Old with a $200 million payroll and no good draft picks is pretty much a guarantee of disaster over the mid to long term. They'll make it look respectable for another year or two on Durant's back and then they're back in the lottery once he walks in two years. Having to pay Beal $50 million to $57 million a year over the next three seasons means they cannot make any move to improve the team in any meaningful way. They've blown past the second apron of the luxury tax which kills their ability to aggregate salaries to trade for a more expensive player, they'll only have a taxpayer midlevel exception of $5 million to spend on free agents instead of the nearly $13 million non luxury tax teams get so they're not getting anything good there, some of their draft swaps are so mortgaged they get the worst out of three picks instead the worst out of two, etc, it's ing bleak for them. Their only hope would be lucking into the next Giannis with a mid first round pick but this is the franchise who drafted Dragan Bender, Josh Jackson, DeAndre Ayton, and Jarrett Culver in back to back to back to back years with top 5 picks then Jalen Smith (at 10) and Day'Ron Sharpe as their first round picks in the 2020s. So they're just not the front office that's going to uncover a diamond in the rough in the draft. Of all the teams in the league they're probably the biggest trainwreck so you'll be eating good on Suns fans tears for many more years.
