Trading 3rd pick poll

[BlazerWookee]

If his contract wasn't so God-awful, KAT.
Bridges makes the most sense.
Siakam makes good sense.
Zion has the highest risk-reward difference.
Orlando deal means Dame is probably gone, and I don't want that to happen.

I'll push back on this. Think he and Grant would be near perfect fits on both ends actually.

He's 29 and has a solid 4-5 yrs left in his prime given his low NBA mileage.

He is not supermax eligible as of now and won't be unless he makes an all nba team next year. And if he does... Then awesome! We just got a second all nba player on the team and should be winning.

Yeah we'll just have to disagree on this, normally I like your insights. I'm not as high on Siakam as you are and don't want to trade #3 for a 30 year old.

Not possible to give an accurate answer unless the poll is truly a hypothetical #3 for <insert player>, which of course, isn't allowed given the salary cap situations.

It's more possible than the usefulness of this post.

I voted the invisible "other". The Bulls are an absolute mess with their salary cap. Paying max salary to jump onboard the Ball Bro's hype train from 4 years ago is nipping Chicago in the shins.

my "other" player is Demar DeRozen. Chicago will love the free rookie(s) from Portland, and a stumbling Center in Nurkic who can steer the Bulls tank towards a brighter young player horizon.

Blazers keep Ant
Cronin trades Sharpe and #3 and Nurkic, for DeRozan
Blazer fans will lose their collective minds.
But this is Lillard's team,
it does not belong to the customers.

Sharpe and #3 for 34 year old DeRozen LMAO

I'm good with us acquiring DeRozen, but it won't take 3 or Sharpe. Only question I'd have is if we give up picks or send out Ant and receive picks in the deal.

The more I think about it the more I like acquiring Zion.

Huge risk it's a big fail. But it's the only move with contending upside and MVP payoff if it works out.

Debatable. Lets create a thread to find out.
