 The Suns GM said bledsoe played his final game in phx. Where does he end up. The guy can ball and would be an upgrade for many teams. The return won’t be much but where does he go and what do they get? I think the clippers would be a good spot for him don’t know what they give up but he can play the 1 or the 2 and they got some interesting pieces there.

 Not saying I’d necessarily do it, but according to Tim Montemayer of Monty and Crespin on the Fan, the Bucks are offering a protected pick, Thon Maker, and Greg Monroe for Bledsoe. Who knows how accurate this is though and who is source is.

Moose isn’t a future player for the Bucks so I don’t mind that, but giving up Thon and a future pick would sting, especially if Bledsoe continues to get injured. However, when healthy he, Brogdon and Delly would make a great stable at the point guard spot, plus each of them can play the 2 as well.

If Bucks & Suns make this trade what is the Bucks line-up when everyone healthy??

I see:
C. Antetokoumpo
PF. Parker
SF. Middleton
SG. Brogden
PG. Bledsoe

I just don’t see what line-up they run, but if they try this good luck to any C in stopping Giannis from scoring on you big time. I assume until Parker healthy it’d be Henson at the 5 and Giannis at the 4 or at least guarding the 4-spot more likely.

 If they do this they need to get Bledsoe ‘s buddy Boogie too. They could try with a package built around Parker and unprotected picks

 Denver, LA Clippers, New York, New Orleans, and Orlando seem to be the most likely candidates to me. Not sure if anyone will offer much, there are already reports saying the Knicks won’t deal Frank Nilikina or Willy Hermangomez for him. It will be interesting to see where he ends up and what the Suns get in return.

The Bucks would be foolish to make that trade.

[The GoatParticipant]

Bucks will want to move Henson in any trade they make

Nugs could send a package around Mudiay or Faried or both

Clips may do something about getting rid of one Rivers to then make it easier get rid of another

NY will get him if they offer Frank Ntilikina but they won’t

As a major surprise, as Bledsoe, Wall and Boogie are all very close, my longshot is  there may be moves to get them together e.g. Wiz acquire Bledsoe then try a Beal for Boogie move or the Pels get Bledsoe and offer Davis for Wall

I like Bledsoe going to Denver, but I don’t see Phoenix really wanting Faried in this deal. The Suns already have a surplus of young bigs (Chriss, Bender, Len) and Faried will demand minutes over them. Plus he’s got 2 years on his contract (Phoenix would probably rather having an expiring contract like Monroe). 

The alternative is to get a third team in that wants Faried and can give Phoenix an expiring deal and maybe some young players. The team that comes to my mind would be Memphis. They’re playing really good right now but their bench is pretty young and the team lacks actual talent other than Conley and Gasol. Plus their starting PF (JaMychal Green) is injured. Memphis could give up Wright (expiring) plus 1 or 2 of their younger bench players (have a handful of them). Faried would be a great fit with the Grit and Grind team as well as a great look beside Marc who spreads the floor from the 5 spot.

Tyson Chandler would be great on the Bucks as well, and Kidd seems to like bringing in guys he won with as a player. Bledsoe/Chandler for Monroe/Henson works, and allows the Bucks to get rid of both their apparently unwanted bigs. 

Henson’s contract probably doesn’t appeal to Phoenix, but maybe the Bucks could offer picks. 

If I were the Bucks I would consider Maker untouchable as far as this deal’s concerned.

 Chandler to the Bucks – link with Kidd again from Dallas title winners would make sense but I don’t think Bucks would give up Henson, Monroe and Maker in a trade. Monroe and Maker plus protected pick for Bledsoe and Chandler I’d happily take as Phoenix fan. The salaries being sent by Phoenix would be $27 million with $20 million coming back but Phoenix are under the cap and a make weight could be sent.

If I was Bucks it would be Monroe and Henson for Bledsoe and Chandler with Bucks throwing in a pick. The salaries match nicely. Phoenix save money on Chandler’s deal next year, Henson has a fair contract too.

Chandler could mentor Maker so deal looks nice for both teams.
