We wipe Frye's deal off the books at the end of the year. We take on Noah which sucks but figure we can get a pick back from the Knicks and/or Cleveland. We'll be able to move Chandler or get Noah back on the court and work up his value at some point. Cleveland picks up Bledsoe, an LBJ buddy, and moves Kyrie to the 2 to add more speed, scoring and ball handling into the lineup. Melo is Melo. NY gets KLove and can give it a go with Brandon Knight, who can potentially become a low risk high reward player for them. And yes, you also have the return of JR Smith.
This is an AWFUL trade for the Suns. You're tremendously underrating Bledsoe. If Ricky Rubio brings back a 1st, Bledsoe is better and ca bring back ATLEAST that and more. You guys act like Knight's this giant cancer. He really hasnt been a bad teammate at all. You don't trade him for an equally bad contract like Noah while attaching an asset like Bled . That mkes zero sense.
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

We give up Bledsoe to move Knight and get back basically nothing? That's horrible. Noah's deal alone is worse than Knights. It would be WAY better to just release Knight and take the cap hit.

How about this. Bledsoe, Chandler, and a pick for Kyrie and a bad contract. Cleveland is going to have to take a risk here to try to get better. As good as Kyrie is, they need two way players. Bledsoe and Chandler add D and rebounding (wink, wink).
