This is the same man who said that the Suns getting Beal was gonna get them a Championship now it’s Butler? 😂😂
Based on how Beal played before his injury is the truth. But he hasn’t played like he did before
@@itsmerellgaming8285i mean not hard to be the guy on a crap team and players tend to play hard when they want to make that long big contract. once they get that contract... well u see a lot of ben simmons out there.
No one with half a brain thought Beal would fit on the Suns
@@itsmerellgaming8285
@@itsmerellgaming8285you mean played before wizards signed him to that disgusting contract
Nobody expected Beal to be a 16ppg scorer after averaging 30 could atleast give us 20-25 but it’s cool cuz jimmy will..
KD has enough help ! Get that boy curry a running mate
Curry washed
@@deesee2051Stupid asl yup don’t know your basketball 🤣🤣
@@deesee2051tweaking lmao having to carry 24/7 will wear you out literally doing everything
They both had help already when they teamed up. Now JB going to the suns. They still won’t win anything.
Draymond and him might start WW3 though😂
How is Chiney so smarter than these dudes 😂😂! Always has a different perspective that actually makes sense
KD needs 20 superstars just to make it to the conference finals🤣🤣
never even made it there since golden state
No one could win with the roster KD has around him right now (not a Suns fan, btw).
@@LunaticTheCat wait what he has 2 all stars lol. Put Giannis in the suns and they are walking to the conference finals!
and regardless of all comment. KD has rings . MVP and consistent scoring title. still making money every second that you tube comments combine
@@LunaticTheCatoh yes they can
Would love to see Draymond try to punch Jimmy 😂😂
DRAYMOND WILL GET PUNCHED BACK
Can they punch themselves at the same time
😂😂😂
Suns are still sorely lacking defense ever since Mikael left. Adding Jimmy would help fill that void.
Over 50mill for defense? Cos there's only 1 ball
Adds defense, but takes away perimeter shooting.
U tripping
Jimmy is old
He can’t stay infront of no starter right now in the league
KD hasn’t accomplished anything since GS
Original
@@theronhugginskD rich who cares stay mad 😂
@ and u broke who care stay mad
FACTS
@@TashaOneal-z3pmoney ain't everything buddy
If GS has to give up Wiggins and Kuminga to get Butler, it really doesn't make sense and guarantee it wont make them any better.
green with podz/hield for jimmy
@brystander9158 I don't that happening , 3 rotation players for 1 player , who else is going to be in the rotation
@@GeotuneOfficial poor reading comprehension.
SAS do not be watching the suns mans said they have size in nurkic, but dude doesn’t even get minutes anymore lol
Mans wasn’t lying tho. They got him
Book needs a ring . I hope JB go from the heat to the sun…🔥
Still hot
Book tripped on his ring years ago
Chiney looking good today!
She look good eryday stop
@godsandmonstars One statement doesn't make another untrue, you clown 🤡
Everyday
Plot Twist this Trade : Jimmy Butler to Suns and Kevin Durant back to Warriors
At this point Jimmy Butler's photo day only thing worth mentioning
I totally disagree with Stephen A Smith the Warriors need another star to add to Steph Curry
Nahhhhh
Curry has proved again and again he can win as your best player kd has not @TheCloZer11
KD HAS ENOUGH HELP STOP IT. GET STEPH SOMEBODY !!
Kd doesn’t have an all star on his team this year and Beal hasn’t been one since when?
2:10 Stephen A has been covering basketball for years, but you can tell he’s a casual. This dude said the Suns got size in Nurkic and Plumlee. Ever since the Suns traded for Nick Richards, Nurkic doesn’t even see the floor. 😂
LOL
He knows nothing about basketball
EXACTLY 😂😂
Oh girl is a GREAT analyst she brings it every time
Pause
Butler to Phoenix. Booker to Toronto. Barrett and Brown to Miami. Picks sprinkled around.
"I approve that message!" 😂
He's going to the Bucks, and the media will be in complete shambles.
Doubt that
Jimmy Butler perfect fit in Memphis, Nuggets, Phoenix or Warriors 🤔🧐🤨
KD is going to the warriors. 😂😂
Jimmy G Buckets! That’s my guy. I would love to see him on either team. Playoff Jimmy on either squad is pretty interesting.
sounds presidential? dude sound like Scooby doo
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Would like to see Jimmy anywhere in Cali, make the 4 teams rivalry more competitive.
The Suns won't play Bol Bol but needs Help 😂
@2:20 *"what he (Butler) can infuse inside that locker room"* - Stephen A.
🤔 Um, that's what people are worried about, bro.
Jimmy will bring that toughness and mentality that will go into effect immediately. You're adding and instant uber clutch 28+ppg 7reb 7ast 4stl 1+ blk jimmy butler come playoff time. Jimmy is an adaptable alpha. He can adjust to anyone and does not dominate the ball but is very efficient with a usage rate that shows he blends very well with other stars. The ultimate swiss army knife. Whatever contending team jimmy butler goes to, that team wins a chip or comes close to it. guaranteed.
I still think the Thunder, Celtics and probably the Knicks would still be ahead of the suns if Jimmy goes there. But when it comes to Golden State, they are far off even with Jimmy Butler.
@DevSingh-zc6hu don't forget the team the celtics have now is very close to the same celtics team that jimmy's been giving grief to the past 5 years without allstars.
Suns have beal, kd, and booker thats 3 all stars, curry is the only one on his team, jk is maybe an all star when he plays
What about wiggins?
Wiggins is mid
Beal is washed that's why he ain't starting jimmy gonna be what draymond is for the warriors
Beal's not an all star anymore.
Neither book or Beal is an all star this year and Beal hasn’t been an all star since? Kd has been the all star consistently the consistent player. Book and Beal has to step up kd literally brings double teams which should open it up for those two. They have to step up simple
"Still yet"...thats my Nigerian right there.
The movement isn’t on Durant or curry it’s on coaching .
the media narratives around kevin durant kill me. curry has missed the playoffs numerous times, but kevin durant going home in april is what stephen a talks about
Get this maaan to Phoenix already
No . Unless phoenix owner agrees to unload KD or Booger . No team want Beal
Beal has the worst contract in the league
And if the trade deadline passes, and Butler Is Not Traded??? And The heat Say's We Are Not Trading Butler!!! What's Butler's Next Move!!!???
You know SAS doesnt watch the games. The Warriors looks more like a team. They would benefit more form a Jimmy Butler trade. Phoenix is just two players.
I honestly think Jimmy will fit great with the warriors
you tell Stephen A doesn't watch nba because nurkic is getting dnp'd and nick Richards is the starter now
I want KD and Curry reunited 😊
Beal to the Warriors Butler to the Suns...problem solve for both KD and Curry!!!
@leoregulus5842 i honestly don't think any1 wants beal. His contract is stupid & he's always injured. These teams would be stupid to give up a talented player for beal
Warriors don’t need beal
@@EOrainbowlove1 But when healthy, Beal is 25+ scorer that could help anyone and an underrated playmaker!!!
@@JellysBack I don't know...I think Beal and Curry could be the best backcourt in the NBA!!!
@leoregulus5842 when was the last time he was fully healthy? It's been awhile 🤣
Told you, Jimmy don’t need the HEAT!🔥😭The west thirsty for Jimmy Buckets!
I think OKC with all their 1st round picks, have enough chips and will benefit most with Jimmy Butler. OKC talent + Jimmy toughness = championship.
This guy mentioned nurkic and Plumlee like the suns ain’t just trade for Richard’s and trying to get rid of nurkic . This who we giving 10s of millions too
Warriors makes more sense tbh
Both Suns and Warriors can't do anything to win a chip any time soon.
Jimmy will bring that toughness and mentality that will go into effect immediately. You're adding and instant uber clutch 28+ppg 7reb 7ast 4stl 1 blk jimmy butler come playoff time. Whatever contending team jimmy butler goes to, that team wins a chip or comes close to it. guaranteed.
@@TR1_93the sixers or wolves never came close to a championship only the heat
@@TR1_93 well both of them are not close to being contenders
@NYK347 sixer lost to the eventual champion Toronto raptors in game 7 off kawhi"s miraculous last sec shot. Since butler left they've been a joke.
SAS you're wrong and heres why; the Nets need Butler more than those two teams😂😂😂😂
Suns get Butler
Lakers get Nurkic and draft picks
Heat get Beal, Bol Bol and Damien Lee
The Warriors need him..SA need to stop this trying to not let him go to the Warriors..Its literally pissing me off..
Can’t wait until ESPN allows Shams to report about other NBA players 🤣
Who ever gets Butler will have more drama to follow reguardless.
6:07 It IS Steph but because he’s the facilitator. KD is more of an iso player. Steph has led a team to a championship on his own. Js two years ago, he ran thru every super team in the West nd then beat the CELTICS!!!!!! 😅
8:15 now THT I agree with by SAS.
I think it's a portion of who does Jimmy Butler need the most
4:44 If this Lebron they would be dragging his name through the mud. Instead they giving KD grace.
Butler will
Be a better fit with the suns
Im tired of this KD hate yall hate this man so bad all he do is be consistent and great and yall hate that😂😂
He'd be good on Mavs or bucks rn
Off the bench Big Perk, Jimmy won't touch that bench until Jimmy wants to touch that bench, he would now have an Axe to grind with the professor and the Miami Heat
the answer is the wizards
What's that old saying... The grass is always greener
6:07 Steph is more Reliable then KD
Butler will play for warriors
Why would anyone want a player who quits on his team making 50mil per year, get rid of him and make the NBA great again
Butler doesn’t help either team with size and length at the C position. Both teams have soft interiors.
Sometimes I don't understand these basketball takes 😂😂... the Suns have BOOKER, KD, and Beal.
The Warriors have Curry out there playing with Garry Payton as Power Forward... what are we talking about here?
Jimmy needs to be a Knick
ESPN are going INKED😂😂
Who are the Suns going to trade? Idk where he’s gonna go
It's one thing to expect Beal to waive his no trade clause to the Heat, but to accept Beal with a no trade clause from Pat Riley's perspective is just laughable. Who else do the Suns have to trade with the Heat? No one outside of Booker or KD which I doubt will happen. Warriors do have draft picks to give up and package that with Wiggins who has a team friendly contract. It's a win-win for both sides. Suns gave up all their future assets for KD(understandable) and Beal who has a no trade clause.
5:41 Draymond Green caught a stray! 😅
The Suns need to try to get De’Aaron Fox
If Suns want Jimmy then its on the Suns to get Beal to a 3rd team. Under no circumstances do the Heat want Beal.
Miami made it clear they don’t want Bradley Beal!!
Stephen A smith jimmy Butler deadline, trade next week👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
The Spurs would be the best fit
Giannis needs to ask for a trade. Get Butler or he leaves.
Wow THEY just had too mention N.Y. lmao i'm Done 😮😅.
Butler won’t change things in Phoenix
Draymond Green broke up that team curry is not a leader
All Steph curry needs is a big man and a solid 2 man
There is one team ideally placed to make a deal. One team that could and (probably) would trade for him and it’s Memphis. Ironically that the one place he’s refusing to go. Jimmy is a nightmare
Butler want help either team win a chip😂😂😂😂😂
No he WANT 😂😂😂😂😂
He want to play
Warriors should trade for Beal in a 3 team trade with miami , sending butler to suns .
Jimmy to DALLAS!!
Nobody needs a headache.
Stupid question. Who needs him most doesn’t matter at all. It’s all about who can get the deal done.
JB now helping either squad get over the top. About 2-3 years too late.
Jimmy to Dallas ✅
If you didn’t hate him why u pick Steph over him??? a real basketball person knows KD has been the better player for longer time
Butler said he never wanted to be on a big 3 type of team. 😊😊😊😊
Why not Jimmy to the Atlanta Hawks and give Trae Young and them young fellas help
Brad Beal waive that NTC!!!!
Ayo what happened to Bradley Beal? Is he injured?
It's crazy that they think Jimmy can bring a championship to either team...he's not a superstar....maybe the third option for Phoenix that may help them...but not to win a Championship
Jimmy does not need to go to the suns.
7:16 no he doesn’t. He’s like fifth.
Has anyone ever asked Malika to explain how there’s a victim in a consensual relationship
that’s not the offense that 8:04
Pat riley aint stupid. He probably wants devin booker for the future
you don’t watch the phoenix suns games because if u did you would know KD does wayyy more then just stick his hand out for the ball
🙄… Jimmy Butler needs Jimmy Butler
Tired of him.
KD has been the better player for longer period
