It’s laughable how media and Suns fans were brainwashed into believing our team improved by trading DA. Defense is terrible and Nurk as a facilitator is Idiocracy. Loses the ball constantly, has the IQ to make a proper read but lacks passing ability to do it. You can’t be a very effective facilitator when you lack the ability to be an effective scoring threat. We still have a chance with a healthy Booker but to claim Nurk was a better fit is stupid and lazy analysis when he literally does everything worse except passing.

I admitted it the day it happened. Nurkic is a sack of shit.
Holy shit. No one…, NO ONE is arguing Nurk is better than Ayton. I love how you’re leaving out the other piece that’s averaging 12/5/3
DA the concept is better than DA the player
BS
we assembled a team of the greatest 3 point shooters in the NBA but now none of them can hit a 3
Nurk/DA is irrelevant to that fact
Yeah Nurk is probably not better than DA, HOWEVER, we traded a locker room cancer AND an unknown player for four players. That means we added depth to the point where we were over flowing with depth which was a major problem going into the offseason where we only had like 5 players on contracts and very little money to work with.
Also Grayson Allen
Nurkic has been a net negative so far. Teams aren’t even trying to respect our centers. It’s crazy how many times the best option is to have them finish and they consistently can not. We got cut off last year to go to Ayton all the time. It’s literally the same shit except defenses took away the open 3 from the bad shooter and shifted it to our center taking a contested layup
So the current issue is not having enough guys who can step up and create their own shot or handle the ball against pressure in crunchtime, and you think the solution is the posterchild for overhyped players who can’t create his own shot or handle the ball against pressure?
