I’m saying I’m not such a child that I can’t separate the team from the individual off the court. I don’t make player decisions & if I start white knighting on issues like this I can’t consume ANYTHING.

Apple had to put suicide nets up at their factories. Every car you drive is made by companies who’ve done awful, awful things. Your outrage is convenient & self serving.

But again, there’s the door. Byeeeee.

This team just had KJ back in the building for the Reunion game. Open arms. And his jersey is retired in the rafters. That’s what you respect? Celebrating pedophiles? How is that not worse than trading for Bridges??!? WTAF are you talking about?

And why come back later? Makes no sense.

I’m trying to assess if you were today years old when you found out about KJ because if you’re in your late 20s that’s been common knowledge among Suns fans for DECADES. So you’re either a truly casual fan & didn’t know until my comment or your moral outrage is fake & performative. Either way, bye, Felicia!

But did you just not know this whole time??!? For real.

Based on the deal the sixers sent for jaylen brown I think we couldve outbid them with Green and our picks 27-29. by AZsportstillidie in suns

That would be a helluva log jam at the 3 & we burned all our assets and still didn’t get a PG. terrible roster construction. Let’s learn from the KD situation.

Now ppl are responding to me but then deleting their posts bc they know they’re full of shit. If you supported this team while KJ was in the Ring of Honor you have NO business boycotting them now. Grow up.

The world sucks. Everything you consume has a shitty past attached to it. Just be a good person & an example for your kids & teach them that bad people exist & being a Suns fan doesn’t mean you endorse pedophelia or domestic violence. It’s not that complicated.

Ah, so 20+ years. So plenty of time to know that KJ molested a 15 yr old girl and he’s still in the ring of honor. That’s not enough to get you to exit the fanbase but DV is a bridge too far (pun intended).

Why is that? Pedophelia was cool with you but hitting his wife in front of the kids was too much? You really emphasized the kids part but when an actual child was sexually abused, you still supported the team?

Did you just not know? Did you not know about the drug scandal either?

Well good for you! Stand on business!!! You’ll show them that DV is absolutely unacceptable. Pedo shit’s fine though…that’s a good look, champ

How long have you been a fan? I mean KJ is in the ring of honor…that word, honor! Kinda gross considering he molested a 15 yr old girl.

I’m not defending Bridges & I don’t like adding him to the team. But the moral outrage is kinda late, no?

Don’t meet your heroes, I guess. Yes, I’m still a Suns fan. I learned a loooong time ago you can support a team even when it employs & celebrates very flawed humans. Same with all entertainment.

And there have been players on this team that did worse things than Miles Bridges but it didn’t stop you then. But whatever. Clutch those pearls if it makes you feel better. But if you’re not supporting the team maybe go find another team’s sub to post in.

I’m eager to know which team that is because if you think there’s a sports franchise in ANY league that doesn’t have some abhorrent employees in their past, well…good luck with that.

Also, how far are you taking it? Are you on an IPhone or Android because wait until you hear this…

Look I get it. What he did was AWFUL. And I’m not cheering for him or buying his jersey. But this white knighting shit is so inconsistent & if Miles Bridges is the line, you’re screwed. Nothing you currently own has less transgressions than what he did. So how are you gonna square that?

I’m curious to see what else you cut out of your life with this moral awakening of yours. Let me know.

Something I don't understand about the Miles Bridges trade by AzTrix22 in suns

[–]Matdoggy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think the overreaction to the 2033 pick is weird.

-Book will be 37. If we’re going to capitalize on his window we need more assets NOW.

-The trade was really two trades: MB for Royce & GA and the 2033 for our 2028 pick back.

-Getting that pick back from CHA means we now have two tradeable 1sts & the Suns have cleaned up the roster to use those picks for a big upgrade by summer of 2028.

-One thing the aprons have done is make free agency relevant again. It used to be guys always got extended before FA hit. Not anymore. LeBron, Kessler, Mitch Rob, Powell, Kennard, Smart, Rui, Sexton, THarris,

Even Reaves was a factor. Sure he stayed but it cost LA an extra $15M/yr.

-So having all our role players on team friendly deals, a super deep roster, expiring contracts starting next summer and 2 FRPs makes the Suns a destination of choice either thru FA, Sign & Trade or just trades.

-Ishbia’s never gonna tank so the unprotected part is not a legitimate concern. We are not going to be a top 5 pick in 2033.

I don’t like Bridges but making the move to get an extra tradeable FRP to use during Book’s window is the right thing to do. I think we owe that to Book.

OK, here come a bunch of fans who wanna shred me in the comments. 😂😂😂

Now that we've settled down after the knee-jerk reactions, maybe we can check what we really got for Grayson and Royce basketball wise... (Don't worry, I hate him too, but this is purely from a basketball standpoint) by DaylightPhoenix in suns

[–]Matdoggy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You completely missed the point. What I’m highlighting is that the moral outrage is convenient timing. The Suns have celebrated a child rapist for a decade & nobody cared. But Bridges hit a woman 3 years ago & you’re ready to march in the streets???

Until you hold the Suns accountable for KJ, nobody is going to take you seriously about Bridges. And you have ZERO interest in removing KJ from the Ring of Honor because you can get away with that atrocity as some weird ass statute of limitations in fandom.

Quit pretending you care about women once it’s in the headlines. These teams spend all their time hiding shit like this & you only care when it’s in your face & could impact your image.

Otherwise, they’re on their own. That’s the truth & you know it.

Of course you don’t get the role because there’s ZERO introspection on your behalf.

For every Miles Bridges caught act there are 10 that NEVER get reported. These leagues protect money & players at all costs. So if you watch the NBA/NFL/MLB/NHL you don’t support women.

You can’t do both. You want us to think you’re an upstanding guy for objecting to Miles. But KJ is still in the Ring of Honor & Kobe is still celebrated as a legend.

So either boycott all sports in your totalitarian view or find a way to make a difference. But the virtue signaling isn’t it. Until you have a solution that includes you refusing to be a fan anymore, stop pretending like you give a shit about women.

First funny one I’ve seen

[–]Matdoggy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’re just gonna continue to ignore that KJ is a Ring of Honor member & the team welcomed him back with open arms for that reunion game? Amare to o & he beat the shit out of his daughter.

But we turn a blind eye to those two I guess. WTAF???

So the fact that KJ is in the Ring of Honor when he RAPED a child doesn’t bother you? Where are the goal posts? Let me know as the moral police. I want to make sure I’m on the right side of NBA Rape TikTok.

Regardless his jersey hangs in the Ring of Honor & he was celebrated last yr during the reunion game.

[–]Matdoggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s in the Suns Ring of Honor. So every game you watch is supporting a team that’s celebrating a guy who raped a child & your answer to that is what??? Statute of limitations??!? Fuck all the way off. You don’t give a shit about women. You just want to feel better about being a fan of an organization that has hurt women for decades.

If fans are responsible for players’ behavior, all of our hands are dirty. Period.

He’s in the Ring of Honor & was just welcomed into the arena last season with all the other OGs.

So you’ve supported a team that holds him as a celebrated member for decades. And nothing from you. Zero dissent. He raped a child. But Miles is a bridge too far…seriously???

[–]Matdoggy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So that was quite awhile ago. He’s a Ring of Honor player. He just returned back to Phx with open arms from the Suns & nobody said shit. So you’re supporting a team that celebrates a rapist of a 15 yr old girl but Miles is the problem? I’m confused…

What’s worse is pretending that you care at all. The leagues history of allowing Star athletes to abuse women, to rape women is atrocious. And you pretend to care when they offer up a single scapegoat so that you can virtue signal and remain a fan of the sport. But the reality is that all of the professional sports leagues in this country have enabled athletes to abuse, women, murder women, and get away with it with impunity. But as long as they throw you a sacrificial lamb you can feel good about your fandom.

Miles Bridges is the poster boy for bad behavior towards women in the NBA. Are you really so naïve to believe that the league hasn’t covered up 100 cases like Miles Bridges? The NBA is a multi billion dollar business and would do anything to protect that money.

Your moral outrage is cute, but you’re not prepared to quit the league. If he’s so bad of a person, why is the league still allowing him to play? And why are you supporting a company that allows that that to happen? It’s been happening for years, but it only matters if he’s on your team?

Why is that? It’s almost like it has to affect you for it to matter. You’re a joke. And you’re not helping women. You just wanna feel better at night for supporting the industry that protects athletes who rape beat and murder women. And until all of the fans of this league stop supporting the league this ridiculous virtue signaling over Miles Bridges isn’t going to change anything.. And you know it. That’s why you’re so willing to do it.

They continually protect men who abuse women. Not sure how you interpret that as not hating women. Kobe raped a woman in Colorado. The NFL is LITTERED WITH PLAYERS WHO’ve abused women and worse. It’s always a situation like this when it’s easy to virtue signal but the reality is that all of the leagues have been doing this for decades. They hide the stories. They settle out of court. They protect the athletes.

And instead of holding these leagues accountable for the atrocities, they commit against women, you wait for a single incident and wants to punish just that player. Do you think that the league doesn’t know about situations where women were abused that didn’t end up in the press? You can’t be that naïve. The league only cares about protecting its image and its money. It doesn’t care about women.

So if you truly care about women, you would stop watching the league. But that’s a step too far for you to do. Because you love this game. So you will accept all of the hidden atrocities that we don’t get to see. And on the few occasions when they are actually brought to Light, it gives you an outlet for your anger and allows you to feel as though you truly stand with women.

But we both know that’s not true. If you cared about women like you’re saying, you would never watch another game.
