    Reports are that he has been offered 4 years $48 million, but he wants 5 years $80 million.

    So they may not be willing to match any offer for his services and I think other teams may start to get interested.

    So as we know Milwakuee are interested and I really think it would be a great landing spot for him, however I am just wonder what other teams may throw their hat into the ring.

    Again the thing I see Phoenix lacking is a C. Miles Plumlee is good however I think he would be perfect as an energy guy off the bench, so maybe a S & T involving Larry Sanders or John Henson with the Bucks in order to salvage something rather than just letting him walk away. Maybe look for Lopez from Brooklyn, S & T with Pistons for Monroe, Hibbert from Indiana or Pekovic from Minny (If Love trade happens).

    Do you see any team out there making a legit play for him?

     If the Pistons could dump Smith and/or Jennings, Bledsoe would be great on that team.

      Stop teasing me. A team of Bledsoe, KCP, Butler, Monroe, Drummond would be enough to get any Piston fan excited.

      Argh Joe Dumars….

    Phoenix Gives: Eric Bledsoe, Alex Len

    Phoenix Receives: Greg Monroe

    Detroit Gives: Greg Monroe, Brandon Jennings

    Detroit Receives: Eric Bledsoe, Jason Terry, Chris Copeland

    Sacramento Gives: Jason Thompson, Jason Terry

    Sacramento Receives: Roy Hibbert

    Indiana Gives: Roy Hibbert, Chris Copeland

    Indiana Receives: Brandon Jennings, Jason Thompson, Alex Len

    Phoenix: PG.Dragic SG.Green SF.Tucker PF.Morris C.Monroe The Suns get a legit C who is young and can grow with the roster and with a year or two seasoning can be legit threats in the West. The floor would be nice and spaced for him to do work in the paint and he is a great passer so he will set people up out of the post.

    Detroit: PG.Bledsoe SG.KCP/Meeks SF.Singler/Copeland PF.Smith C.Drummond The Pistons get another dynamic defensive player to go with Smith and Drummond, now this team would be athletic and they still have some shooters to stretch the floor and another addition being that of Jason Terry as back-up PG.

    Scaramento: PG.Collison SG.Stauskas/McLemore SF.Gay PF.Cousins C.Hibbert The Kings get an interior defender to patrol the paint to join Cousins, who can focus on what he does best in scoring the ball. I feel he is a great compliment to this team.

    Indiana: PG.Jennings SG.Miles/Stuckey SF.George PF.West C.Thompson The Pacers get a dynamic playmaker and scorer, who I think would benefit from entering a stable environment that is set up in Indiana. Thompson is 6’11 under utilised player I think he could be a servicable C while the Pacers could be patient on Len who could be a great athletic C for Indiana down the line. Losing Hibbert is big, but Indiana free up cap space to add some depth or wait for 2015.

      I like the basic idea of Greg Monroe for Eric Bledsoe. The Suns may not be able to run as much, but they get a true center who makes good decisions offensively. The Pistons form a young athletic duo with Drummond and Bledsoe. 

      If I’m the Suns, I would pay the max for Monroe, and if I’m the Pistons, I would pay the max for Bledsoe. 

      The Pistons would still need to make another move or two, but that is two really good building blocks for your team.

        I 100% agree that a straight swap would work, I kinda went on the premise that Detroit would want to move Jennings if they got Bledsoe and that SVG would want shooters so figured to see if there was a way to get all of that, not too mention I throw Indiana in there haha.

          Your concept is solid. Four team trades are just so rare and hard to get balanced. Jennings is a better creator than Hill, but Hill is a better outside shooter and defender. The Kings part of the trade might actually happen, but they probably have to give up at least one first round pick too. 

          I actually think the Pistons could run Jennings and Bledsoe together for parts of the game, much like the Suns did with Dragic and Bledsoe.

            They could run together in spurts. 

            You’re right the four team trades are rare, I think the last one involved Houston, Indiana, New Jersey and New Orleans and revolved around lee, Murphy, Collison and Ariza. back in 2010 when I thought had just acquired their franchise PG, whoops.

     Whether people agree with this 4 team trade or not I think festr35 deserves props for how he layed out the trades, makes it SO much easier to follow multi team trades when you follow this format (team X gives, team X receives, etc)

    This free agency season has been mind blowing. What is Eric Bledsoe smoking that gives him the notion that he is worth this kind of money? Clearly he’s living in a place where carbs don’t make you fat, bulldogs are the only animal, and girls are easy to understand. Fantasyland must be nice.

    Bledsoe is supremely athletic, but without it, what is he? He suffers a knee injury, and he’s a below average player. He had a nice half season in Phoenix and a couple seasons where he looked like a capable backup. He’s 24 so I could understand a 4 yr 40 mil deal. PGs just don’t get paid huge market money. Lawson, Holiday, Conley, Curry, Lowry, and Dragic are all better than him and get between 9 and 12. Seems pretty simple to me. If his agent gets him a max contract, there needs to be an Agent Hall of Fame and his statue out front.
