Go get Bledsoe?

If Bledsoe turns out and delivers in Milwaukee, that team is the the team to beat in the east.

I'm very hard for the Bucks right now.

I think Bledsoe solves a couple of weaknesses for them. But trading Monroe made them thin upfront. They have not been rumoured in the Jahil Okafor talks, but maybe now...

And their biggest weakness is still unresolved, but I doubt they fire Jason Kidd mid-season.

Giannis can play the 5 too though of need be.
 
Nice trade for the Bucks. And the Suns got two picks for a guy who didn't want to be there, so they did well also.

It'll be interesting to see what Phoenix ends up doing with Monroe.
 
I was thinking the same thing. If we sign Jabari on a max contract in the summer, it will be very, very hard for the Bucks to match. They will be way over the luxury and no picks to use to dump contracts.

How? We dont have room to offer him the max.

Edit: I guess if we drop the rights to Exum, Favors, Hood, JJ and Neto along with not picking up the options on Thabo, Jerebko and Udoh we might have room. I think we might also have to trade Burks for nothing as well though.
 
Would people have traded Favors, a similarly conditional 1st, & a future 2nd for Bledsoe? Not sure if it would've worked salary wise but seems comparable.

Personally, I'd prefer we go the other direction & reload with young talent but that doesn't seem to be the Utah way. So, while I don't like the fit, if the FO has decided to remain competitive & bank on DL hitting on another pick/acquisition, that would've been good value in my opinion.

Ultimately, I'd prefer we keep this year's pick as it will likely be our highest in the near future & hope DL is able to get Denver on the phone. But it should've at least been worth consideration. Curious what people think?

Are you the real Karl Malone?
