I honestly think we are getting number 2, I keep seeing that number everywhere. Someone remember this post when it happens.

So who is your best guess, are the players that are available for the number 1 pick? (That the Blazers actually want in return.)

Maybe a number of diehard fans here would be mad. But the average season ticket holder would've heard more of Grant than a rookie so I don't think there would be much PR issues. Especially so if Dame comes out with strong support of Grant.

trading a top three pick for Jerami Grant should be a fireable offense. I know it’s the popular thing to shit on Cronin but he isn’t that dumb.
 
what is the worst pick we can get

well get that one, you heard it here first

I agree. I don’t think the Blazers can straddle the fence and try to both win a title in Dame’s window and develop a young top tier talent. My guess is that if the Blazers hit a top four pick they trade back in the draft to get two picks that end up being used in trade to acquire two established players.
 
I might be in the minority but the one player I do not want is Chet fron Zaga --- someone name the last Zag picked in the lotto that turned out to be a good NBA player ......

There is only a couple players I would want in the Top 10 that MIGHT be players that might be instant to maybe 1 yr to grow into a minor star or better type player --

Banchero , Jabari and maybe the young man from Iowa --Murray

If the the Blazers feel like they are not rdy or cannot get them then you trade down OR out and get a vet and a future 1st or something


I am crossing all my fingers and toes for the Blazers and hope they get a top 4 pick but the way this season has gone expecting the worse scenario.
 
I have a busy evening and will probably end up just watching on my phone. What time should I be checking in?

We have a one 10th of one percent chance of getting the number 10 pick. That is the worst pick we could get.

We are getting the 7th pick. You can play that simulator hundreds of times and #7 comes up the most and continues to come up. The more you play the more it becomes obvious 7th pick is in the cards.

I will never ever understand this logic.

but I’ll play. Name the last #1 recruit the Zags had before Chet.

I agree about Chet though. No thank you

If it ain't Duke or Kentucky you won't find many.
Last 20 years there have been 15 colleges and 3 countries that have produced #1 picks.
 
Assuming we get Grant with assets other than our lottery pick, I don’t get why we HAVE to trade our pick. Think about it, once we resign Simons and Nurk we are pretty solid
Dame/Hart/Little/Grant/Nurk/Lotto/Simons/
Winslow/Watford/Vet Center plus a few free agent signings. That is a very solid team. Our lottery pick doesn’t need to be a starter right away, if it can contribute off the bench as a spark plug that would boost our overall depth tremendously. We can talk about getting another established player when we get closer to the deadline

im talking about #1 recruits, not #1 draft picks. Gonzaga having lotto picks to begin with is a testament to their program, and shouldn’t be held against them or the players that have been drafted in the lottery.
 
The closer we get to the lotto, the more I am starting to see 7th pick pop up. Today's 10 draws:

7,2,7,2,7,4,7,3,6,7


Still lots of top 4 though.

My prediction is we get the 4th pick somehow.

We aren’t getting Grant without the pick
 
I like Chet. If we can get him take him. Put him at the 4.
