    Defense is bad right? Don't see enough of him really.

    Of course the Rockets are interested.

    They will throw feelers out to every possibly available player over 6'5" and see if they can get any of them to stick.

    Mirotic would be interesting, the offense would improve.....

    He is the best fit in the market outside of fantasy deal.

    sixers will get him if they want.
    sixers can offer Heat first round pick and Bulls second round pick.

    I wonder if the Pels would be interested in taking back any trash in a deal? That's probably the only way it works with the Rockets.

    So hard to define guys now as good or bad defensively because of switching and quality of teammates.

    Mirotic has some physical limitations defensively against big players inside and small guards on switches.

    He isn't really bad because he understands switching and is active.

    If the Sixers are willing to offer the Heat's #1 pick for several months of Mirotic, then they can have him.

    I'd be ok with Mirotic, but i'm not sure i would move 1st rounder for him, sounds crazy maybe but he's expiring, we have no control on his future and may get overpaid in few months...

    Once we add Mirotic, D.Jordan, Wes Matthews, JaMychal Green, and Trevor Ariza, we gonna have a "****ING SQUAD" - in LeBron's estimation.

    Yeah. No chance we land him.
    Too much competition.

    Definitely makes a lot of sense for Philly

    If we have to use Knight to make salaries match in any trade then let's just assume that there is zero percent chance that trade will happen.

    Get involved to get Landry Shamet, this year's 26th pick.
    41% 3FG

    Give up Hart and 2019 First via third team.
