Your GM shows interest in Mirotic. Members of this forum are asking about Mirotic.
I personally like Mirotic and would be very happy if he stays. I am disappointed as Bulls didn't try Niko and Lauri starting lineup before we make a decision to trade.
About his defense ... Yeah, I never seem him as a good defender. In fact he would drive me insane with his "lack" of defense. This year, however, watching him in the defensive end gives me joy.
Biggest problem with Niko is that we played him as SF until this year. It failed big time. He is being very efficient defending against PFs
Jerian Grant is available (as it been rumored) and while he wont win any 3pt competition 33% is a much more improvement over 20% of Ish. (Niko and Grant for Leur and Toliver and pick). Bulls probably would not demand anything else as will be receiving an expiring and not having Grant would help the tank.
Talking about 3pt, Mirotic is among league best in percentage at 43%
You are talking about centers, you have one of the league best centers in Andre Drumond
"young player(Ellenson) is getting buried on the bench" . this is what happens to playoffs teams. It happened to us many times. This season alone, we're watching a couple of players we let go as they didn't have much opportunities playing pretty well.
I was giving you a little ribbing. You did however state that it would be a win-win(seems like pushing the narrative). I believe it would not be a win on this end.
And please do not call me sir. Back in the day, our heavy equipment mechanics came up with a funny paper where certain nasty words and phrases were exchanged for overly polite ones. 'Sir' meant a-hole. "Is this a problem?"= who gives a s#it? It was epic, as we all had cb radios and people were just going back and forth using the list. Fun times.
