I think we should have a crack at him ASAP. Even as an expiring.

What do we do?

Jabari, Thon, Wilson enough? Midds as well?

Good news in talking to several Suns fans - they say the knee problems haven't cost him a step - though he's not the defender he was earlier in his career. They think it's more effort than ability.

Snell is having an incredible start to the season. He's so fun to watch right now. I wish we had other automatic three point shooters to surround Giannis with.

Horst is my new GAAAAWWWWWWWDDDDD.
Could be another Jay Humphries type fleecing of the Suns if the meniscusless knee holds up. Bledsoe is no Brandon Knight.
Hate giving up picks but at this point it's all about having a contender 3 years from now or Giannis is gone.

Any chance Monroe gets bought out and comes back later?

I'd be surprised if we ever see that lineup this year.

This defense only works if you have a Giannis at every position.

Every game I watch, I can't believe how good Giannis is.

Bledsoe would have been handy against the Cavs

We have no one outside of Giannis who can get to the line so I think adding Bledsoe will be a huge positive for us.

Didn’t some thing he had an attitude issue? I feel like from everything I’ve seen from him has been class act. Super excited to have him on the team.

Woj said they're going to try and trade Monroe first, then talk about a buyout if unsuccessful. So it sounds like it's possible, but unlikely.

After watching tonight's game, I'm willing to bet Bledsoe won't help this team that much. The offense, as ugly as it looks sometimes, isn't that bad, and I think Bledsoe is only going to marginally improve it with the offense that is run. The defense though is completely broken and there's no way Bledsoe is going to be able to fix it, as good as he can potentially be defensively.

give us Bledsoe just for dellys minutes we win tonight. the idea he wont help us when we have a 2nd year pg starting and probably out of position..... and the worst backup pg in the league it doesn't even make sense to say he wont help us.

to be good we need to fix the defense 100%... but even if we don't we get better with Bledsoe. my greatest worry is that we improve enough to save kids job but not enough to live up to expectations. that is 100% my worst concern right now.

Middleton can create his own shot and create for others. Snell can't.
