Stop the bleeding with Bledsoe

This hasn’t been the strongest start for the Phoenix Suns in this post Steve Nash era. Eric Bledsoe tweeted out “I don’t wanna be here” and cleared the air by saying he was talking about being in a hair salon.

Hahaha, okay, Eric. Okay.

But, it’s gotten more worse than that. Sure, the Suns eclipsed their Sun from the team as they decided to honor his request and trade the player. But, we have found out that Bledsoe was fined for that tweet. He was fined $10K. That’s two thousand dollars for each word. Can you imagined if I was fined for this article at that rate?

You’d think this would only impact the Suns, but no. Rumors, as usual, began flying around and the Detroit Pistons decided to shut that down. One rumor was to trade Reggie Jackson for Bledsoe. Stan Van Gundy made it clear to Jackson that a trade was not in talks…for at least Bledsoe.

Anyway, you know things have become awkward when you hear the Suns are planning to let Bledsoe workout at the team facilities. I mean, come on, he is technically still part of the team. This whole thing is a mess and only a trade can stop the bleeding.

I mean, the bleeding will stop at some point. It may very well stop when there’s no more blood left. Then, that means you’re dead.
