Collins and Sochan (or Daniels) would be an acceptable outcome IMO.

I’d rather have OG and Sochan/Daniels.

Don’t see how it happens but would be intriguing.
I think best outcome for me would be
1) get Thybulle that fits in the Covington TPE so PHI can sign Tucker. Attach whatever draft compensation fits.

2) draft any of the guards Sharpe/Mathurin at #7, or trading down to #10 and getting Hachimura for #7 and Keon, then drafting Sochan at #10.

3) take on Hayward’s salary involving Bledsoe and other pieces for #13 and pick someone at #13. Any high upside guy would work for me. I could stomach draft Duren at #13, I do think he is a really exciting defensive prospect. Dieng. Trade down and get something with Jovic. Whoever is there and whoever we pick, I’ll put my trust in the new front office.

So if all three happen, we end up with Thybulle, Hachimura, Sochan, and whoever is at #13.

Hayward with an asset seems like a potential great use of Blazers financial flexibility. If his health is better he is a great starter, either to win with Dame or flip for another asset as OKC did with CP3. If Hayward sucks it's only one extra year, and you are still happy with whatever asset Charlotte gives up.

People need to stop referring to Hayward with "if he's healthy." He's never been and never gonna be.
 
I am becoming more and more petrified that Chet is going to slip and we will feel like we can't pass on him.
 

Dyson Daniels
G League Ignite
PG/SG
Age: 19.2


The Blazers are early in their rebuilding process and can afford to swing for the fences for a prospect like Daniels, who possesses significant upside but will need time to fill out his frame and become a more dynamic scorer. Daniels would be an excellent understudy for Damian Lillard while still having the length and defensive versatility to operate in the same backcourt with him and Anfernee Simons. Daniels doesn't need the ball to make his presence felt, as he's an excellent decision-maker, passer, cutter and rebounder and a rapidly improving shooter. He defends everyone from the point of attack to bigger wing-forwards and makes quite a few plays off the ball.


***Worth pointing out that Sharpe is "on the board" for us at this pick***
 
Remember when the Blazers told Farried that he was the pick then we end up with Nolan Smith… LOL. Just sayin since there’s a lot of Sharpe rumors
 
Tomorrow will be nice.

Speculation turns into reality.

Of course, speculation part II starts with respect to trades, etc. Still, be nice to get this never-ending 47-threads with 140 pages each to come to an end (well, some will still post "I told ya's" & Shoulda/Woulda/Coulda's).

Ha Ha Ha! If there was any chance at all of him slipping to 7th the Blazers would be absolutely crazy to pass on that opportunity?
WTF? No chance it happens but how could they not take Chet at 7?
