Report: Blazers Offer Pacers Hibbert Max? wp.me/pPQKk-8pX

Apparently Pacers are considering going there too.

This makes me think Joakim Noah is a steal.

Wow. Just wow.

"Max offer" sounds worse than it is. They offered 4-58 which comes out to $14.5 million a year. That's basically the going rate for a remotely competent big man.

He's making about $12 million on average. Noah is way better defensively, but some would argue Hibbert is a more valuable commodity because he can score in the post.

Meh. Hibbert doesn't do it for me, but there will have been worse players to receive that kind of salary

Hibbert is so underrated by the masses.

So Noah averages about 12 mill, Hibbert about 14.5 and Asik is gonna be near 15 mill in his 3rd year??? This baffles me...
