Bucks are supposedly getting ready to offer Bledsoe a contract.

Dang. Knowing the Bucks and what they need to do to get FAs to play for their fair city, I'm guessing it'll be a max contract. Oh, well. We figured we'll most likely be forced to pay him the max.

Let's hope Bledsoe and his agent are smart enough not to accept it in the first place.

No, just one would suffice, but there's already a few above.

How's Milwaukee fixed for cap space? I'd be willing to bet they won't be able to max him.....

That would throw a wrench on our offseason big way, I hope it's just another report like that Indiana trade, just wishful talk to show the fans some pulse, some "we are active on the Free agency frenzy too"

They have enough to max him, and he fits their needs.

This is the slowest start to FA that I can remember. Not many contracts handed out so far. I think everyone is waiting for the LBJ & Melo shoe to drop.

Agreed. It's been particularly quiet on the Suns' front. There's been a whole lot of speculation and white noise, but the only bits of news have been Sarver meeting Lebron's agent and Hawes visiting before signing with the Clippers. So nothing much at all.

there's a saying: be careful what you ask for.

the "danger" with bleds agreeing to the contract is that phoenix might not match, and he'll be stuck and miserable in wisconsin. tyler ennis is waiting in the wings.

Sounds like the Suns are in preliminary contract talks with Bledsoe and his agent, so this will not screw up plan A's timeline.
