I predict this off-season will make, or, break Cronin.

The Blazers have at least 6 players that other teams should be interested in making a trade for.

How this off-season plays out, will set the foundation for the Blazers future chances at a ring.

I see this as, trade the players and picks that set the team up for future success. No one is untouchable

Blazers need to clean house on the veterans outside of Ayton. Trade Ant, Grant, Thybulle and perhaps Brogdon. Go all in. Be bad next year and get lucky with a top pick for '25.

Not sure what the 6 would be. Grant and Brogdon are the only two I clearly think of. Ant and Ayton could be traded if the Blazers get very good value, if not they are young enough to make sense for the Blazers to keep.

Timelord and Thybulle have negative value so it makes more sense to keep them.

Scoot and Sharpe sure are decent prospects. The rest of the roster is irrelevant scrubs.

Looking from the side of what other teams need. I have no idea what each trade would look like for the Blazers.

Grant to Sacramento
Simons to Orlando
Brogdon to Houston
Camara to Milwakee
Thybulle to Dallas

OK, that is only 5, you got me.

Wait, why would we trade Camara who is our best defender and under team control for another 3 years?

Saw all those suggestions on Bleacher report this morning. Plus Simons to Orlando for Jett Howard and filler.

If the Bucks make an offer too good to refuse.

I would sacrafice Camara, IF, the trade gets the Blazers to the next level.

What do you envision that is? What do they have for us?

Yeah they’ve spent all of their FRPs and don’t have anyone that makes sense for us on their roster. Tou just had a fantastic rookie season and if it isn’t a FRP+ I don’t think you can give up on his potential.

Not sure what next level is supposed to mean, like an improved level of winning in 2024-25? Who cares about next season as we're going to suck. Longer term it's going to take a ton of talent and multiple good decisions so a Camara trade return isn't that significant on its own. Even with a great trade return today there's always a chance just holding Camara will be 10x better long term.

I guess I would consider trading him if it seemed like we got clearly better long term assets. Just doesn't make much sense for that to be available on a young player. Blazers like his upside, but other teams also aren't going to want to cough up much this off-season for a guy who was a late 2nd round picks 10 months ago and the 5th most effective guy most lineups of a 21 win team.

As others have said Milwaukee has nearly zero assets. Maybe their 2031 pick will be available in July, I just can't see them entertaining mortgaging that for someone of Camara current production. They need help immediately, not 2nd year players. They gave up only one FRP for Dame.

Your right. The Bucks do not have much to trade, for a long time. Unless they break up their core.

Only thing I come up with that might work is a 3 team trade. But no solid trade idea that works for every team.
