Mudiay actually looking pretty good this year. Had 15/7/5 tonight against the warriors.

I'm warming to the idea of him. It just takes PGs longer to "get it" in this league.

Ya me too. I'm willing to give him a chance. I'd do Mudiay/Arthur/protected 1st for Bled

As Mudiay continues to play better, I'm sure Denver is reconsidering.

I think I can live without that for a while yet.
Knowing the Suns track record, that just might happen. ;)

Would much rather have Elfrid Payton from ORL than Mudiay.

Don’t know if I could handle looking at that hair.

Bledsoe is so much better.

It really is unprofessional to try to force your way out like this.

Him and Isaac are a natural fit, would be a shame to separate them.

No thanks on him as well. PG's who can't shoot a 3 or FT's are not high on my list unless they do other things at a very high level. Mudiay and Payton are just run of the mill disappointments for me. Would've fit well in the Earl era.

As the post above notes, Mudiay has been shooting much better this year. I'm not a huge fan, he's still a Bledsoe style PG, but he's big and athletic and has some playmaking potential. I feel better about having that style PG now that Booker is establishing himself as our lead guard. If we acquire him, he'd already know his place and wouldn't be able to dominate the ball or he'd get pulled.

I'm not super thrilled about him, but he better than nothing. And much better than the crap Milwaukee is offering. If we can get Brogdon or Ntilikina, by all means, take that. But it doesn't appear those offers are coming.

What about Dinwiddie from Brooklyn?

I was impressed with his play in their game against us. Also, the Nets fans really like him and were yelling to put him back in the game.

He's interesting. Kinda similar to Brogdon. Honestly I don't know a ton about him, but he's playing well this year and shooting well from deep. How is he as a defender?

My other question is whether Brooklyn would be interested in Bledsoe. Bledsoe could play next to Russell. But I think Brooklyn is happy with Russell at PG and happy letting him grow in that role. I don't think adding Bledsoe is what they are looking for.

BK would have no interest in Bledsoe.

Unless he doesn't commit to resigning this offseason, I think passing on Cousins is insane.

I have no way of knowing this, but I also think we could've had a better deal for Sacramento had they not refused to trade him within the division.
Boogie and Bledsoe are best buddies. You don't replace a tumor with a cancer if you're concerned with chemistry. That would be a nightmare situation.

Cousins should be considered an MVP candidate so far. I'm not in the camp that thinks he's a "cancer", either. He has a temper, but he's not actively destroying his teams from within.
I'm a big cousins fan. I just think we missed our opportunity. At the beginning of the year I was all for making a run at cousins at the trade deadline or free agency, but I don't think he'll commit to us with Bledsoe gone.
I don't want to break the bank for a big guy who has never won 35 games in a season. His playoff drought is as long as the Sun's. 7 years, and he hasn't been close to .500.

So, if he played 40min per, which nobody does, he'd be akin to our very own Eric Bledsoe(who everyone hates)... Mudiay is also shooting 40% overall, I'm supposed to think he's improved his shooting based on 24 3pt attempts 10 games into a season? Yeah, no. Pass, he stinks. I might actually check out on the season if we trade for this bum.

You guys complain about Bledsoe and Knight, and some want this clown? Unbelievable to me.

Latest update I've seen. As for the trade scenarios , I still can't see myself changing my stance on Mudiay or Drummond even if he's actually hitting FTs so far this year
