Rough night for Rush Hour. 4-11 FG, -18.

Love, Hurts.

I wish we had played this shitty for the whole year so at least we'd get compensated for it, instead of dying out at the last half of the year.

It's been that for months. Because he scores in "traffic."
Go Suns!

TJ Warren and Alex Len are the most exciting things about this team going forward.

That's a pathetic place to be as a franchise.

I am SO DONE with Bledsoe. He can't even make a simple three on one bounce pass to one of his players on the wing. He attempts to make passes to guys wide open in the corner for three and his passes are so off target that they go sailing out of bounds. He's so non nonchalant that he can't even grab a rebound under the hoop after the Pelicans are already downcourt without knocking it out of bounds. He is dead to me.

I really want Bledsoe gone this offseason. I know the Morrii are public enemies #1-2 around here, but I think we could tolerate their presence if we had a competent PG running our team. Bledsoe is the wrong horse.

I agree. I happen to think Knight is the right horse.

I was looking yesterday at the teams that could use a new PG - BKN, DAL, HOU, IND, NYK, SAC, UTA. Of those, BKN and DAL have nothing to offer. HOU, IND and NYK have basically only picks to offer, though Houston could send us one of their young bigs - Motiejunas, Jones, Capela - the first two of which would probably require us to show the twins the door. IND's pick isn't good enough, though maybe we could squeeze a Dragic-type package from them. That leaves NYK, SAC and UTA.

SAC and UTA, I think, would prefer Knight due to his shooting and playmaking ability. NYK I could see going either way. NYK has only their pick to offer, so a deal is either there or it isn't. With SAC and UTA, things are a bit more interesting. Think SAC would be willing to part with a pick and Stauskas for either Bled or Knight? I think they would, but I wouldn't be interested unless we could then move that pick (I've mentioned, I think this draft blows), or we really valued a player available at 8. With UTA, we'd have to get back Exum, Burks, or Burke. If his last name begins with a B, we also get at least their pick - and even then, I think we lose on the deal.

I think dealing Bled is a real possibility because I think we prefer Knight and Brandon may not want to share PG duties. But it's unclear what kind of market exists for Eric. I hope we get the chance to find out.

I think our best shot at dealing Bledsoe is if the Knicks get UNlucky in the lottery and don't get the #1, #2 pick. Then maybe they'd be willing to trade, say, the #5-6 pick for Bledsoe. Maybe we could get a young piece with it like Hardaway Jr.

Hardaway is trash. We have two better young 2's in Archie and Bogdan. Pass.

Oh, yeah. I also meant to mention that Bullock has been a total bust in his limited minutes with us. I hope Bullock and Thornton on moving on.

Yeah, Thornton has to go. It really annoys me when mediocre or lesser players wear 23. LeBron James and Anthony Davis are the only guys wearing Michael's number who deserve the privilege.
