The Athletic NBA Daily
Anthony Edwards carries Minnesota | Beal benched; Suns win

There are a lot of athletes who kind of in these types of situations, especially his situation, could easily pout. Yeah. And he did not look like that. If you want to be a body language doctor, a body language expert from tonight, he looks like a guy who's who wants to go out there and play and win games.

There are all sorts of issues with the team this season, and one game is not going to solve that. And potentially, even as we talk about it, one trade alone is not going to solve that. But it was it was good just to see them smile a bit for once.

Yes, it was a great question, but it was absolutely necessary. It's maybe a little bit counterintuitive for people who write some people. I mean, I think a lot of people have been saying for a long time, these three stars don't fit together. Yeah. But what helps that it happened now is a you have the whole Bradley Beal trade rumors looming. Yeah.

Of course, we all know that he has the no trade clause and and maybe, you know, that is a way to sort of push him to be willing to waive that. So that's there. And you have to consider that. But there's also a statistical objective argument for as a as a basketball team, why this was a good move for them. Yeah, just throw a couple lineup stats at you guys.

When Devin Booker, Bradley Beal, and Kevin Durant share the floor this season, I think they have a net rating of minus seven when all three of them are together. When just Booker and Durant are on the floor and Beal is off, that flips to a plus six. And so, you know, which doesn't make them doesn't make them an elite contender or anything.

But the difference between a plus six and a minus seven, there's been this consistent thread throughout the season of kind of every lineup Bradley Beal has been a part of. He's sort of tanked the net rating a little bit with a couple of particular exceptions. And so, you know, it was something that had to happen again. I don't think that one move by itself fixes this team, but we'll see.

Maybe, you know, they have a weaker schedule coming up here over the next couple of weeks and. And maybe they can generate some positive momentum before the trade deadline even comes.
