointment
Am i the only person that thinks Nurkic will be best for the suns than Ayton has. Nurkic is a player that will give you 100% of his capabilities when the stakes are high. Unlike Ayton that you can give more but never bothers to do so over and over again.
Phoenix Fkd up😢
Suns are going to be garbage in playoffs. Stupid trades and bad coaches.
This guy seems like he was trying his hardest to convince suns fans to hate Nurkic and this trade. I’ll take Nurkic any day over the DA we just got in the playoffs and last year against the mavs.
I must be missing something. Our talent level has arguably gone down and our salary cap has gone up
You guys look sad! Rightfully so. 3 injury prone players in Nurk, Beal, and KD
This video made me hate the trade even more fml
Blazer fans are so happy to get rid of Nurkic. He is the king of soft flailing lay up attempts, and recently he's become a 280lb center who hucks up 3's… He moves well laterally but since he can't jump he still isn't much of a rim protector. He does generally play really well against Jokic, so that alone might be valuable for Phoenix in a playoff matchup. Hopefully Ayton enjoys playing with Scoot and can find renewed passion in the game.
We finally get our franchise center and we trade him to Portland! Ugh!
Should of been able to get more for Ayton
Get ready for Eubanks, Udoka, and Bol guarding Jokic in the playoffs. If Jurkic goes down we are in trouble.
The look on Espo’s face: priceless. 😂
So Nurkic is pretty much Frank
Nurk is an upgrade for PHX. This dude talking is full of it.
He's not out of shape. This dude is making shit up.
🤣😂😄
Ayton thinks he’s more valuable. Maybe in this situation it’s like overpaying your running back.
