have an asset that continues to be worth less than they thought


seems like some Dell Demps PTSD going on here

Bledsoe is a good player on a good deal for another 2 years. as he gets closer to expiring, yes, his value will go down. but that doesn't mean he's in the "first offer gets him" pile.

this feels like we all know Demps is going to move the '18 pick and we're constructing trades that would make it worth it. and, yes, i would be happy to get Bledsoe. it doesnt feel like likely, but who knows.

we'll see what shakes out in the draft- if they get Fox at 4, then Bledsoe would seem to be out fairly quickly and maybe a future 1st is all it takes. if they take Jackson or Tatum, im not sure they are harmed by keeping him around, even if he doesn't fit their new timeline or he eventually just walks in FA.

I wasn't thinking Pels or Demps at all when I posted that. I was thinking Denver, but it happens all the time in the league because most GMs over value their own assets. Now Denver has made use of the guys they've over valued, but I'm assuming Phoenix drafts a guard and Bledsoe is on the way out. Sitting a vet as part of a rebuild effort rarely means the vet is part of the future plans.
