I just happened to come across this older article on Bledsoe. It's interesting, because he really hasn't played many NBA games since the article was written. I swear I hadn't read it, which was odd, because it seems if it was posted here earlier I would have surely read it.

Anyways, you may have read it, but if not, it's a good read... http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/18601276/zach-lowe-eric-bledsoe-devin-booker-phoenix-suns-nba

I believe it was posted before. I clearly remember the Odom joke and the Wall/Bledsoe comparison

I'm getting close to giving up on him. He's just not a good floor general. I also feel like he knows his days here are numbered and is trying to put the best numbers for his next contract.

Denver still makes the most sense, LA and Milwaukee don't have enough interesting stuff, Cleveland only if you guys want Tristan might make sense, and San Antonio isnt moving Parker and his salary would be needed to make it work, I can't think of more teams that should be interested, although you never know with crazy/stupid front offices.

If Denver feels some urgency I think you can get something like Lyles, Mudiay, Arthur, and Lydon or somebody's rights, and maybe a 1st.

Maybe they'd be willing to trade Juancho instead of Lyles if you take Faried instead of Arthur for example.

I'd sit him down until he's traded.

How many times is this going to happen before McD and sarver take a long honest look at themselves and how they are doing things. Will McD ever trade anyone before they sabotage their trade value?

It's really frustating. Every year there is one or two disgruntled Suns players. When will this end?

Hopefully this doesn't turn into the Dragic fiasco and Bledsoe is open to any team.

If we can somehow turn him into two lightly protected picks I'll take it

Hate shoulda, coulda, woulda's. But damn McD, you should've moved EB in the past offseason when his trade value was probably at its peak.

If there's one flaw in McD's tenure, it's holding onto talent way too long

Could see the Bucks offering this.

At the least see us putting up one future first and then DJ Wilson and / or Vaughn.

Would make sense to trade him to the Clippers with Teodosic just getting hurt, if that's the path we take

Why do I get the feeling that there will be no movement on the Bledsoe front until his trade value is at absolute rock bottom?

I can just see us hanging on to him, he plays disgruntled or gets benched for an extended period, Rich Paul starts kicking off and a short list of teams he wants to play for and resign with gets leaked...
