Seems like we could have beat that offer.
 
It’s a move to hopefully keep them in the playoff race after Demarcus went down. Portland won’t do anything and it’s up for debate whether they even should because they are playing good basketball right now. Don’t know who else would be out there to try and trade for anyway
 
As much a Blazer as Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and less than Justin Jackson.

Not as much as Federico Kammerichs.

Why give up a first round pick for Asik? He doesn't even sniff the court and is overpaid already.....we don't need another bench center

Chicago took a useless backup C with a big contract and a 1st for a young stretch 4.

I think we could have beat that offer for Mirotic.
 
well, we're kind of settling the trade deadline pricing down...

1st plus 2 ok starters: Blake Griffin and Salary Matching
1st plus Salary Dump: Nicola Mirotic.

Unfortunately, many Blazer fans seem to want:
Salary Dump + Salary Dump = 3rd or 4th option.

I think Mirotic would be a HUGE upgrade from Aminu at PF.

16.8 PPG, .429 from 3pt, 6.4 RPG in only 24.9 MPG.

PER 36 are 24.3 PPG and 9.2 RPG

He has a 22.2 PER

His 108 DRtg is 2nd best on the Bulls.

He's 25 years old.

I like NO's drafting ability, but is he going to get that kind of performance out of the next 1st round pick? There's no guarantee.

Are you suggesting that merging this thread into the "Around the NBA" thread should be my first official moderation action?

I'll let this thread roll for about another hour or so, assuming it gets activity, and then do precisely that.

I wouldn't merge.

Looking at the Forum's home page, you see the big news in the thread titles. The trades are big news, no?

Blake Griffin is a superstar, and a blockbuster trade makes waves throughout the league, and significantly impacts the likelihood of other teams, including the Blazers, making subsequent deals. Mirotic is....not.

But I'll defer to your judgment.

It's still news of interest, IMO.
