Re: Chad Ford: Rush & Jack for Bayless and Diogu (merged)
Wasn't Diogu a fairly low pick (meaning possibly a bigger contract)? Just curious what impact this'll have on our cap over the next couple of years.

Without looking it up I believe Diogu was the 8th pick.

Diogu is on the last year of his contract, so he's worth about $3 million this year, but if we don't want him he's money off the books in 2009.

Ike is a beast! He tore up the Pac 10 and just didn't fit into Golden State's system.

looking at the stats, didn't 'fit into Indiana's system' either. AKA isn't that good. Better than McBob though for third string PF.

Diogu has done well when not hurt and given playing time. He has a soft mid-range touch and despite his bruiser looking body is much more of a finesse player.

Actually he had a PER of 17.2 last year. That's pretty good.
Only Roy and Aldridge and (interestingly enough, McRoberts) had PERs higher than that on the Blazers last year.
Ike is short but has very good offensive skills.

I guess that's what I get for just looking at the raw stats, thanks (zagsfan too).

Jack is one of two Blazers last year that could get to the rim on his own, with Roy being the other.
Jack is not garbage, no matter the abuse he undeservedly got from many posters on this board.
