    Sounds like a troll to me. They are in same age group (Miro is few month younger). DMo is bigger, more athletic, better defender just as skilled if not more so, much more dangerous in the post, and is slightly worse 3point shooter.

    I'd like to have both. A front court of Howard/DMo/Smith/Mirotic would work very well together. Play Howard with Mirotic as much as possible, and do the same with DMo and Smith.

    Or maybe you would prefer Bargnani over both Mirotic and DMo? :grin:

    mirotic was regarded as one the best players, best center in europe. so would expect a higher upside.

    the bulls should dump gasol instead of throwing mirotic minutes at sf sometimes.

    and does that mean anything? DMo was averaging 12/8 in euroleague being 21y old. 2015 DMo would be averaging 25/10 in euroleague.

    At the time they needed talent... so they drafted a 20 year old euro who wasn't coming over right away, and would likely need years to develop.

    Listen, kid. I don't think anyone is calling Mirotic a scrub here. We're just saying DMo is basically the same age as Nikola and he's already adjusted to NBA style of basketball and we know exactly what kind of player he is. Mirotic is still an unkown variable as far as the way he's going to impact the game is concerned.

    There. How about you quit whining and b*tching now about your precious euros.

    You know what man...

    YOU are the wanker.

    Who gives a damn about Mirotic? He doesnt even play for us and trading his rights seemed good at the time. Actually, it looks even better now.

    Id rather have DMo. He has really improved in every facet of the game and although his rebounding is a bit low, the dude can ball. Also hes a 7 footer who is pretty damn fast.

    Why dont you keep drinkin your limonciello, read books on fascism, steal the idea for the noodle, and keep smelling bad over in Italy. Euro League sucks.

    Mirotic is looking good off the bench for bulls. 19pts 8rebs and 1.6 threes for the month of March.

    I like that he is very assertive and looks for his shot. Definite starter in this league

    Not true. We had the 38th pick. Then traded it with Mirotic for DMo. Then sent cash and brought parsons back

    He's playing in such a way that he's going to end a good players stint in Chicago prematurely the same way Gobert ended Kanter's run in Utah. Bulls lose a post player not named Mirotic when they fire TT.

    With Patterson gone, this guy seems like one of the few PFs left that can shoot the 3.

    I'm tired of having random small forwards fill the back up PF spot (ariza, dekker etc) just to stretch the floor.

    What happens Anderson gets hurt ?

    Or random PFs that can't shoot the 3 as your backup like harrel

    What's your thoughts cluthfans ? I know we're looking for future moves but we need a solid roster
