Utah Trade Deadline Discussion

Its still gonna go through

Yeah, they'd get Favors. Who is value, but expiring.

I was quoting the tweet you quoted saying they Pelicans have been shopping Asik and a 1st, not expecting value. That's what I find hard to believe.

Asik's deal is essentially up after next year (only $3 million guaranteed in 19/20) and with the stretch provision it can be stretched easily. It isn't that cancerous to give up a 1st alone to be off it.

If there's someone they're having this offseason they might. Who knows

Only if Woj says so

I think by value he means a multi-year contract player. They'd obviously want a really good player on an expiring.

I bet New Orleans is trying to send Asik AND Ajinca with the 1st for Mirotic. Pelicans would save $17 for next year instead of just Asik's money. Now that deal would be a steal for NOLA.

KC Johnson: Told Pels-Bulls potential Asik-Mirotic deal could involve another player from Pels if it happens. Mirotic’s option hasn’t been picked up yet so he has say for now.

Most likely with a 3rd team.

It makes much more sense for them to trade Hill and stretch Asik. I agree in the thinking that dumping Asik is not worth a pick alone.

Favs for Asik and their first? Do it and then hold Chicago hostage if they want the pick.

That's what I said earlier. Would make sense from NO side. get more relief and a little more room under the tax this year.

Still have a hard time believing that's all they want. Niko makes sense with the flexibility his contract offers. I'm sure his camp is what is hanging this up.

 

[David Stern]

What we've learned today is that Mirotic actually doesn't have much value.

Agree. I'd keep the pick though. That's a steal.
