That's good thinking. Turn our assets into the player we want now. Why wait?

Blazers traded a 2025 pick for Grant.

Grant was some who was already in agreement with Detroit that he would be traded to any team he wants if he signed the Pistons deal. You really thought Grant would’ve been that cheap had that not been the case?

Of course, I’ll be hoping the Pels are that incompetent to do that, as you all are. Just doesn’t seem realistic.

The Pels are incompetent. They have no clue what they're doing.
Their two highest-paid players are CJ McCollum (who has 3 more years on his contract) and Zion Williamson.

Isn't that the point of accumulating picks? Use them to overpay to get a player you really want. If you are not a Trey Murphy fan then I fully understand. But he seems like he would be a pretty good fit.

I am a huge Trey Murphy fan, I just don’t think the Pels are willing to even give this a thought, so it’s a moot point. David Griffin is a lot smarter than trading his SF of the future just to hope they make the playoffs for a year or two with an older guard.

The chances of him getting fired in the next few years increases exponentially if he does something like this.
 
Not feeling a need to rush here unless Cronin gets a great offer.

I thought we needed one more guard, preferably a steady hand who could come off the bench. Brogdon can play either guard spot and play it well.

You've got Ayton, Time Lord, Grant, Murray, Knox, Camara, Walker, Moses, Badji, Rieth, Butler as bigs. Is Justise still on our payroll? He'd be a guy I wouldn't be averse to bringing back in a playing-mentor role.

Grant's a 3-4, Murray, Knox also combo forwards. Walker is a 4-5. Butler's a 3-4-5.

Matisse and Rayan are 2-3s

We're actually a bit light in the backcourt now, especially if you figure Shaedon's going to play some time at 3.

If the Blazers hold Brogdon at least until the deadline, the second unit's Brodgon, Shaedon, Matisse, Murray and Walker (well, with some of the starters staggering minutes and playing with them here and there). That's actually ... not bad.

Here's a Brogdon trade idea. What if Brogdon is here to stay and back up both Scoot and Shae at both guard spots and this signifies that Ant will be moved for a forward that makes sense with this roster???

All reporting has consistently been that Blazers are big on Ant. So no I don't see any chance of that.

starting SF's last year in the Western Conference:

Denver 6'10
Memphis 6'7
Sacramento 6'8
Phoenix 6'6 (traded for 6'10)
LAC 6'8
GS 6'7
LAL 6'9
Minny 6'9
NOP 6'8
OKC 6'8-6'5
Dallas 6'7
Utah 6'9
Houston 6'6
SAS 6'7-6'5

if Sharpe/Thybulle are the SF rotation this coming season, then Blazer SF's over 3 seasons will be 6'3-->6'5-->6'5-->6'5. At the same time the starting SG is 6'3 and can't defend a broken chair. Make it stop!

I thought Trevor Ariza looked great as a SF for us, as a 6'9 SF. I thought the Blazers had finally caught on, but that was short lived.

Even before that the Mo Harkless Amniu duo gave us a very effective defense.

It's fine to have a short SG, but then the front court needs length along with very good defense.

IF we are OK absorbing a bit more salary, we can trade Brogdon to Miami for Lowry and a future pick.

Deal not yet official, so we can roll it into this one.

sure seems like Tor needs a solid PG, but Masai just sits and watches the East get better and better, guy needs to pull his head out
 
I like Chicago.

I think the Clippers would be fine if they'd give up a unprotected pick.

I don't think he makes much sense for Miami honestly.

Maybe Chicago does this?

Another would be to send out Brogdon to the 6ers and attach a 2nd or two and then reroute Harden to the Clips for filler + an unprotected 1st.

I’d love to turn 2 2nds into an unprotected Clips 1st.
Click to expand...
Yup. I’d feel great if we could get an unprotected first for Brogdon from the clips.
 
also, unlike Holiday whose value could have only gone lower if we kept him, I think Brogdon's value can only grow from here. I see us keeping him til the deadline and recovering some of the value he lost as a result of that failed physical earlier this summer.

I can foresee us squeezing out a late first from him at the deadline from a team in desperate need for vet PG help for a playoff run.

yaaa.. R-Williams has missed a ton of games. Very talented big man, solid defender, rebounder, lob threat. He unfortunately can't kick the injury bug.

What's the worry? We're Portland! When have we ever had a big man bitten by the injury bug?
