If I'm Phoenix I take this deal and draft the kid out of Arizona Aaron Gordon at eight. The suns have always been relevant when they had a Guard+PF combo. Dragic/Gordon could be a poor mans Nash/Amare or KJ/Sir Charles. Bledsoe is really worth 7-10 mill but some idiot team will probably give him 14-16 mill a year.

In that case there better off drafting the kid from Kentucky .....Have you read the scouting report on Gordon he's nowhere near amares level totally different players...he's a tweener whose extremely raw on offense whose a couple years away...he's more Marion than amare by far....

They can't, and they aren't going to keep them all. They have 10 under contract, and need to re-sign Tucker and Barbosa. Hopefully the Knicks can buy one.

you saying the NBA won't let em? if so then ok

but if it do happen they can maybe trade for a higher draft pick

They could, but then they'd have to trade players. I'm not sure how the cap works in that regard, but they would have too many guys for their roster.

Their GM said it's unlikely the'll keep all of 'em anyway, and Sarver has sold off more picks than anyone

But this a good look for the kings I could see Bledsoe coming in and making a immediate impact....last thing they need is more young unproven player they have enough of that and Thomas is expendable...

I was talking about Randle whose a true PF.....I like young too can't go wrong with either one tbh

I'm sorry bro i just don't see Randle doing something in the league

i would draft him prolly in the teens...i would reach for james Young though

I'd get this done if I was the Suns.

Better than giving Bledsoe the Max.He's only worth about 8-9 mill a year MAX.

Isaiah is a perfect fit for the Suns system.

Plus you get the 8th pick?:dahell: sheeeiiiiiit..They better make that deal

I don't trust Bledsoe's health at all.Shaky knees...I expect them muthafukkas to blow within the next 2 years

They could take Stuakhaus or Harris and have It be the 6th man.

But how much is IT going to sign for?
