OT The Giannis Sweepstakes (1 Viewer)

[Pinwheel1]

ESPN Trade Machine says Grant, Scoot, and Hansen work salary-wise. Milwaukee would want its own pick back.
That said, I am not sure I would do it unless Giannis agrees to be in Portland for at least two years.

Deni & Shae better improve 3 point shooting in a league where its absolutely needed for a team to content. We are at bottom 5 now.

Agreed. Shae's high arching step back three with hand in the face was tantalizing last night.

Well it was reported that the Blazers had a deal on the table at the deadline and Dondun said next time they would be more aggressive. This is what I like to hear.

Aggressive can mean stupid and short-sighted in the NBA.

I wouldn't mind giving up as much draft capital as it would take to land Giannis but I don't want to give up Deni, Tou, Shaedon or Scoot who are all ascending for an aging MVP.

What about Clingan?

 

[KingSpeed]

You can’t have too much talent. Injuries happen etc. I’d rather have Deni AND Giannis than one or the other.

I think no matter what we are involved in Giannis trade whether that’s getting him or a player in return for some of their draft capital. Hard to rebuild when you don’t have your own picks. I’d be pretty stingy with the one pick that is unprotected

Going to keep this simple :

Unless he is willing to sign a new deal then NO -- period

If we get Giannis, do we have to take his brothers as well. One Blevins is enough, don’t need two more.
