This man has never been this wide open, and he was an elite shooter last year in Washington.

He's taken 38 shots and is 60% from 2 and 62% from 3.

Everyone is talking about the Giannis/Dame PnR, but I believe the Tatum/Porzingis PnR is going to be as deadly because of their size and shooting combination.

Dude is gone look like an absolute hero. Between Porzingis looking like an all nba guy in Boston and Beal shooting 110% in Phoenix the Wizards subreddit might very well collapse into a hellmouth this season.

Im confused as to why the wizards felt like they needed to blow everything up

This is a great question. You can't be too excited about these guys for their new teams if they really didn't accomplish anything together.

what do you mean, wizards fans have been begging for a rebuild for years. they made some good trades in the past, which allowed them to get KP and Kuzma, but the bench was horrible and the starters could never stay on the floor together. with no assets to play with and Beals horrible contract, the teams ceiling was getting like the 8 seed and get bounced by whichever team won the east that year

The Wiz have been making moves to stay stuck in 8th seed/play-in purgatory for years when they should've hit the bullet and gone full rebuild ages ago.

So fucking mad that we couldnt trade for him. Was salary fillers + 17th pick really not good enough?

Nah, we happy for KP, and Beal was always going to shine as a 2nd/3rd option. Beal overstayed his welcome here, and KP deserved to be on a contender. Worked out pretty well considering.
