    They were banking on Beal to be what he was in Washington but he couldn’t…and Chuck has always reiterated this point. It’s easy to put up numbers on high volume and get quality looks via play calling when you’re the only decent player on a bad team. But when you’re asked to mesh with other superstars the variance becomes glaring.

      No, he was the same person he was in Washington he just isn’t that good. He was balling on a bad team for a decade of course everyone thinks he’s good. IMO book and kd learned he’s not that guy and that’s the problem.

    I remember at the beginning of the season how people were talking about the Suns were the winner in the 3 way deal to get Bradley Beal. Yeah, they got the farthest, but they would have gotten the farthest even if these 3 players did not play at all.
    Beal's contract might be one of the worst in the NBA right now; not only is he ridiculously overpaid but he can also refuse any trades involving him. I don't know what Wizards were thinking when they gave him that clause, and I don't know what the Suns were thinking when they inherited that.

    Not sure if Budenholzer will work, but Vogel did not know what to do with this team. He could not decide on a rotation all year and that affected the team a ton. I watched almost every game. He had this problem all year and it almost got worse as the year went on, because it was clear some guys needed more minutes than others. As a role player, not knowing where you stand also screws up confidence and how you approach your minutes. The offense seemed to also be a mess and guys didn’t seem to know what the game plan was, or if there even was one, even during the playoffs.

    It’s a case of siding with a player over the coach. Perhaps Durant is not as good as it used to be. It seems weird to fire a coach after one season with a winning record.
    If it turns out that Durant is the same next season, and the coach is fired again then you know it’s not the coach
