The Blazers continue to try to extract a future first-round pick for J.J. Hickson. CBSSports.com
Read more at http://hoopshype.com/rumors.htm#hAgobjVJbuJUfFdm.99 Would one of our future firsts be too low? I feel like it would be a no brainer if we could somehow get Hickson for a future first. On the flip side, why is Portland looking to dump a 24 year old Hickson who is averaging 13 and 10 for a future first? Just because the dont think they cant resign him? Worth it to explore this option or no? |

Maybe matching salary is whats holding us back from trying to make a deal? I dont see why we wouldnt be all over this.

No one wants to give away a first for a PF playing C on the last year of his contract.

Glad you've changed your mind from last week. I like hickson but that's too many assets IMO
They think they have a good chance to resign him, so I don't see why they'd trade him.

Because he's an empty numbers on a bad team guy and we're going to need all of our first round picks very soon. |

Doubt they get it although we could surely use his rebounding. He would be our Kenneth Faried.

Because unless you want to shell out 8-10 million per (think Illysova type contract) for him this summer, he is only a half season rental. I say hell no on both accounts. |

Portland probably wants to get a 1st round pick back without taking on any additional salary. So nothing the Celtics can offer is likely to be of value to them.
