    Uhh no thanks.

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    You'd have to really want Bledsoe to want DJ's contract...

    Yea kinda how i feel as well. DJ = Le Poo Poo I'd rather keep RoLo.
    Bledsoe while he has high upside I'd probably just stand-pat and draft Burke based on this trade.

    waiting until the draft is the right thing to do, u never know mclemore could fall to us, or oladipo, if we can get oladipo or mclemore i'd be fine with trading eg for bledsoe

    We should want no part of Deandre Jordan.

    no thanks to that too.

    Bledsoe is only 1 year younger than Gordon.

    This eould be a horrible trade...deandre jordan is a liability in tight games and he cant score in the post. I would hate a trade like this.

    Wow, I would take any one of Guru's trades in a heartbeat over this one. Good thing our FO is claiming this isn't true. DJ is straight awful and Bledsoe isn't enough for me to want this. I wouldn't give EG straight up for Bledsoe and DJ, and they want us to throw in Mr. True 7 Footer on a great contract Lopez?? No thanks. What do we need to clear salary for? Trying to get Dwight and CP3 over here? I also doubt the trade Mr. Blake's best friend. Now who is he going to complain about Chris with?

    No thank you. I'd way rather draft Burke and keep Gordon. And I'd take Sideshow over Jordan anyday, even if their contracts were the same.

    Oh I thought this said GV and Lopez for Bledsoe and Jordan... which I'd consider because we don't need the space. If Bledsoe were in the 2nd year of a rookie contract maybe, but he's in his last year. He is due to get wildly over paid.

    Yucky. Yes I just said that. This trade makes for a perfect excuse to do so.

    only way you do this is if you really, really want to move Gordon's contract + you have serious longterm concerns about his ability to stay healthy. but I could how the Clips getting bounced in the first round and wanting to hold CP3 and take some pressure off him could motivate them to deal.

    I would do this trade, the lottery next year is chaulk full of talent, and his trade would get us a good pick.
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    Let's hope Demps isn't this dumb. Jordan might have one of the worst contracts in the league. He is just plain AWFUL.

    EDIT:mis read original tweet, sorry McNamara

    Yeah this is how i kept reading it because this is what i wanted. Selective reading haha. I wonder if they would do GV, Lopez, and later year first round pick?

    Now, Jordan is truly just a great athlete. No basketball skills whatsoever. I mean, not a single one besides dunking.

    But could this really be the price of snagging Bledsoe? It's enough to make me not want him anymore. Maybe we can snag a 3rd team to get in on this.

    Couldn't of said it any better myself. God this is an awful trade, and my whole opinion of Demps will change if he does this.

    Bledsoe is pretty much their only tradable asset. So if you want Bledsoe they'll make you take DJ the albatross. Makes sense for them but pretty much not for anyone else in the league. DJ is turrible.

    I understand that they may want to get rid of Gordon, but that isn't the way to go about it.

    Even if you love Bledsoe.
