In a vacuum and on pure trade value sure, but in the context of where Brooklyn is, I don't think it's crazy for them to decline. If Bridges was on a team that had control of their draft picks it would be different.
I wonder if there could be an element that Brooklyn thinks they could bundle all their future picks (mostly from Phoenix) and get Dame from us? Might make them hesitant to trade Bridges away now.
The Blazers have the advantage as you note that if they trade Dame away and lose more it improves all of their own draft picks value.
It's a very odd situation to have two teams straddling the win now vs rebuild line and both looking at acquiring the others star.
