Understood, but remember when we basically gave the Lakers Derek Fisher for free? That really bothered me. San Antonio seems like a team that would bend over backwards not to let that happen. I think we should have done better in that situation.

We didn’t give Fisher to the Lakers. The way I remember it is his infant daughter had cancer or something in her eye. Her doc was in NY or somewhere in that part of the country. He asked Larry H if he could be let out of his deal so he could find a team closer to his daughters doc, soon after he signed with the Lakers. So he told a cold blooded lie just to get out of Utah so he could return to the Lakers. So no we didn’t give him to the Lakers.
 
I do think its funny that folks are like GO GET DUNN but also would turn their noses up at getting Eric Bledsoe. The Conley for Bledsoe deal is probably too tough to do without Lopez' salary to help match.

I like Bledsoe.

He's better than Dunn imo... by quite a bit. He's paid too much. The issue with Bledsoe in Milwaukee is they have to play him and have no perimeter scorer. We could play him 20 minutes in the playoffs if need be and be just fine. He's the point of attack defender we lack and is phenomenal at it... in the same scheme we run.

A conley for Bledsoe and #24 swap is what I pitched earlier in the offseason. They lack the other contracts to make it happen at this point.

I came around on the Bledsoe idea.

But I was pretty blasé about any Conley trade idea because of how remote the probability of a trade actually is.

Oh I feel ya... and wasn't targeting you. There are some that would puke in their mouths if we traded for bledsoe and the same guys would pee in they pants if we signed Dunn. Kris will be a much bigger offensive liability in the playoffs and has had injury issues. Not that I'm against getting him... just saying that I think the hate has gone too far on Bledsoe.
 
Kris makes Ricky look like Steph. Kris is the better defender at this point for sure. We need to put Kris' defense in Mike's body and we'd be great.

Dunn a better defender tho
 
I really like Dunn at the MLE. He brings a vital importance to winning in the playoffs. He is top five in what he does good. You can’t beat that for 10 mil. Plus he is young. He is the type of guy you stick out there to lock down Murray. Bledsoe would be better on the jazz than mike I think because he is bigger and less ball dominant. Would pair nicely with Mitchell in the starting lineup I think. A pick with it would be nice. But I like KDunn for the MLE

Dunn shot 26% from 3 last year... at $5-6M the defense is good enough that I'm cool, but he's not young (27) so don't expect improvement. If you think defenses ignore Ricky, Bledsoe, etc. just wait until Dunn is out there.
