Re: The One And Only Offseason Thread 2
Suns- Llyasova, knight, Antetokounmpo
Milwaukee- Bledsoe , green
Milwaukee get the best player In the deal, and can make a VERRY offensive backcourt with bledsoe and mayo.
Suns get a stretch 4. Another good young PG to replace bledsoe. And then a young player who is 19 and could grow I to one of the most versatile players in nba. Started in the nba at 6'9 7'4 wingspan and already is 6'10.5 and doctors say he will be 7 foot. Players with his ability and his length are great assets.

Re: The One And Only Offseason Thread 2
That guy looks a little small to be Deng doesnt it? If it was Bledsoe I could see them telling Bledsoe to take the one year deal and jump ship to the Heat next summer.

I know Kerrsed loves Henson. I know Suns fan are so busy riding Goran's jock they'd rather sell Bledsoe to the highest bidder. How about S&T Bledsoe for Henson, and Plumlee for Ilyasova? Given that Henson's shown his ass, I'd like a first round pick back, personally.
You have me confused. Im not in love with Henson, im in love with Terrence Williams. As far as Bucks players go, i have been advocating for Sanders for years (until MIL overpaid him). Now i would still love to get him in a Suns uniform, but much lesser now that his paycheck has increased.
I still think that his rebounding and defense could help us out alot, and he is still a youngster and will improve even more with time and guidance.
People will call me crazy (yes, i know they already do), but i would love to put out a line-up of:
Bledsoe/Green/Jsmooth/Love/Sanders
Every other spot is held down by a defender (Bledsoe/Smith/Sanders) and Green/Love can score buckets.
Defense wins championships, and you need a team with more defenders than offensive players.
You'll have to play Jsmooth at the 4 and Love at the 3 on offense and switch them around on defense.

Any idea how the salary cap works? At all?

Re: The One And Only Offseason Thread 2
I want Kevin Love but only if we can keep Dragic.
Remember earlier this year when someone posted stats about how ridiculously good Dragic was with Frye on the court? Dragic and an even better stretch 4 in Kevin Love would be deadly.
Bledsoe on the other hand played better with Plumlee (a guy who needs to be close to the basket).
My ultimate REALISTIC lineup (that I think could compete for a championship)
Bledsoe
Dragic
-(small forward with 3 point range and high defensive ability)
Love
-(true center who can rebound, protect the rim, and finish high percentage shots)
Bench
I. Thomas
Green
Markieff
Archie
For now Tucker can still be our starting 3, but I'd hope TJ Warren can replace him. If not, the small forward position is the eaisest position to fill.
I'm not sure Plumlee or Len can develop into the center we need. I envision an Ibaka or Hibbert. A tough son of a bitch who can box out, rebound and put guys on their ass.
It's a shame we couldn't have gotten Kevin Love THIS year in free agency and packaged Len or Plumlee or a few picks for a bruiser.

Looks like lance Stephenson to me.
Bledsoe has a small face and chin.

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.
Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

Your last point is true, and that is a plausible comparison.
... As far as I see it, there are three ways to trade for Love. A Bledsoe-centered deal, a Dragic-centered deal, and a youth-centered deal.
I vote for Option 4:
Screw Love and dont trade for him at all.

Re: The One And Only Offseason Thread 2
If for some reason we don't play to potential this year and come Feb. we're a good 10 games out of the playoffs. Do we sell on Dragic or the Morrii and get assets?

Depends on how they play. You have to consider their value at that point in time. If Dragic is giving you 20/7 in Feb, you could potentially flip him and the Morri for a star. If we're 10 games out and they all regressed, then we keep them and resign them for cheap on the offseason.

Only if we knew Love would commit. But I think Bledsoe and the twins would be better, because Dragic is the one that thrives more with the stretch 4 and isn't as injury prone. Though Minnesota might prefer Dragic. Then again they might not because Dragic could leave them the following summer.

Re: The One And Only Offseason Thread 2
Its hilarious watching those Heat fans lose their loads over a grainy picture.
Oh and if Dragic is averaging 20/7 by February, he is a star.

Re: The One And Only Offseason Thread 2
Any thoughts on a three-way with Minny and Rox?
PHX sends Bledsoe, Morri, PHX 2015 pick
PHX receives: Harden, Jones
PHX grabs the only "hometown hero" we have by giving up some depth and future. Jones is a good pickup who has shown some great flashes. PHX still has room for another Max player after this move.
Rox send Harden, Jones, Monti, Beverly, rights to Capela, Pels 2015 pick, HOU 2015
Rox receive: Bledsoe (Max S&T), Love, Martin
Rox go for it with a lineup of Bledsoe/ Martin/ Ariza/ Love/ Howard...nuf said. Best starting 5 in the NBA?
Minny sends: Love, Martin
Minny receives: Morris, Morris, Beverly, Monti, rights to Capela, Phx 2015 pick, Pels 2015 pick, Hou 2015 pick
Minny trades out Love's superstardom and Martins 3 year contract for pieces that will provide some strength for the current team while making out like bandits with picks. No big star coming back for Minny, but the load of picks and talent should make up for it. Minny still has room for another max player after this move.
