How Kevin Durant & The Suns KILLED The NBA’s Big 3 Era

How Kevin Durant & The Phoenix Suns KILLED The NBA’s Big 3 Era as Gilbert Arenas & the Gil’s Arena Crew break down the disappointing season for Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal and Devin Booker and debate if this poor showing from one of the NBA’s most hyped squads is enough for NBA teams to move to a team centric approach over simply gathering stars. They also discuss what his roster may need to turn things around before highlighting a potential game changer sitting on their bench in Bol Bol.

Gil’s Arena premieres every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 11:30am PT / 2:30pm ET.

  1. Brandon has to be one of the least intelligent successful business people i ever saw

  2. Brandon needs to be replaced. He sucks at debating. His takes don't make any sens. As an ex basketball player he should know more facts.

  3. Kenyon get mad and start name calling πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. Watch out for ppl like that. Dude needs some healing πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  4. Kenyon acts like the bully of the show. Wants everything his way. It's called Gil's Arena not the Kenyon show. Always so disgruntled but like him still because I like his takes

  5. Those best 3 players do the exact same thing, plus they are not good defenders. Your best 3 can't just score the ball.

  6. The problem is the Suns tried a "Big 3" with 3 MAX players. When LeBron, D-Wade and Bosh did it, they all took "pay cuts" to build the rest of the team. These Suns were over the cap before they signed anyone else. Bad financial investment. I understand the injuries and the ages, but it was broke before it started.

  7. This big 3 never made sense
    Beal and Booker are practically the same player, the 3 of them don't defend shit
    Bol Bol won't fix a god damn thing
    The rest of the team ain't good enough
    Is a poorly constructed roster that's all + they injure prone.

  8. We saw Bradley Beal as the number one option, he put up great stats on a garbage team in a weak conference. His numbers do not contribute to winning. Austin could not put up the offensive numbers Beal does but the team wouldn't be much or any worse than one led by Beal.

  9. Josiah said β€œis he wearing a headband or not” that is crazy work πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ 11:59

  10. Fans and media keep letting KD overrate-D off too easy.

    Mans had:

    Russ and Harden in OKC, two top 75, MVP'S.

    The fking 73/9, last year NBA champs and two years B2B finals Warriors.

    Kyrie, AND Harden in Brooklyn.

    CP, Book, Beal etc. in Phoenix.

    Apart from his rookie season in Seattle, KD has ALWAYS had a strong team. In the past 15 fking years, KD has always played with at least 2/3 all stars at any one time.

    Since leaving his daddy Steph, the Warriors have at least one a chip – BEFORE and AFTER KD. KD has not seen the finals or NBA 1st Team SINCE.

    LeBron would be crucified for this exact same ish.

  11. K-Mart needs to remind them what real dogs are because they seem to have forgotten. KG, Rodman, Draymond, etc.

  12. I'm im favor of Bol Bol getting more minutes but they hyping it up as if he is going to turn this team around

  13. It don’t work lmao. All 3 need the ball. It worked with the Warriors because Curry and Klay can play off ball, catch and shoot it.

  14. I actually think Booker is more of a "dog" than KD, because Booker has gone for 70pts. I have seen so many times KD shoot 7-12, or like 9-13, literally shooting the lights out percentage wise, yet he never heat checks and goes for 60 pts, never goes for big numbers, because he is too nice. He will end the game with 26 pts, shooting like 70% from the field. I could never comprehend that. If Kobe is shooting 70% in a game, he is going for 80! If MJ is shooting 70%, he will have 35 pts in the half. If Steph is shooting 70% from the field, he would have AT LEAST 45 pts. KD would have 26pts, 27pts. KD should have a ton of 60pt games under his belt, but he doesn't. I agree with K-mart, KD is an expensive "show dog" (which is not a bad thing at all). Booker, Kobe, Steph, etc are Rotweilers.

  15. Remember when people were calling Devin Booker the β€œNew Kobe?” Miss me with all that forever.
