Nah chill...
Unless yall would run a 2 point guard line up(Actually one of the best moves Woodson did w/ the Knicks by the way) & w/ Butler coming off the bench. But Taj has too much upside & NOah doesn't need to be the overwhelming big man anchor for yall.

To me, Taj is untouchable without K. Love being in the convo...

EDIT: Could we see a 3 team trade for Love though, Bledose & Taj to Minny, K. Love to ChiTown & Rubio & bits & pieces & picks to Phx?
No.

If hes confident about staying healthy and putting up last years numbers, take the qualifying offer and keep it moving.

i doubt hell be able to put up the same numbers but I think he can stay healthy...With Dragic, Thomas, Him, Goodwin and the other pieces Im thinking 15-16pt 4-5rb 6ast for him with good percentages.

I think after seeing some of these other contracts I'd rather test the market myself...Hes worth every bit as much as parsons and hey ward.

The Jazz and the Mavericks had different cap situations. Those contracts are blowing every negotiation in FA out of proportion. The contract the Suns offered makes sense given their current cap, so if Bledsoe wants 5 years 80 mil then I can understand why Phoenix is like :camby:. The Mavericks worked with Dirk to be able to afford Parsons at his asking price. The Jazz matched a max offer sheet because they had the space and wanted to retain Heyward.

I see where Bledsoe is coming from wanting as much paper as possible, but his situation is tied in directly with the Suns...not the Mavs and Jazz.

I don't think this is how it went I think they threw that money at Parsons when they whiffed on the other guys.

But we can't knock Bledsoe for wanting his paper someone will have cap space next summer or be willing to trade for him soon.

Breh... I'm asking a genuine question...if Bledsoe does not want to be on PHX any more and love doesn't want Minny...

Let's forget this is the coli and imagine we are having a genuine sorts convo...enlighten me please...

The Suns are the team that has the most to offer for Love but i don't think they are interested because he may not resign there...The Suns are talented top to bottom just missing a star.

Also Minny wouldn't want to fukk with Rubios elite play making ability BY bringing in another pg...:mjlol:

You're Flip Saunders.

How do you tell your fans you traded your two best players and all you got was a maxed out PG with a chronic knee problem and a borderline starter who is damn near 30? You're downgrading everywhere with no purpose.

From a business perspective nobody will go out to see Taj and Eric play basketball. Tough sell
