Bledsoe to the Bucks For Monroe/#1 - POLL ADDED

[Pachinko_]

Best news for me is the dude actually said he wants to play for us.

[WeekapaugGroove]

Solid trade. As a fan of both teams if the suns were going to take an expiring and a 1st for Bledsoe I'm happy it was to the bucks.

Hope his knees hold up. Its going to be very interesting next summer when the bucks are trying to fit in parkers extension plus will be getting pressure from kluch sports to extend Bledsoe. Hope that doesn't get ugly, rich paul isnt the funnest to deal with.

Tell me how bad you feel for Monroe when he signs with the Warriors next year on a vet's minimum. The big guy will be fine.

That passing with that team???

Dang.

[King4Day]

There's no way Bledsoe's "right meniscus" was "removed altogether". That makes no sense.

Yea he never had his meniscus removed. It was repaired each time.

I can't see how we don't move Jabari now. We'd have to shed some MAJOR salary to keep him at this point.

wrong

you can sign him to whatever....but you'll have to pay the luxury tax in 2018 until the team gets back under the tax line...which might be as early as 2019 and Bledsoe/Telly coming off the books....as well as Middleton possibly opting out

for billionaire owners, that shouldn't be too hard to swallow

I feel you, but as Bucks fans we have to get over this mindset. It's been part of our problem, from ownership on down. We're not a Ma & Pa organization, we're an NBA franchise & we need to act like that.

[LUKE23]

Wondering if we take Brogdon or Snell out of the starting five.

The fact that Jabari wasn't in the trade either means Bucks will sign him or that suns didn't want him.

If you’re smart, Snell.

If you’re Jason Kidd...

(feel free to move to Trade thread)

tried to find bad teams and teams with Cs getting little playing time.
someone work their magic on the nba trade machine and get us a C

i like all the bigs from the Kings. Giles is injured tho and Skal is more a PF than a C
Dewayne Dedmon, Hawks
Tyler Zeller and Jarrett Allen, Nets
Nuggets have an excess of PFs, that can do a few mins at C.
Kyle O'Quinn and Willy Hernangomez, Knicks

Vaughn, Wilson, player X, future 2nd....does that get us anything?
i know some of us would move Thon.
Delly, Telly, Terry, Sterling dont really have much value.

I would try to hit up OKC for Dakari Johnson.... or the Hawks for Alpha Kaba

Yea he never had his meniscus removed. It was repaired each time.

Thats not exactly right. His first season with the suns he had at least part of his meniscus removed when he hurt the same one for the second time. Thats why he was able to come back in like 6 weeks. The repair surgury is a 6 month recovery. Now how much was removed depends on where the tear was and thats never been disclosed publicly.

Guys get all their meniscus removed and still have long careers. Its not a death sentence. Wade had his removed in college. Now it does usually lead to arthritis at some point because the meniscus is basically a cushion in your knee.

personally, i hope it's between Brogdon or Middleton going to the second unit.

Snell pairs MUCH better as a catch and shoot player with Giannis and Bledsoe drawing double teams and attention....whereas Middleton likes to try and create his own shot.

IF Middleton can stop playing with the ball, then he should be in the starting lineup with Bledsoe/Snell/Midds/Giannis/Thon

[Pachinko_]

I hope we still start Brogdon.

Bledsoe/Delly
Brogdon/ Snell/Brown
Khris/Snell/Brown
Giannis/Khris
Thon/Henson/Giannis

That should be about 30 mins for everyone not named Brown.

can't wait for Jabari to come back so the Bucks can play with a lineup of:

Bledsoe
Snell
Middleton
Jabari
Giannis

it makes me rock hard just thinking about that lineup

Take Thon out of the rotation and you're onto something

[TroyD92]

I can't see how we don't move Jabari now. We'd have to shed some MAJOR salary to keep him at this point.

Henson keeps playing like he has and we can dump him pretty easily, ditto for Telly. Delly is clearly a negative value however.

Hold it. Are you questioning something written by Sean Devaney, author of "Win Like Lin: Finding Your Inner Linsanity on the Way to Breakout Success"?

That's Linsane.

Or pay the tax. But yeah combining Jabari and say Telly to get an upgrade around the trade deadline and lose salary to a team under the cap.

Something like Rolo? (ducks)
