Portland Trail Blazers Offseason (POR-OKC-LAC)

Portland Trail Blazers Offseason (POR-OKC-LAC)

Btw the 2029 pick going to LAC is the most favorable of Portland, Milwaukee and Boston.

Blazers Lineup:

Damian Lillard, Shaedon Sharpe/Toumani Camara, Kawhi Leonard, Deni Avdija, Donovan Clingan

Scoot Henderson, Shaedon Sharpe/Toumani Camara, Aaron Wiggins, Derrick Jones Jr, Robert Williams III

Draft Morez Johnson Jr at #17

Clippers flip Jrue or hold him until trade deadline, the way he played last year in my opinion means he has positive value even at his contract where a team may offer a first at the deadline, same probably goes for Grant who struggled in the playoffs but shot 40% from 3 last season off the bench. That 2029 pick could also be very valuable

Thunder save 6.6 million and get a team friendly contract for 2 years in Krejci who can handle the ball and shoot 3s also get a 2028 first round pick

LAC-POR-TOR

Trail Blazers Lineup:

Damian Lillard, Shaedon Sharpe, Kawhi Leonard, Deni Avdija, Donovan Clingan

Scoot Henderson, Sidy Cissoko, Toumani Camara, Derrick Jones Jr, Robert Williams III

Portland gain Kawhi and DJJ for cheap maximizing Dame's window while retaining their entire young core. Kawhi joins as the first option and adds solid 3 point shooting to a team that really needs it, he comes off his best regular season whilst staying on the West Coast, around 2 hours and 30 minutes with plane from LA. This would probably be based on him taking a similar extension to the one KD took, around 2 years 80 million which would be incredible for Portland. With some internal development I could see this team being top 4 in the West.

Raptors Lineup:

Jrue Holiday, RJ Barrett, Brandon Ingram, Scottie Barnes, CMB

Jamal Shead, Ja'Kobe Walter, Allen Graves (#19), Mamu, Brook Lopez

This would probably be a move based on another move for a superstar level player but even with just this move I think Toronto get better and cheaper, they get off the Jakob contract for fairly cheap and get a veteran championship player who didn't regress to much in Portland who can also create his own shot and fit into the defensive culture more than Quickley, if they went all out for someone like Jamal Murray they could put out a lineup of Murray, Jrue, Barrett, Barnes, CMB which would be very very fun in my opinon. Or they might just look to trade Lopez and Dick for a really good backup center which would also work well.

Clippers Lineup:

Darius Garland, Keaton Wagler (#5), Benedict Mathurin, Jerami Grant, Jakob Poeltl/Niederhauser

Immanuel Quickley, Kris Dunn, Kobe Sanders, Jordan Miller, Niederhauser/Jakob Poeltl

Clippers take on 3 players who they would hope could play up their value whilst keeping them semi competetive thorughout the season. Then they would look at aggresive teams to trade for Quickley and Grant for a upgrade then whilst taking expiring contracts and maybe even draft capital, here they draft Wagler as their 2 which I would do anyways, I think DG, Wagler, Mathurin and Niederhauser is a fun young core and if they can lock them up on good contracts they might go all in in 3 years when they have all of their future draft capital and free agency money

Would you trade the Orlando pick for 12 or 17 in this draft

Brett Seigel reported that there’s alresdy rumours about OKC moving one of these picks for future draft capital.

I’d do it in a heartbeat not going to lie, but we might have to give more although it is an unprotected pick which they might really like.

The Top 20 is so stacked I’d be very happy with almost any of them. At 12 you could get someone like Lendeborg, Ament or Steinbach and at 17 someone like Cameron Carr who’d be great for our shooting issues.

At least I hope we buy an early second rounder

How would you like the lottery to end up?

Personally I would want

  1. Chicago
  2. Wizards
  3. Nets
  4. Kings

Keeps the top 3 in the east lol and no dynasty in Indiania + Utah would be scary with a top 3 pick…

It being a TV Show allows for more Movie slots and if they don't have to worry about it's box office success. Street level lineup with Matthew Lillards character and Valentina as the masterminds of their mission. The powerbroker as the villain?
