Word. Granted it's only based on 31 games but Bledsoe was All-Star bound.

Not so fast only because Lillard got snubbed lol and I'd imagine Bledsoe would've been behind him

He would have made the All Star Game if he played in the East (and been healthy)

That's a lot of ifs

I don't see any scenario where Bledsoe makes the All-Star team playing on the team he was playing on

CameronCrazy06 · Jun 2, 2016

Regardless, if you want to say his stats are inflated, he put up pretty similar numbers for the past two years on teams that contended for playoff spots

buzzy · Jun 3, 2016

Alright, yeah he wouldn't have made a crowded West team.

But if you look Lillard's and Bledsoe's stats, they're pretty comparable. Dame scores a little more but he's less efficient and is obviously a worse defender than Eric. And Lillard is starting to get the superstar tag. I'm just saying that if you're projecting somebody to be "better than Bledsoe" then that is a really, really good player.

Detroit extends GM Jeff Bower

I just want to know what he even does

Pugz · Jun 12, 2016

hes the man who sets the trades up and stan just okays them. stan has given bower most of the credit for getting all of the moves we've made to bower.

Also a GM's job isn't just moving around players. They have a day job, handling finances and business operations, scouting, personnel decisions etc.

see i thought ops jobs were for the president

Pugz · Jun 12, 2016

president oversees everything but gm is usually second in command. he and svg work together on a day to day basis

That sucks lol

Coulda had Steph & Klay, but instead got Eric Gordon (although you probably don't get AD then)

Bulls supposeldy trying to trade Rose and Butler this summer. I don't know how I feel about this. Trading Butler puts the Bulls in the top 8 draft order next year. Bulls supposedly holding out for Wiggins, no way that actually happens but it would be fantastic

Pugz · Jun 14, 2016

it was said they prefer to trade rose

jonathanlambert33 · Jun 14, 2016

Yeah I wouldn't even waste my time trying to acquire Wiggins

elcheato · Jun 14, 2016

No one is going to give up anything of value for Rose

BwareDWare94 · Jun 14, 2016

I don't want Butler in Minnesota. I like the young trio of Towns/Wiggins/Lavine. Absolutely love the starting lineup of Rubio/Lavine/Wiggins/Dieng/Towns. Adding Butler for Lavine, Dieng, and some picks does more for right now but I think something special is brewing in Minnesota, especially on the offensive side of the ball. I'd rather let them grow defensively, even if it takes an extra season.

At the same time, I suppose they worry they can't keep them all, but still. Stand pat. Draft Buddy Hield to add a shooter.
