"on the Beal side of things, he had one of his better games of the year on Saturday" ... Beal started the game 10-12 FG and ended the game 11-20 FG. That means when the game was in balance, he shot 1-8 FG. If this is one of his better games of the season, that says a whole lot (or little) about his production this season lol
Could've sworn Brendon you for years haven't addressed the mental weakness of the players James Jones trades for. For me. It's not the team can't win without KD. It's the team can't win without KD and Book together. The gap between those two and everyone else on the roster is miles.
Ben sounding so sure the locker room is a mess despite having no sources and just watching the games like the rest of us is so funny to me. They just don’t have a good defensive roster! It’s that simple.
We're they distracted last season? This season is playing out so far much like last season. Still too small, poor defense, too many turnovers, and the big one injuries too starters again and again.
Ben makes this POD unwatchable with the amount of baseless statements he puts out there, and although I appreciate Brendon pushing back, it makes the show more like ESPN filled with hot takes instead of breaking down the games.
Push force Beal and may be Okogie and get Jimmy that will help with the mental block of Booker and KD and you get a proven clutch player and also a player who knows how to play the game.
We definitely know Miami doesn’t want him. Beal reported that he wanted to go to Miami and Phoenix wasn’t on his radar when he left The Wizards and he said Miami called him and said “they couldn’t do it”. Why would they want him now? Jimmy is a better player than Beal… wouldn’t the Heat just pay Jimmy the $ they’d pay Beal but instead they get a good player in Jimmy instead if a mediocre Beal?
Beal was having a good game but sold down the stretch against The Pistons. Idk why they didn’t just stick with KD, he got a foul, a bucket, or an open 3 for a teammate everytime.
Guys Bradley Beal is a negative trade asset, to get off Beal it would take a first to get rid of him…the Heat are going to want more back then Beal and a first for Butler. Please get that out of your mind; there are real deals out there for Butler compared to negative trade assets. The only way a deal gets done is if they circumvent the apron rules…
Bro Ben we just lost to the pistons and the pacers back to back. Trying to compare us to the grizzlies and rockets who are actually competing for top seedings saying we would beat them in a 7 game series is actually delusional right now. Be real bro we aren't a contender atm. Its that simple
@@BenGarciaShow The rockets I won’t necessarily disagree with because of their youth. But the grizzlies are a contender. They are one of the few teams to go to Boston and beat a fully healthy Celtics team. They are also top 5 in the league in scoring, fg %, point differential, reb and blocks. If they aren’t i don’t know who is.
ben your wrong !!!! the suns don’t need butler at all . i think they should let beal get use to playing for once dude never plays but even if they trade him we don’t need another star that wat made em top heavy to begin with. i disagree with trading him i think he could help win a ring but if they did trade him they need couple above average role players more than a 3rd star again
That’s a funny outlook because it’s all you, TH-camrs and media people spreading the trade rumors putting that shit in their heads if everybody would quit making shit up
If you guys were doing Locked On Heat, would you want Beal’s contract? It would be better to let Jimmy walk in FA than tie up your books….please think rationally rather than passionately….
They should focus on getting Kessler and sexton. Nurkic and Okogie and the 2031 first and one second rounder would be ideal. Suns would also get Kessler’s bird rights if I’m correct
I think Bud is making some bad rotation choices at times .....the Rooks should be playing more .....look at the rotations at the beginning of the season those guys were playing more we need their energy....... some of those games we lost, we fought back with a particular rotation, but then Bud moved off of it, and the teams pulled away again... also, i think he wants to long to call timeouts(he waits until we give up leads to call it or teams go on double-digit runs). I see all over a lot of other coaches stop runs by taking timeouts, and Bud needs to do that as well
i do think it’s possible for beal to get in rythym with KD and rest of team and he could b the booker . i really don’t think booker is better than beal the team is just way more familiar with Booker
Suns def dont need Butler hed be a better fit than Beal sure but hes 36 and is just as injury prone. They don't need to even trade Beal tbh he needs to come off the bench so Suns can start some actual size to help Nurk in the front court and put KD back to playing the 3. If they do somehow get a trade for Beal done (who could've seen having a super max player with a no trade clause and being a second apron team not going well Thanks Mat Ishbia 🙄) hopefully its for some more depth
Why TF would Miami want overpaid often injured Beal when they have Herro career year playing his position? Unless there is 3rd team no way in hell they get Beal for Butler (even with draft capital). Of course Butler helps this team over Beal that’s not up for debate for anyone. Who wants him on this contract now that he’s injury prone is the question. What all else can Suns give? Dunn and what picks/swaps can be added to it? What makes Miami want to do it especially if Warriors can offer Kuminga/Wiggins picks etc which is more intriguing than injury prone overpaid, older Beal.
Bradley Beal along with so many other aging/overrated elderly NBA players that are wearing ski masks because of the ridiculous $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ they make..What a laundry list that is!!!
Jimmy stinks?? Did you not see the masterclass performance he had just a few games ago. Much better fit than Beal, a Swiss Army knife wing who can defend. Although we desperately need a center
It's not the trading rumors, it's the fact that they suck.
Well said

The problem is not about offense. Our defense is atrocious. I am not even sure whether someone like Herbert jones can make us better.
We just need get bigger having 3 guards on their starting lineup just don’t work
Could've sworn Brendon you for years haven't addressed the mental weakness of the players James Jones trades for.
For me. It's not the team can't win without KD. It's the team can't win without KD and Book together. The gap between those two and everyone else on the roster is miles.

Trade Allen for Dorian Finney Smith and my sanity will return
It’s called an opinion brotha
@@BenGarciaShow An opinion on something you know nothing about is pointless
@@marcr196 idk if I say I know nothing about it 😂 I do cover the team man lol.

Everybody talking about trading Beal when the real problem is our center position
Suns need to call Jazz about Kessler

KD is a basketball vampire. He moves from team to team sucking the positive energy out of the team & then moves on every 2 years
You’re blaming KD? what a hater, he’s been the best player on every team he’s been on.
2 years at okc was he 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Would butler even wanna still come here when we barley even look like a play in caliber team
He would
Kd to Houston

All Ben does is name drop and pump up dreams
I don’t think we’re a contender rn but I don’t think the Griz or Rockets are either

KD is a terrific player but I can't help but think trading Bridges, then CP3 has crippled any team chemistry they once had.😔
Brendan, watch the Timeline podcast, they said Beal is this years Eubanks, straight up

Ben and Brendon, please give your thoughts.
A lot of us are big time suns fan. But the way they are playing is frustrating. We are going to lose hope and interest very soon
Brendon and Benjamin they need to get more athletic and more size in a trade, similar to what Dallas did last year. 🏀🙏
Damn Shazam!
Waz up ✌️

KD been playing too well for us to be this bad
No one is stepping up. Yes including KD, Beal and Book. Everyone hope someone else will step up
Can someone tell the organization??? Fans are frustrated with playerssss
there losing to too many shitty. and mid tier teams it’s close to the point where im like 0 chance in a ring this year
i do think it’s possible for beal to get in rythym with KD and rest of team and he could b the booker . i really don’t think booker is better than beal the team is just way more familiar with Booker
Suns need a major inside O and less 3 ball
Collins and Clarkson for Beal will be a better fit then Butler.
Suns def dont need Butler hed be a better fit than Beal sure but hes 36 and is just as injury prone. They don't need to even trade Beal tbh he needs to come off the bench so Suns can start some actual size to help Nurk in the front court and put KD back to playing the 3.

If I'm an opposing team...I am trying to get KD!!!!! because he is on the TITANIC!!!!!!!!!!
They are passing the ball too much!!! No passion to play ball. So sad.

It’s fasho distractions. They starting to just suit up 🤷🏽♂️
The trade is not happening.
I dont understand why suns fans think miami would do that trade lol
hi guys
So what’s next??? Fire coach and hire someone else?
all rumors lmao
Trade grayson to sac for keon ellis and trey lyels
I rather they trade for DFS for Allen
We need to trade for Jimmy before it’s too late, we can’t even beat the Pistons(at home court)
Nurk worst center ever 0 defense
Bradley Beal along with so many other aging/overrated elderly NBA players that are wearing ski masks because of the ridiculous $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ they make..What a laundry list that is!!!
SUNS are really BAD!!!!!!!!! Jimmy Buckets STINKS!!!!!!!!!!! the last thing we need! Just imagine how bad we would be if we didn't have KD!!!
Jimmy stinks?? Did you not see the masterclass performance he had just a few games ago. Much better fit than Beal, a Swiss Army knife wing who can defend. Although we desperately need a center
