Removing the protection on their pick would be a good start.

We need INF here to tell us who we'd get like when he nailed the Scola/Plumlee/Green details.

Pekovic has put up decent numbers, what's the issue with him?
Don't know that we'd need LaVine with Ennis.

Are you able to do that?Superbone wrote:Oh, yeah. Also get the protection removed from the Minny first rounder.

I don't know, I think INF is pretty disgusted with how the FO has handled the whole Bledsoe fiasco.Superbone wrote:We need INF here to tell us who we'd get like when he nailed the Scola/Plumlee/Green details.

I do see a lot of young talent on that roster and if they are willing to offer EB the max I think that speaks volumes regarding what they think of him. I hope McD will bend them over a barrel.

This is a very good thing. I don't know if Bledsoe will sign it, but I would start with Gordi Dieng. I've liked him ever since his Louisville days.
This would be a very interesting and good turn of events, because Bledsoe playing here under the QO would be good for neither side.

and I have no idea why...Its not like Phoenix has turned down other teams, its the fact that nobody to this point has offered Eric an offer sheet he would sign.
If we wound up making a deal with Minny, depending on what we get, then the patience of McD would of paid off yet again.

Finally! Someone offers a max deal that we can then match.

LaVine can play 2 guard and would fit well with how the Suns want to play. As far as Pekovic, yes he has put up good numbers, but I don't think he's a good fit, he puts up numbers to the detriment of how you want a center to play, not a great defender and doesn't do what you want a center to do. But he puts up decent numbers. Just my opinion.Dan H wrote:Pekovic has put up decent numbers, what's the issue with him?

Gambo saying this isn't happening. Minnesota is offering us their bad contracts, thats all.
Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

The volumes that it speaks is that, yeah, they have worse contracts than Bledsoe on a max and would be happy to trade.iLLmatic wrote:I do see a lot of young talent on that roster and if they are willing to offer EB the max I think that speaks volumes regarding what they think of him.

A desperate attempt by Paul to get a deal for Bledsoe?
Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

I'd rather have Bledsoe on a QO than their crap contracts.

Interestingly both Eric Bledsoe and Flip Saunders are represented by "Klutch Sports" (Rich Paul and Mark Termini).
Klutch Sports is desperate to get any kind of offer for Eric Bledsoe.
Flip Saunders is looking for leverage in ongoing negotiations with Ricky Rubio.

Sources: Suns have no interest in Eric Bledsoe sign-and-trade with Minnesota
By Adrian Wojnarowski

Yahoo Sports
The Phoenix Suns have no interest in sign-and-trade discussions with the Minnesota Timberwolves involving restricted free-agent guard Eric Bledsoe, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
The Suns would want an All-Star – or potential All-Star – in return for Bledsoe and had only considered Kevin Love in a possible sign-and-trade scenario with the Timberwolves, league sources told Yahoo Sports. Minnesota eventually traded Love to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
The Timberwolves are showing a willingness to offer Bledsoe a four-year, $63 million maximum contract in a sign-and-trade, but only if they could dump undesirable contracts onto the Suns, league sources told Yahoo Sports.
