Bucks looking at Bledsoe, probably.

"He reminds me of Scottie Pippen, kind of a Magic guy, who can find the open guy. Very comfortable with the ball in his hands in the open court"

Giannis being viewed as a point forward and maybe even a straight up PG could be impacting what we're looking for long term at the 1.

Final product with parts taken from Prince, Marion, and Pippen I think.

Smart scored 15 points a game shooting under 30%, he was pretty bad. Might have to put the "I <3 Haters" agenda on delay.

I heard Exum was just OK and played a lot with Burke as a non ball handler.

Any news on Bledsoe? No? Okay.

I am kinda surprised that nothing seems to be happening at all so far with Bledsoe, be it with the Bucks, Suns, or any other teams.

I'd assume the Suns are simply just sitting back and waiting to see if any team makes an offer, but i don't recall reading anything about another team getting ready to make a serious offer for him.

No news is good news for us - hopefully no one else is bothering to submit an offer thinking Suns will match - so we have no competition - ALSO silence about the Bucks requires no denials - suggests to me someone in Bucks is slick taking time and watching Suns make a few moves like Thomas; BEsides Dragic and Bledsoe and drafted Enis and now Thomas suns also have Green who scored very well for them last year when Bledsoe was out.

Probably just wishful thinking but I feel and offer comming

I hope they are looking to move him to free space to make an offer to Bledsoe. Now that Bron & Melo have signed, I imagine the fair market value of cap space has dropped dramatically. Ersan and a 2nd for a TPE or something like that.

People forget most of Henson's minutes last year were at the 5 as Sanders was out so long. The Plus to that is Henson got experience as a pro 5 and can be an effective back up 5. But never a starting Center. His position is PF. With Parker's ability to slide to SF to break Giannis Bucks have 3 man F rotation (Middleton at SG)

2 line up scenarios

Giannis as Point Forward

5 Sanders / Henson
4 Parker / Henson
3 Giannis / Parker
2 Middleton / Knight
1 Wolters / Knight

OR

Giannis at Point Guard
S Sanders / Henson
4 Parker / Henson
3 Middleton / Parker
2 Knight / Middleton
1 Giannis / Wolters

There is literally nothing power forward about Henson's game. You'll laugh at yourself about this eventually.

Baddy Chuck · Post #2331 » by **Baddy Chuck** » Tue Jul 15, 2014 1:27 am

Henson should be permanently planted within 5 feet of the basket on either end of the floor, I'm not sure there's a power forward in the league that plays like that.

I find it extremely humorous that Jason Kidd thinks he's putting one over on people by always mentioning how important Ersan is for the team, in order to boost his trade value.

But yeah, hopefully we can move him out for cap room. If he went to either the Rockets or Wizards for their TPE we have potentially $20 milion in cap space to play with. Bledsoe here we come then.

He could play next to a C who shot threes and defended PF. :-?

You guys protest too much. You know you love looking at all these threads right now. 8-)

Besides, just don't click on it until DB edits the title when the offer sheet is signed.

Is JJ Hickson still masquerading as a power forward? I guess Henson could be him at power forward, with some shot blocking.

I don't even know where automatic double double Hickson is playing anymore. I'm going to guess Denver.

You really think that's the case? I am very skeptical. I think Kidd likes him and is passive aggressively making that very clear to the organization. Hammond wants to move him and has been talking to teams. That's my theory, anyway.
