Trail Blazer draft day predictions ONLY no discussion

[blazerfan11]

Purpose: to be able to quickly see who was closest to what actually happened on Draft Day without having to wade through back-and-forth discussion.

Please make your predictions as specific as possible so to be a tie breaker.
Instead of "Portland trades down, gets two picks and uses one to get Jerami Grant", say which picks we will be getting and which one we use to get Jerami Grant.

SO, Please, no responses to other posts unless it's part of your prediction.
Please do not post "Why would Houston do that?"

 

[blazerfan11]

I predict the Blazers keep the 7th pick and draft 1. Keegan Murray 2. Benedict Mathurin 3. Dyson Daniels in that order of preference of who is still available.

 

[Cugel]

Blazers trade 7th pick for Grant.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Blazers trade 7 for Grant and 46

Blazers trade Mil pick, 36 and 46 to SA for 25 and draft Dalen Terry

 

[Blazinaway]

Blazers trade 7 (and maybe a bit more) for Collins and 16, keep 16, trade Mil 1st 2025 and 2nd rd pick for Grant, we might trade 16 for Grant but would prefer not to

 

[SwissBlazer]

7 and Keon Johnson + EBEC for 16 and John Collins.

Draft Tari Eason at 16

 

[42N8Bounce]

Blazers attempt to get J Collins, unsuccessful.
Blazers attempt to get OG, unsuccessful.
Blazers attempt to get J Grant, unsuccessful.
Blazers attempt to get Dort, unsuccessful.
Blazers attempt to re-sign Elleby, unsuccessful.
Blazers attempt to re-sign K Blevins, unsuccessful.

Blazers draft S Sharpe with the #7 pick.

 

[oldmangrouch]

7th pick traded to Detroit.

 

[Storyteller2]

Trades Bledsoe, #36, #59 and the MIL 1st Round pick in 2025 to Detroit for Grant

Takes Sharpe at #7

Keeps the TPE for use either this summer or later in the season (ie, before the February trade deadline)

 

[THE HCP]

What if we want to discuss? How do I choose between the 18 other draft threads!!??

 

[Cugel]

I think Grant will be the "big" addition to the roster. If so it will be a really ugly season. portland needs a miracle

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I think they will trade the #7 pick. Beyond that do not have the slightest idea....

 

[Mediocre Man]

Trades Bledsoe, #36, #59 and the MIL 1st Round pick in 2025 to Detroit for Grant

Takes Sharpe at #7

Keeps the TPE for use either this summer or later in the season (ie, before the February trade deadline)

Not for discussion, so…..it’s great to see you

OKC gets the #13 pick from CHA to take on the Gordon Hayward contract.

OKC trades #12 and #13 to Portland for #7. Portland takes Jalen Duren at #13. OKC takes Sharpe.

POR trades #12+ MIL 1st to TOR for OG Anunoby.

POR takes Procida at 34.

Not the best we can do, not the worst.

 

[RonBrewer]

No clue but i'll take a stab.

I think we make a trade for Grant but don't give up nearly as much as everyone thought and i also think we keep our 7 or trade up and get and Get Pablo somehow.

Off the wall prediction: Holmgren starts to fall like the QB in draft day and he's there at 7 and we have no choice but to take him

Curse you and your prediction

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Blazers trade for two starting forwards such as two of OG, Grant, Collins, etc. Blazers trade out the #7 pick plus other assets such as #36, 2025 MIL pick, Little, Keon, TPE, EBEC, etc.

 

[swish3]

Blazers draft Keegan Murray at draft choice #7.

 

[rotary111]

We draft Keegan Murray.

Acceptable options are

Mathurin
Sharpe
Sochan
Duran

 

[Kell]

Blazers take mathurin with the 7th (secretly hope they take sharpe)

trade Milwaukee 1st with other assets to get their hands on Isaac (no idea if that works cap wise)

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Hollinger weighs in:



If we do trade for #12, AND include #36 and then trade the #12 for Grant, WITH SOCHAN AVAILABLE... I may cry a little. Wizards of the West indeed.

 

[HoopsFanAZ]

Portland trades 7 + MIL ‘25 + uses TPE to DET for 5 + Grant

With 5, Portland drafts Murray

 

[blazerkor]

For me that would be a pretty cool outcome and I think it would make Dame really happy.

 

[Irish Trader]

Mark Williams Duke could be the sleeper in this draft

What are you predictions? Just make a guess.

 

[Hoopguru]

Trade up for Murray.

 

[blazerkor]

My prediction: Bucks 2025 FRP to Charlotte for Thybulle and pick 23. Pick 7 to San Antonio for picks 9 and 25. Draft Jalen Duren with pick 9. Trade 23 and 36 to Detroit for Grant. Draft Dalen Terry with pick 25.

Only the dumb teams want to move back like Sacramento. Diluting the talent people is most of the time a loser. Star power is more important than depth. I feel like Portland can get Grant workout sacrificing the upside of a Sharpe or Murray. They just have to take on a contract to get a later first to move for Grant.

 

[SharpeScooterShooter]

Hello,
My prediction:

within 36 hours Portland will have done something with this pick.
I am 99% certain my answer will be the only 100% correct answer.

50% of you may disagree, but will not be able to tell me so!
I like this thread!

 

[B-Roy]

We're not getting Sochan...
