Bill becomes the biggest burden to the sun! He was out of Dub to lead the team to a 10-3 record: multiple stats ranked at the top of the league

On March 21, Beijing time, Evan Sidery posted a set of data to prove what a great team the Suns would be without Beal. In addition, he continued to complain about Budenholzer's previous decision to abandon rookie Dunn, because Dunn does play a very prominent role in the Suns system.

"This year, when Bradley Beal wasn't on the floor, the Suns were a standout team, with an offensive efficiency of 116.2 (7th in the league), a defensive efficiency of 112.5 (12th in the league) and a net efficiency of +3.7 (9th in the league)," Sidery wrote. When Durant and Booker play together and Beal is out, the Suns have a 10-3 record, which translates to 63 wins. ”

Beal's salary this season is $50.2 million, and he has two years left on his contract, $53.66 million for the 2025-26 season and a $57.12 million player option for the 2026-27 season.

It's not just his mega-contract with a trade veto that hurts Bill, but also the negative effects on the court. The data shows that in the 1,545 minutes that Beal was on the court, the Suns lost to their opponents by 7.4 points per 100 rounds, while in the 1,848 minutes he was not on the court, the Suns were able to win opponents by 4.4 points per 100 rounds.

In addition to complaining about Bill's impact, Sidery also talked about Budenholzer's previous deprecation of Dunn. "In the four games since Ryan Dunn returned to the rotation, he averaged 15.5 points and 4.8 rebounds per game, and he averaged 3 steals + blocks per game. The Suns are 3-1 in these four games, their best weekly record in nearly two months. Budenholzer had previously removed Dunn from the rotation for six weeks. ”

The Suns will next have a purgatory-level difficulty schedule, and the rest of the matches are scheduled as follows -

March 22, Cavaliers (1st in the East, 56-13)

March 25, Bucks (5th in the East, 38-30)

March 27, Celtics (2nd in the East, 50-19)

March 29, Timberwolves (8th in the West, 40-31)

March 31, Rockets (2nd in the West, 45-25)

April 2, Bucks (5th in the East, 38-30)

April 5, Celtics (2nd in the East, 50-19)

April 7, Knicks (3rd, 43-25th in the East)

April 9, Warriors (6th in the West, 40-29)

April 10, Thunder (1st in the West, 57-12)

April 12, Spurs (13th in the West, 29-39)

April 14, Kings (9th Western, 35th-33rd)
