Him going from a fringe contender to whatever the hell we are would be a fun punishment tho.

Well at least he didn't beat his woman half to death.
He's also shooting 50 40 90 and leading the league with 48% shooting from deep.

Of course he should feel some gratitude, imo, the team stuck by him when most would argue he didn't deserve it. I hope it's legit.
I don't see any point in trading him unless we get a haul (unlikely), we have no intention of re-signing him (also unlikely, or we would have torn the band-aid off last summer), or because we strongly believe the next trial is going to end his career (but in that case other teams probably have the same intel).

Hell if he really wants to comeback at a reasonable price then we should probably keep him. Like it or not he's going to be the best player available in FA.
My fear is someone will probably throw him close to the max because he's the top name on the market.
I'm honestly torn on Bridges. One day I want to move on, the next day I want to keep him. Tough decision.

Much easier to wanna move on from him when we still had Terry. Trading Miles now probably means we win two more games the rest of the season.
Would still absolutely drop him if he got us a decent prospect and draft picks (something better than the Terry deal).
Still strongly believe we shouldn't max him.

Watching the SVP sports center and Woj basically said we aren't trading Bridges and we will look to bring him back in FA.
Guess Bridges is part of the core moving forward.

They're probably getting offered a mediocre role player and 2nds for a guy that can make an all star team or 2. I wouldn't either.

Yeah I said if we could get a 1st I would trade him and move on. It's clear teams weren't offering much so we probably should just bring him back.
We can always trade him later down the line.
We definitely need some vet leadership though. Not comfortable with Miles/Melo making big money and neither have shown great leadership. We have to bring in a real vet leader in FA.

Negotiating trying to sign him or trade him is going to completely eat up all of the oxygen, and distract from the real need of this team which is veteran leadership, tough defenders, three point shooting, backup point guard and a healthy legitimate center.
All of the offense is nice, but this team is going nowhere until it gets some players who actually play some f****** defense.
