At this rate, at the end of his career, Booker will have 10 daddies 👶🤣

Devin Booker: “respectfully , I don’t know how teams are gonna guard us” KD: “You can’t guard all of us at once” Timberwolves: We have a Jaden McDaniels

Durant's Google search history: weather in Minnesota? Taxes in Minnesota? 😂😂😂

Beal having a no trade clause is wild. Steph, Lebron, KD, Giannis having a no trade clause makes sense but Beal, bro wtf

I swear 2K ruined a generation of NBA fans ability to think critically. You can't just toss a bunch of random "stars" together and expect success. Not a shock Minnesota punked the Suns. The sweep was a little unexpected but that's about it.

As a 26 Year Old Wolves fan. Im just glad we made it to 2nd round. Last time we did I was in 1st grade lol

Phoenix is a strange team, I never knew a team that so small and still doesn't have a true point guard 😂

I can already see KD asking for a trade early next season 🤣

No 1st round picks until 2030 is mind blowing. How can a team even allow that to happen?

I love the confidence ant has for his teammate that he was willing to make such a statement about him.

Kevin Durant being the best option to play CENTER was wild.

Suns fucked up getting Beal!! He's injury prone and definitely not worth 50 million a year

"They got KD, We got Jaden McDaniels" Sounds like a joke at first but now it make sense

Respect to KD and the rest, it is not easy to go against prime MJ

Suns vs Wolves series is the best example of "Offence gets the glory, but defense wins you games"

“Devin Booker is soft as Charmin.” - Kobe Bryant probably.

Man KD is part of two of the worst super teams ever!!! That’s crazy but expected coming from him!!

Suns put 3 Elite scorers together….no leader ..no dawgs…no glue…no bench. These MAX contracts are going to ruin most NBA/NFL teams. GMs are trying to mesh a few overpaid superstars with young cheap talent? KAT, Beal, Lavine, Jaylen Brown….all great scorers….but not worth 50+million a year. We see the same thing in the NFL. Once you pay a qb 45/yr+ million or a reciever 30+ million….the clock is ticking. You have to draft perfectly and you begin to lose quality vets I like the way the Knicks are building… hopefully they don’t throw away their chemistry for a big name

The league is full of stacked or well constructed rosters from top to bottom. I hope things like this helps put an end to the super team era and helps remind GMs not to make these kinds of mistakes. The NBA is in an amazing place rn with great young stars and teams. Super competitive, super fun. Hope it stays this way.

Their future is absolutely horrible!!! No draft picks for the rest of the decade??? Paying dudes in their mid 30s hundreds of millions of dollars??? No cap room to add better players??? They’re lucky they even made the playoffs!!

The Nets had one of these paper super teams as well from '21-'23, with Durant, Harden, and Irving, and they did absolutely fuckin' nothing with them.

Mat Ishbia was playing 2K fantasy roster building irl and built a team that makes no sense. Just a bunch shooters with name recognition.

Ain't no way nurkic gonna box out gobert and kat at the same time while kat is also a stretch bigs

People need to realize that star power isn't what it once was in this league... Case in point, last night a guy making $60M scored 17, and his teammate makes $18M scored 38 in the same game. With the increase in scoring this year, what is the determining factor for whether a player is a star, or a role player?

I was really rooting for the Pelicans last night, just to be able to say the Suns were the only team swept out of the first round 😂

They said that Book statement at the start would be the new “we fine in the West” and could not have been more right😭💀

As a Suns fan this season was disappointing and extremely frustrating

_The Suns have one expensive pickup squad._

The Suns are an example of how to NOT build a NBA super team.

Team won’t need to guard you because they know you won’t guard them… 😂😂😂

The fact that the Suns swept the Wolves in the regular season makes their playoff sweep all the more impressive. This time of year you find out that not every team has an extra playoff gear

Agreeing to pay Beal 50milli a year is criminal

After all the tragedy he's been through in the last 2-3 years, its nice to see KAT finally get some good karma.

Now, only Steph Curry has avoided being swept.

Man, if Bradley Beal doesn't pull off a redemption arc, his legacy will be of "an above average fish, in a REALLY small pond"

"Acquires the corpse of paul peirce and kevin garnet" made me lol

With the “Stepian rule” in place how can the Suns have no picks for 6 years? The Stepian rule keeps teams from trading draft picks over consecutive years. They can swap draft position with other teams, but that just changes there draft positioning with the team they traded with. So the Suns definitely have a 1st round pick every other year until 2030, but they will be swaps. Which means the Suns will draft in the position of the team they traded with, and the team they traded with will draft in the Suns position if it’s a better pick, hence a swap.

Beal is the polar bear in arlington texas

I don’t know why I stopped getting your videos but I’m happy the algorithm is showing them again.

No built in commercial! Thumb up!

Any general manager worth their salt creating a super team needs to only have 2 main scorer while the third star is the unselfish, creative or defensive superstar. Having 3 score first stars is foolish. I would sell Kd. Beal is expensive but younger. Worth keeping.

Bro that has to be some kind of talent, deserving of an award or something. The fact that they outshined the KD, Kyrie and Harden for worst superteam ever assembled

Im so glad my Celtics went after Jrue and not Beal. There was talks that they were in on Beal and that would've been a disaster. He is just a role player on a good team and a "star" on a bad team.

I was like damn Andy was going in on the suns at the end…savage😂

The clippers, suns, and lakers all play great for stretches of games and then they play terrible for the same amount of time and you just gotta hope that they are playing good when playoff time comes or they going home early

What makes this "super team" more sad is just less than three years ago, they were only 2 games away from a championship. Organization blew up their rotation, defense, and depth just for the allure of making a super team.

Wtf was everyone expecting of beal? Isnt he an injured washed up shooting guard even though booker is already a shooting guard?

How Andy Hoops Built the Most Robotic Voice Ever

Look at the office in Denver. Good role player acquisition, trust in the coach and developing a core of young guys to a bigh three paired with some good vets, defensive guys and backup options brought them the chip

“I ain’t never been swept a day in my life” he never played in the playoffs either b4 now

Ayton was playing good basketball after the all star break

Humility is important

The trade for Nurkic and Allen for Ayton i could live with (Allen was very good this regular season), however the Beal trade was an absolute gut punch. CP3 whilst not perfect was a far better fit and easier to move given his contract size and it being non-guaranteed. Now the got 2+1 years of Bradley Beal left with his no trade clause still lurking. It was one of the worst contract in the NBA when they traded for it and probably is the worst right now !

Small victory is that my Pistons won the same amount of playoff games as these Suns. Mind blown.

Will you do a deep dive video of the success for each super team since 2008? I feel like there’s been at least 15 “super teams” since then.

I swear, the moment that Beal trade was announced, I didn't even think they were gonna reach the playoffs.

A deeply flawed team. I never thought it would work. Thanks, Andy.

I remember at the start of this season when the Suns were puffing their chests because they acquired Beal. I was....unimpressed. No defense, no depth I said. A friend who bets on the games was trying to convince me that Phoenix was a scary team that I was taking way too lightly. Fast forward a few months and all of a sudden he's betting on Minnesota. 🤣

Background music: 🏖️☀️😎 Content of the video: 📉🏀👎🏻

My guy, my pal, my good budd. Oh man oh man ur off, Eric Gordon would play on many playoff teams… that take was crazyyyyy

Everyone laughed at Ant’s Jaden McDaniels comment at the time, but no one’s laughing now

Gobert got that help to defend the perimeter in Jaden McDaniels

That comparison to Tobias Harris was on point.

The General Manager is awful.. Let's not forget he selected Deande Ayton over Luka Donic. He gets a pass since the media in Phoenix is soft.😊

That's where I have a problem with modern basketball. In the 90s and late 2000s, even role players did both defense and some offense. Where now the socres can shoot 3s to make up for some guys not even scoring. Playing both sides is tough, and only doing half your job isn't fun to watch.

At 4:24 you can see how fast the timberwolves contested each player on the suns. Great defense!!

I just don’t know why the got Beal they could have got 4-5 well decent players for his 50mill contract 😊

I only play franchise on 2k24 and when I say trying to pick teams are harder then it looks that’s why I had to restart so much

They have no assets until 2031 and frankly I don't even know what you say right now.

How many super teams KD needs?😂

Booker still got the Mamba Mentality. 😂😂😁

Beal never been Swept in his life. That would require Getting to the Playoffs!! How fkn stupid.

2013 Brooklyn Nets superteam won one playoff series. 2021 Brooklyn Nets superteam reached ECF. 2024 Phoenix Suns superteam got swept and none of the games were even close.

Great video covers Andy let's be fair they never played a whole season together if it's a failure then you can make this video 10 times

Gotta do a part 2 with the Milwaukee bucks next

Wild to say this when theres been so many other failed super teams. Just look at the Clippers right now

Ironically with his build and shooting profile, McDaniels had a lot of comparisons offensively to KD when he was in HS/AAU. It just seems when he hit the pros he leaned more into his defensive identity.

the brooklyn experiment showed the high risk of such super teams. If one star gets hurt - there goes 30 millions and 1/2 or 1/3 of your firepower out of the window.

KD teams always have the same problem, they stack up scoring talent but not actual team depth, that only worked on GS because it was already a 73-9 win team and in all honesty that NBA was not close to as deep as this NBA is, if he didn’t get as greedy with wanting harden on his team back in 21 then he would’ve won another ring, this suns team just needed to get more depth not Bradley Beal.

Social media so gross always about big talk instead of substance & quality. Really sad world we live in. Anything for money 😂😂😂

I thought the NBA changed the rules so you aren't allowed to trade your 1st round pick in consecutive years because of teams like the Clippers and Knicks who wouldn't stop completely destroying their futures

Ryan Davis wasn’t lyin 😂😂

Devin Booker suffered four playoff specials in his career. - The Giannis 50-piece Special (where it started) - The Luka Special (the breaking point and the breakout year) - The Nikola Special - The Ant Special (today)

The Suns do have first-round picks. They sent a bunch of pick swaps to Washington, which just means the Wizards have the option to substitute the Suns' pick for their own in 2024, 2026, and 2030 (assuming the Suns end up with a better pick in any of those years). 2028 is a little more complicated, but they have a first-round pick that year as well

The Suns are in a very difficult situation but please do some research on the CBA before putting out misinformation. Phoenix holds the 22nd pick in this upcoming draft and 3 more firsts between now and 2030. Pick swaps are different from traded picks

The comparison to the Garnett-KG BKN is such an accurate comparison. Suns should pray they don’t end up being the Nets of the west. 😂

I don't understand how they think they are a super team. All their super stars excel with a team with depth, but they traded all of them away for this roster. They become the regular stars without any rotation.

They are not that bad, next season with 1-2 additional role players, they can make it to the second round :)

No, the main guy for wolves defense is not Gobert, is McDaniels, it can be named triangle defense with the wolves it's kinda unique what they do, it has the essence of zone defense but only part of the roster plays zone, they will always have one big and two perimetre defenders on court, most of the time it's Ant McDaniels and Gobert, but they also have KAT and Slomo to play centre (Slomo against small ball), and they have Alexander-Walker who is very good too, Gobert on the wolves players rather different than when he was on Jazz, he doesn't have to choose between stay under the hoop or pushing outside to the three point line, there are always two good denders outside so Gobert only need to take care of the inside, and he is much more free to push against mid-range shots because there will always be good rebounders taking care of the space he gave up, like a FIBA style zone arms are moved in unit not individually, Gobert covers a big enough air space but not all, that's what centres do in FIBA defense, always team defense first, centres taking care of the ones perimeter failed to stop, but if you don't have outside great defense, centres do nothing. Just look at his rebounding numbers, he is dropping comparing to Utah but if you watch the game you will feel like he got a lot more, because there are less offensive rebound lost. Gobert is never good enough to be a one man stopper, he is not Dwight Howard, and with the wolves he doesn't have to be, which works for him and for the team, this not-technically zone defense is what he needs and what the team need off him.

Been saying it since day one. BEAL AINT THE REAL DEAL

2018 Thunder can give this team a run, prime Russ+ PG + Melo getting smoked in the first round by Rudy Gobert(aha) Ricky Rubio and a rookie Donovan Mitchell

3 players all making damn near 50 mill a year really led to 0 playoff wins . Even the wolves last year without 2 of their best 6 players at least took 1 game from Denver lol getting swept gotta lead to changes Beal may have a no trade but he'd 100% agree to a trade as long as its not to a bad team. But really they should move kd to try to add a few pieces plus some picks for the future if they run it back book gonna eventually want out

They went with the foolproof strategy of simply not having a point guard lmao

Tobias catching strays😂😂

I could swear we had this same exact discussion a few years ago about the nets… see a common denominator?

Eric Gordon is still in the league😂😂

Wow the defense is next level

This has “Not 1, not 2, not 3” energy

They tried to do the LA Rams strategy but the NBA doesn't have the draft depth for that

It's time for KD's new chapter in Minnesota ahahahahaha
