    Where is their other 2nd rounder in '19 from? Someone sucky, I hope.

    That makes more sense. I can't believe Portland would be sending out picks for players that will get waived. I'm wondering if they waive Haywood and keep Miller and then trade him at the deadline.

    Looks like Cleveland has the lakers and the twolves picks in 2019 2nd round. Not bad...

    Miller probably gets bought out or traded again.

    From what I've read his contract is non-guaranteed, PDX can waive him.

    I can't think about anyone who'd wanna give up anything for him... maybe Miami?

    Speaking of Miami they just traded Napier for a 2nd round pick. Why didn't we offer that???

    I'm not against keeping Miller around.

    I don't see any reason to keep Mike Miller. Reports say he wants to play and considering he's been in the league since 2000, he'll want to play for a serious title contender. Also, I'd rather give the minutes to Harkless to see if there's any untapped potential in his game.

    They are giving us a free pass on a player. We helped them out big time.

    If we could trade Miller for a 2nd round pick that'd be genius... we wouldve turned literally nothing into 3 second round picks

    Cap space isn't necessarily nothing.

    All are not guaranteed, so we can waive them without effecting our cap

    Unless we trade Miller, he's getting released. We ain't keeping him.
