Regarding Dragic vs. Bledsoe, I think that I'd rather have Dragic because of his commitment to the organization. That being said, sign/trade Bledsoe or keep him. No point in letting him walk.

If a team is making noises about signing him to a max contract, call their bluff and say that we'll match regardless but that we'd look at reasonable S&Ts.

Soon as you say that you'll consider S&Ts, teams know you wouldn't match a max deal because you generally don't trade players worth the max.

Our bigs aren't really good enough for that to be a significant factor in evaluating Bledsoe's place with this team, IMO.

For the Suns to go anywhere, they're gonna have to be. Say we pursue Monroe, Bledsoes drive and dumps would help him tremendously, same goes for Len and Plumlee as they develop. To me it just seems you don't like his fit regardless.

It's not that I don't like his fit; it's just that I don't love it nor do I feel he's needed. And I don't see him throwing lobs to Plumlee being cause for saying, "man, we gotta have this guy."
