Just a couple of quick notes from a Grizz fan. One, Pau was traded for expirings and draft picks because he was becoming a disruption in the locker room and he was our largest salary. The Grizz finally came to the realization that Pau was not going to lead us anywhere except to maybe a 1st round loss. The expirings help b/c being a small market, we will be better off trying to get lucky in the draft a maybe convince a young up and coming FA to join the Grizz. Two, yes Lowry is being shopped, but that doesn't mean he has to be dealt. Our GM has already stated that Critt is better suited for SG in which case, Lowry and Conley can continue to be our 2-headed PG (and by the way, Lowry is definitely worth a late 1st rounder). And third, now that cap space has been cleared with the Pau trade, the owner and the GM, as they have said, will want either young players or draft picks for Miller. Nothing against the Cavs, but I think Miller will end up elsewhere for a young player (like Cook in Miami) or for draft pick(s) (like New Jersey).
