How does everyone here feel about getting Millsap since we're going to be meeting with both him and Blake. I'm kind of undecided it really depends on the contract. Obviously, this would be in the scenario where Blake has already signed with a team.

Especially if it's a sign and trade with chandler.

And I could see Alex getting an offer around the mid level exemption. That would perfectly complete his averageness :D

Pick a random page in this thread and you will see endless debate on it.

I would say most are against Milsap and a couple people like the idea. Kind of depends on the years and money.

Funny thing is that's better than most of our team..of guys who played significant minutes, the only ones with higher PERs are Bledsoe, Warren and Chandler.

Williams also had 2nd highest behind Bledsoe but he played less than half the minutes of most of the guys.

The Millsap talk lost a lot of steam once the Blake rumor surfaced though lol but with Blake being who he is, our chances of landing someone like Millsap over him would be more probable. We got shined on once with JJ in the draft hopefully again with Blake :pray:

Not only do we sign Blake, but we also end up with Jordan.

Something like Warren/Barbosa/Len S&T/Knight/Miami 1st for Jordan/Crawford



I dont think you can sign and trade a player in a package with others right?

Milsap and Griffin front court would be mismatch with most teams though...

I'd make it super easy and just give them Knight/Chandler and Miami 1st, plus an additional 1st with heavy protection on it. They probably won't bite, but it sheds 4mil for us to sign Blake.

One thing that could help the Suns or any outside team chasing Blake is the contract that makes the most sense for him would be a 3+1 with a player option for the 4th year. That would allow him to opt out after that 3rd season at which time he would have 10 years of NBA service and be eligible for the larger max extension. That definitely takes some of the advantage the Clips have giving that 5th year. Now the clips can offer a no trade clause (but I bet they don't want to) and that could really help close that deal for them.

Interesting that Hayward might look at a "mystery team." Us?

S&T for Blake and then max Hayward. Keep Bledsoe/Booker/Jackson/Chriss/Bender.

We steal Danny's number one draft target and his top 2 free agent targets. LOL. #BostonOWNED #McDominate #TheSTUDENThasBECOMEtheTEACHER

Bledsoe/Ulis
Booker
Hayward/Jackson
Blake/Chriss
Tyson/Bender

That is correct. But with us receiving two players in return, it can be made into 2 separate trades. So pretty much it would be:

Warren/Barbosa/Knight/Miami 1st for Jordan

and then.....

S&T Len for Crawford

I know it doesnt change much but I just really want GS to finally not have something go their way. I could see Iggy bodying up Durant or shutting down Curry in the WCF.

Well I doubt they'd trade him to us, but if they do, they certainly won't do it before Blake makes a decision, as he is probably the biggest selling point for Blake to re-sign with the Clippers.

No question about that!


I honestly don't understand. Not even a late lottery pick.

I wonder how much is Bledsoe worth. Looking at this trade not much.

Everyone is happy


I'm pissed


Just to be clear

27 year old pg who has never made an all star game

1st round draft pick who was the 2nd best draft pick that year ( Chriss is better) IMO

And a scoring SF who plays no defense, when we just drafted a SF if the future. So a 6th man

For
A 25 year old 4 time all star....

NO BRAINER

Put Bledsoe in west on Cleveland with LeBron and he will be All-Star every year.

Looks like our forum is slightly higher on signing Blake than Burns and Gambo's twitter voters...

Would love a Kawhi and Iggy wingmen lineup.
