Suns: Jude! Wolves smelling Blood are preparing to max out.

[Thread]

Jude LaCava, of Fox Sports 10 here in Phoenix is reporting that the Wolves are preparing a max offer for Bledsoe.

tee, hee.

its a good move if they're giving up on rubio. based on their cap situation right now it would need to be a sign and trade...

unless it means he's expected to play out his 1 year deal and they'll offer him a max next summer when they actually have cap room

[baseline bum]

That would be a very Wolves thing to do.

[Killakobe81]

Wolves really need Wiggins to blossom and re-sign there long-term. Otherwise they will stay in the lottery mix with no end in sight ...

[ElNono]

lol Flip Saunders

[Malik Hairston]

max for a guard that can't shoot or pass..

[Raven]

top 35 player in the league

top 35 player in the league

Missed half a year, will probably be injured next year too but still ranked higher than a guy on his team that had a 20/50/40 season. it's funny and sad.

[JMarkJohns]

I'll take LaVine, thank ya much!

[Xylus]

Gimme dat Wiggins

[JMarkJohns]

Not getting Wiggins. But LaVine/filler/1st is absolutely doable.

[Chinook]

Do they have the cap space? Bledsoe isn't worth a lot of assets at all. At best, a three-team trade with Rubio going out makes sense. However, they'll be left with no distributor.

No thanks to LaVine.

I'd rather match.

[Kamnik]

Just get him out and get anything good in return... hopefully a PF.

[Kamnik]

That would be a very Wolves thing to do.

Extremley... Bledsoe is NOT a max guy. I watched him play all the games last season.

What the Suns were offering was more than fair.

[Leetonidas]

So which teams have given out the worst max contracts in the last ten years? This will definitely be up there

[anakha]

Wolves are over the cap, and can't get Bledsoe without a S&T, which Phoenix is refusing to do.

Basically, this is Windhorst reporting something that isn't true (per par, tbh) and then Woj smacking him down 2 hours later. There is no news.

^^^& the afternoon guys on 98.7 FM/Arizona Sports/Gambo is confirming that. The Wolves want to ship my man JJ, Bud and The Rube. The Suns said don't call back unless you're willing to trade The Wig Man.

Ipso facto, the margins are just not there and the cancer continues to spread.

[Mark in Austin]

LOL are we sure Kahn isn't "advising" Flip?

[ElNono]

Damn, what a letdown Cubby

Sounds more like the Suns feel scorned by the Wolves than that they have a blanket policy against S&T. I simply can't imagine that Phoenix wouldn't entertain trading Bledsoe at this point.

[Captivus]

Just what the Suns need....another guard.
