Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

https://twitter.com/Gambo987/status/508039738616320002 Since everything should be about building long term, I would have to consider using him as the third guard. The first option is to re-sign him, but if he doesn't want to be here I'd look to move him for comparable assets, if you don't re-sign h...

Re: Al McCoy Appreciation Thread

Al is on a very short lost of broadcasters who are synonymous with their team's public face. You just can't think about the Suns without getting around to Al if you've spent any extended period of time living here because he's been doing their games since 1972!

Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

The first thing everyone needs to understand is that a lot of the reports that make it to the basketball news sites are complete bullshit. Remember how Milwaukee was going to make Bledsoe an offer? Or how he was supposedly in Miami and was going to get an offer from them? They were just examples lik...

Re: Around the League: August 2014

Those max offers don't mean much unless it comes from one of the teams with the cap space to pay it (the Sixers and Suns). If it's from a team that can't work out a sign-and-trade the offer doesn't do anything other than set a price for Monroe that no team with the means to is willing to pay.

Re: Around the League: August 2014

There is such an effort by the media to create news an sensationalize what little news and rumors there are. Indiana wants Dragic? Who cares? What are they going to trade for him? Same with Houston or Dallas wanting Bledsoe. And half the articles on the Isaiah Thomas signing don't seem to understand...

Re: Around the League: August 2014

David Thorpe thinks that the Mavs could be real contenders if they found a way to somehow add Bledsoe, even though he doesn't know they could do that. And the Suns would be real contenders if they could add Joakim Noah or LaMarcus Aldridge or Kevin Love right now. Of course that ain't happening eit...

Re: Around the League: August 2014

Did you catch Mason Plumlee making the USA team over Demarcus Cousins? I think you have actually been lucky to miss the Love-Cousins frontcourt. Your team was perimeter oriented anyway, the remaining pieces are still potent in the paint and you don't have to worry about post defense and rim protect...

Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

I kind of wish the Suns would just say to Eric, "This is our final offer. 4/48. You have 48 hours to accept or reject. If you don't take it, we won't make you any other offers and you'll have to play out the QO." I'm sure he'd blink. There's not really any reason to have to have him signe...

Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

If push came to shove, Bledsoe could get an offer sheet from another team and force the Suns to match. Well, maybe not $11M at this point, but a lot more than the QO, and with other player-favoring terms, such as a PO for a second year. Playing hardball would provoke a hardball response and save th...
