The Blazers and Nets are discussing a trade that would send Andre Miller and Joel Przybilla to New Jersey in exchange for Devin Harris and Troy Murphy, according to sources. Portland has long targeted Harris as a trade target. Via Marc J. Spears/Yahoo! Sports (via Twitter) Read more: http://basketball.realgm.com/wireta...urphy_For_Miller_Przybilla_Deal#ixzz1EeN4vQQi
trade is about 2.5 mil shy from Por's end - maybe Babbit and Marks to NJ and we get that 1st rd pick?
does our trade exception help us at all in this instance? they keep saying oden makes it work, but if w can use the TE we wouldnt need as much to send back as oden yeah?
What's left of Miller > what's left of Harris. Murphy wasn't even used this year. Here's an idea Cho, set your sights a lot higher or do nothing at all. Larry Miller already gutted this team, don't throw away what little value is left.
Ah good, now that MARIS has weighed in, I think it's safe to say this is in fact a good deal for the Blazers.
Let 'em have Babbitt, I hear they need a small forward to replace Outlaw This would work (in theory) and it doesn't add a lot of salary obligation for them http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=4tbmqtb
Woj says Portland not in lead: As NY-Den push closer to finalizing Melo trade, NJ considers several deals and Portland option "isn't even in the lead," source says
Here comes rain on parade... Wojo tweets blazers aren't even the nets first choice on trade offers With that said... Wojo always shits on blazers
LOL. 3 of our players in a week have supposedly said that they'd leave the NBA if traded from POR. Who says players don't like Portland? lol
The Nets could release him and the Blazers could just sign him after 30 days like the Cavs did with Z last year. It's not like the Nets have a use for Przy.
You could use a chemistry argument or a durability argument, but I think Harris has like 7 more years left on him than Miller, and right now Harris is still putting up better assists PER48 than Miller. So I'd rather have a superior distributor role-player in Harris than Miller since you can begin that chemistry over the next 5-7 years now instead of having to start all over again in 2-3 years when Miller is on social security.
