He's really not and he would have been MUCH better than Jones on LMA and more importantly, he could have competently defended Robin Lopez allowing Dwight and Asik to stay on LMA permanently.
We better not pay Bledsoe the money we wouldn't pay chandler. Bledsoe is not the 3rd best player on a championship team period.
What are Bledsoe's numbers like when it comes to assisted vs unassisted 2pts and 3pters? Carl Herrera posted Dragic's yesterday but i'm not sure where he got it from. I don't see the info on basketball reference. The point he was making was that Dragic's points were much more "self made" than Parsons were.
I couldn't see Bledsoe a Morey want or need. Unless a team friendly contract and what he wants is not team friendly.
Eric Bledsoe is being incredibly underrated. He's a better playerthen Damian Lillard without question for instance.
Bledsoe is a free agent. Harden wasn't, therefore the Rockets had his bird rights and could extend him the designated player max.
Why don't you like Bledsoe? He'd be fantastic here. Lockdown PG defender, athletic, quick, good in P&R and penetration, 36% from 3, 58% TS, decent and improving playmaker. We'd be lucky to get him.
If we sign and trade for Bledsoe that's it. We're locked in. Morey didn't even want to do that for Parsons, he's definitely not going to go this route for Bledsoe.
No, we could only get him in a S&T for a long term deal. Suns would match the max that we could offer him (around $11.5MM per year).
