    I don't see nothing else out that going to make us better at this stage of the deadline.

    Gortat being waived -- I wonder if the Blazers will be interested -- i am not saying i want him but at this point another big who can do something in the paint would be a plus

    The Blazers had two expirings, neither of whom do they want to trade and who are arguably worth more than Mirotic. They certainly can re-sign Chief if they want, using Bird rights. Re-signing Curry would take some salary cutting so the full MLE is available, but the more important point is that the Blazers need him as much or more than Mirotic for this year's playoff push. There are a lot of reasons to bash Olshey, but I don't see this Mirotic deal being one of them.

    Not before we give him a $10M retirement gift! I mean, if we did it for Sideshow and Festus it's the least we could do.

    This would be the part of that post with which most in here will likely disagree.

    “Maybe we were too protective of our assets”

    Trades a couple seconds and two guys that are now on the street.

    Cool!!

    Cash Considerations has been the Blazers' MVP for several seasons now.

    We are going to waste Dame's prime. He is the best player we've had in decades and we're going to piss away his career with these mediocre rosters.

    Evan Turner and a 1st for Trevor Ariza, or Demarre Carroll, or Robin Lopez, or Thad Young, or Jeremy Lin.

    I'm literally going down the list of expirings on teams that would actually want a first.

    Please just get this fucker off the team.

    Maybe. Does Mirotic add enough over Chief to be worth the loss of Curry's 3 point shooting on the second unit?
