Trade Ideas - Bledsoe signs with Suns 5/$70 pg 106

[Jez2983]

Bledsoe signed and traded to Minny for Rubio and cap filler might make sense for both teams albeit not a home-run change for either.

IMO, Minny would be losing out in that deal because Rubio provides them something unique to their roster that Bledsoe doesn't seem capable of ever replicating

If Bledsoe could stay healthy, I'd take Bledsoe over Rubio.

I appreciate Rubio's aesthetics, but Bledsoe is a guy who just moves the needle. (or at least did for 42 games last year)

Would you take 3x70+ games and 2x50 game seasons out of Bledsoe, or 5x70+ game seasons out of Rubio? I'd have many more concerns for Bledsoe's knee going forward.

Rubio vs Bledsoe is very much a buy low vs buy high argument too.

I think I like what Rubio brings to Minny more than what Bledsoe could give them. I'd want a true distributor running my team if I had the athletes that the TWolves have.

The Bucks seem like a potentially good fit for Teodosic. If he signs for the 3/4/5 M Range.

Far less $$$ tied up then a Rubio, for just as good court vision with the added bonus that he can shoot.

He is simply not in Rubio's level defensively but the Bucks are one team with the shot blocking at C, PF & SF who could mask that.

First off, I'd like to add Teodosic. He does not have close to the court vision of Rubio, though.

A couple guys on this board told me that he signed an extension with CSKA Moscow in June (true), but they also said he doesn't have an NBA out, and Marc Stein reported that he'd leave for the NBA for a contract averaging 3m/yr. So not sure exactly where the facts are there.

There's also the issue of where a 27 year old fits on a deeply rebuilding team.

Better than Bayless

BA-ZING

Teodosic would suck here. I don't even know that he'd be better than bayless either.
