    Why the fuck are we sending second rounders?

    Asset in Mike Miller? :dunno:

    Out of all the moves that have happened so far, this one has got me kind of confused. The only thing I can speculate is there is more to come.

    This makes no sense. Both players are getting cut so why are we giving up value?

    My guess is that's a typo. We are probably receiving the two picks

    I can't imagine we're interested in the players themselves. But they both are expiring contracts. Haywood is something like 10M and Miller is around 3M I believe. Perhaps it's to have some expiring contracts sitting around to trade? Only thing I can think of...

    I knew that would happen from the first little rumblings about possibly trading for Haywood, It's the Miller addition and sending out two 2nd rounders that has me confused.

    It has to be a typo. Olshey turns 2nd round picks into valuable players, why would he sends out 2 for two players who will be cut?
    Maybe Woj missed where we get a 1st round pick or something

    we had cap space anyway, which is more valuable for acquiring expensive players than expiring contracts.

    it still doesn't mean shit... Clevelands 2nd rounders will be 55-60th... so we won't swap in 2019 and 2020s 2nd wont be worth shit.

    Why does Portland do this deal? What are we getting out of this? Or what's the point?

    Ohhh most favorable of their two 2nd rounders, not a swap. Okay that's a solid move.

    Maybe since we helped them here, they'll let us have Delly?
