Bulls Agree

Blazers Agree. Finally we got our long-term PG to lead this squad.

GL with Bias Bulls and nice dealin' with you.

....and cut Morgan to make it work. (If you need to cut 2 then cut Morgan and Sczerbiak).

[BullsGM3]

Same to you. Glad to get 7 rookie deal years of Bias/Porter. Bias has obviously shown he has a lot of ability and I scouted/almost drafted Porter at #12 two years ago

Very happy with what Zeke gave me these last two years, but I'm not so sure if his best position is PG. Either way he has a very reasonable contract. Hopefully the Blazers can figure out a way to get Kersey back on track.

Are you serious?  You mean that guy turning the ball over 4.4 times per game?

I think you may have gotten the 2nd best point guard in the deal.  I mean, if you were planning on using him as a SG, then I could maybe see.  I don't see you winning any games with him as a point guard.

What good is Hakeem going to do if the point guard turns it over before he can pass it to him.

[CelticsGM]

2nd best PG? Who knows, Porter didn't start PG so far.
(you can't honestly mean Sura, who's a 29yr old 11/7/3to on 41% guy - i would take 13 extra ppg and 50% shooting over that one TO in a split second)

there's no denying Isiah is a superstar. None of the other players involved looks close to that level. Bias is years away from carrying any team, so it will be interesting to see Isiah work with Hakeem now.

otherwise, I like Isiah's contract too. far less than max for this guy is nearly a bargain.
