Lol and how do you know that Phoenix would be cool with a late first and late lottery pick for a all star caliber 24 year old PG? They might want another first, our second round pick, a promising young player in Jones as well for Morey to kiss there ass, if were going to beg them to s&t us Bledsoe before Parsons offer sheet deadline tomorrow.
The way I look at it, if you can get either without giving up any of last year's starters, you are a better team. Don't need to match salaries either because just Lin and Asik trades would put us far enough under cap for maxing Bledsoe.
Would be willing to give anything to the Suns to do a sign and trade for Bledsoe as long as we can keep Howard, Harden, and Jones.
Why have no teams gone after Bledsoe? He's way better than Parsons or Hayward and I think his max contract would be about the same.
Man the truth is cuban sabotaged his own team just to sabotage the rockets. Now, neither of us will win a championship for several years.
Morey's calculator told him it would be the prefect time to make Parsons a FA! How dare you question a battery powered machine! Damned calculators
PHX probably wouldn't match anything. A lot of PGs already on PHX and Sarver is notoriously cheap. I don't know why we don't make a run for Bledsoe. SnT for him now; if not, maybe hope to get him after we give up on Parsons, then SnT for Ariza (he has plenty of options so Wiz at least get something).
That's who I'd prefer, although Bledsoe does have that potential. Dragic, however, is a proven starter at the one and can step up and score, too. Not a great defender, but not awful, either. I've missed him ever since he signed with the Suns.
I know we can not offer the max any more with the Ariza signing. Does anyone think a sign and trade could happen? just troughing this out there: Harden ...for... Bledsoe, Kieff Morris, Plumlee and 2 first rounders Bledsoe / Bev Ariza / Johnson Parsons / Ariza Jones / Morris (are about = and complement each other) Howard / Plumlee (Rest Howard and Plumlee can shout FT) flame suit on
I would have liked Bledsoe or Thomas... But I think Morey really likes Beverley and it's possible he can improve offensively and he's not a high turnover guy.
We have the money for a 'should have been' All-Star PG, why the **** are we not going after him? A lineup of Bledsoe/Harden/Ariza/Jones/Howard is a championship contending lineup.
