    For me it would be Lilliard and Drummond. Two needs filled, a PG who seems like a pretty good/safe pick, and a swing for the fences with a big.

    Best case scenario that is the most realistic for me

    Lillard and Henson

    Thomas Robinson and Dion Waiters.

    Maybe pick up a mid-first (Crawford?) and look at Harkless/Lillard/Ross.

    One of Robinson\Barnes or MKG slipping to #6 (or POR paying a small price to flip flop with SAC) then POR taking a Rivers\Waiters or Lamb at #11..

    Trust me, with some of our posters you need to be more specific with your question. Because the way it reads now you will get Davis and Robison as the best case scenario (Both slipping to us)

    Agreed, no clue how to make it happen though.

    For me it would be:

    6: Robinson; 11: Lillard

    followed by

    6: Drummond; 11: Lillard or 6: Lillard; 14: Leonard/Zeller ; 16: PJIII

    If you want Lillard&Drummond, I think you have to take Drummond and hope Lillard falls(Rivers and Waiters pass him), or you trade up.

    MKG and Lillard best-case, but I don't think that's happening.

    MKG and Ross (maaaaaaaaybe Rivers?) would have me high-fiving and drinking Rose City Kool Aid.

    Allow me to slightly modify my answer.

    Best-case for me is if the following is our lineup on Opening Night.

    Nash/Wroten
    Batum/Ross (or Kim English, if we take R. White)
    MKG/Crowder (or White)
    LMA/O'Quinn
    Hibbert (or Ilyasova, McGee or Hawes)/Thomas/Alabi
