Go get Bledsoe?

[NUMBERICA]

Of course not, thats not the point. He should talk to his gm instead

How do you know he hasn't?

Watson just got canned after 3 games.

That seems really ****ed up. I was sure they had finally embraced the tank, like they should have done years ago. Instead, they seem delusional about their chances to win. Either that, or they just needed to throw Earl under the bus to appease the fans. Now they will just have to pay somebody else to coach a losing team.

When you tank, the idea is to give young guys reps and generally increase their NBA knowledge and basketball IQ. Watson has shown an incapacity to actually coach those things as he has no offensive schemes nor defensive strategies. Tanking doesn't matter if the players don't improve under your tutelage. It was the correct decision.

This coming from a guy who likes Earl Watson. He needs to be an assistant coach.

Of course not, thats not the point. He should talk to his gm instead he chose to tweet his feelings like a 16 year old after fighting with his parents.

If the gm doesn’t know Bledsoe would rather be on basically any team but the Suns then he is incredibly stupid and has absolutely no foresight. It is totally the point that it is the Suns - they are a ceaseless dumpster conflagration. Besides, what courtesy does he owe the Suns? He’s already competing for them, not sure the organization is even doing that.

At a certain point, a player with legitimate grievances should perhaps be viewed as something other than a multi-millionaire slave. Yeah, that's a charged term, but people talk about trading anyone and everyone for anyone and everyone as though they're property. These players are people, and Bledsoe's situation is a far-cry from the situations that Lebron, or Hayward, or any such player have walked from.

 

[NUMBERICA]

All that being said, I don't know if his being traded here is the right situation for any party.

Its thought that Bledsoes tweet was in response to the impending firing.

His team plays with no respect for the game. That 70 point thing last year was pretty pathetic I give him a pass based on that ****hole of a franchise

I watched some of the Clipper-Suns game last night - I couldn't believe what I was watching. The Clippers won by 42 and missed a ton of wide open shots.

The Suns weren't even trying. I've seen teams jacking it late March/early April when you're playing for ping pong balls - but never in game 3. Really an embarrassment.

It would only be better because he would be on a winning team, but he wouldn't have a huge role. Man, he would be a great fit in Denver.

Huh? Expecting a player/human to keep his displeasure in house while his current team seeks a trade is a more than reasonable request.

 

[infection]

So who’s next in line in Phoenix? Is it Ty?

 

[enchilada_style]

This. Cue someone’s defense and rationalization.

You called it.

 

[416Klawzz]

Earl can still play some back up pg for us tho

 

[fishonjazz]

I bet the Suns would take Exum straight up. Would anyone here do it? I'm not sure I would.

I would do that

Once again, how do you know he hasn't?

 

[Shad]

What about exum, hood, and Burks for Eric and booker? I'd do that in about .1 seconds

Well, I would have if we didn't get Rubio. I'm liking rubio

 

[enchilada_style]

I would hope he has but does that all of a sudden justify the childish tweet? Under what circumstances is that ever a good move?

Glad he got canned. Teaching a team to play tough does not mean allowing your players to take cheap shots. Wonder who will accept the head coaching job now that they've gone through Hornacek and Watson. I can only think of one man.........................Ty Corbin!
