Hard worker, always professional, under utilized.

I'm glad a better forward prospect will be in his place, but sad to see him go. Hope he flourishes in Detroit and we look like morons, like we do right now intitially.

This guys coming in fit our needs better and Harris will flourish next to Drummond far better than he can next to Vuc.

Win-Win.

Good luck Harris. Thanks.

Tobias united with SVG + Drummond is going to be a beast. Would have preferred to trade him to the West but this is what happens when you got an overload of young guys. Sometimes you gotta ship some out based on teams needs not the players value. Ill miss tobes. He was one of the first players to give us hope post Dwight and I appreciate him for that. Good luck and Detroit and try not to kill us too much in future games :lol:

I hope everybody realizes that SVG is going to make Tobias the next magic killer

very professional dude. I didn't like him at first much but I really respected him as the years go on. more stable and mature environment will do wonders for him I think, he'll do great at detroit.

Classy guy, will miss is personality. But last 3 games showed he's really redundant. Good luck with SVG, Tobias!

Solid player. I expected him to be better at this point than he has shown, but even at his current level he's a legit NBA starter. And it's possible that he was being underutilized. I guess we'll find out soon enough.

I really liked that game his first season with us, against Dwight and the Lakers in Orlando, where he outplayed everyone on our team like he had a vendetta against Dwight even though he was the newest guy on the roster. That was pretty bad ass. Good luck, Tobias!

I'm starting to slowly rationalize this trade but I'm gonna miss Tobias. Dude was a professional, very hard worker and was dedicated to the team. It's a shame we could not see how he would have fared as a super sub 6th man in Skiles's system but he will be just fine in the Motor City. I wish him all the best (except when he plays us) and thank you for the memories Tobias.

Loved Harris. Shame what we got for him.

He's going to be a beast in Detroit, Skiles never used him properly in Milwaukee, and he never used him properly in Orlando. Good job.

Going to miss the kid, I really like Harris and players like him. Truth be told I am disappointed we traded him, just hoping for the best out of the deal.

Harris probably isn't ever going to be a star but he's a solid starter atleast. Skiles really must've wanted him out if we had to salary dump a 23 year old. Good luck with SVG, Tobias!

Wow. Just wow. Thanks Tobias for the heart and skill. I wish him the best. He had underachieved this season but we know what he can do. We hadn't figured out how to use him properly yet. I feel like we just wanted to clear a spot.

Will always appreciate Tobias but think it was a good change for both. Much respect.
