Quite honestly, despite a career year from Bledsoe, he would have been the guy I would not have worried about re-signing. Middleton, Brogdon and Lopez would have been the priorities. Bledsoe is good, a great defender, but deep in the playoffs, when it becomes more of a half-court game, Bledsoe's offense can struggle (saw that against Toronto).

I also believe DiVincenzo and Wilson can take the next steps and be part of the rotation in next season's playoffs.
Bledsoe signed a very team friendly deal, and that contract would be easy to move if they were ever so inclined.
