We'd look pretty silly getting Booker right after signing THJR to a 71 million dollar contract. Lol.

So, this makes sense (with the huge caveat any of it is true), in that Bledsoe played for Jeff when he coached in Phoenix, Jeff seemed to like the "guard" backcourt, where the line is blurred between PG and SG (which it should be) and kind of a fit for Frank N, where both can be out there at once or in any combination with THJr or CLee - assuming they want THJr to be at the 3, at least some of the time.

But now it's asking Phoenix to give up the better guard, instead of Knight (please God, no) so that would seem to be now they are looking for assets from somebody. Meaning "Hey, we'd take on some guys, get a little something for Knight, who we sort of want to dump, but for Bledsoe, someone has to pony up". Which I'd think would be the Knicks, in terms of offering something more - what that is, considering the lack of tradable assets, I don't know.

Courtney Lee for Bledsoe, I don't know what to make of that. Suddenly, Phoenix would be thin at PG, with Knight, followed by Price and Ulis. I guess they are a little thin at backup SG. After Booker, there is Barbosa (a combo guard) and that's it.

Possible partners, I guess. Would be sacrificing depth at one position for some at another.

Why do we want Bledsoe?

Thought the goal was 25 and under players!!! Bledsoe will ruin the tank.

We better not be giving up any assets at all. Melo is still by far the best player being moved. Maybe any 1st attached is routed to Phoenix along with Anderson for Bledsoe?

Don't want Bledsoe if it means giving up assets. Why do I have a feeling Mills has no idea what he's doing and he's thinking that he might as well go all the way now that he started this whole process..

ULIS ULIS ULIS ULIS ULIS PLEASE

We'd have a 3 guard rotation set for the next 5-10 years. Ulis is a starting PG in this league, and would be a fantastic 6th man once Frank develops. Anybody that was not watching him the last 2 months missed out. Dude is a pure PG, plays very good defense, and is a real player in this league.

Which is most likely why PHX is okay with moving Bledsoe.

I'd take on a bad contract if it meant getting Ulis.
