Trade deadline thread

[The Q]

I only like it if they now get a good trade for Lillard. Hart and Bledsoe contracts are not guaranteed after this year. Blazers could work up to 50 million in cap space, all the picks that they could bring in with Lillard, and still have Simmons/Nickeil/Little to start the rebuild around.

No need to rush Lillard, I suppose, could be done in the offseason.

50m in cap space would be enough to recruit beal lol

 

[The Q]

Meow what is Portland going to do?

Makes that job a lot of fun

 

[Sparhawk]

Portland just traded a guy with a contract meow underwater than kemba walkers, and Larry nance…for a top 10 pick

Meow what is Portland going to do?

Please tell me somebody else sees this and I'm not going bonkers.....

I have meow idea what you are talking about

 

[WiggyRuss]

He's gone

I wouldnt rush to that conclusion

tons of draft capital- which should include 2 pretty high picks....cap space.....Simmons and Nurkic.....

it could be an interesting rebuild on the fly with this one year step back.

What is the New Orleans pick? is it NO pick or one of the tons they got from other teams? Protections? Thats a big deal.

If the Blazers have their own pick, and then get another pick- that is likely lottery, 50-60 million in cap space--- and you start with Lillard, Simmons and Nurkic- you are in a pretty good spot.

With Lillard they cap at 45 million in space if they void Hart's contract, and that is before the Simons extension that will not be cheap.

If between 5-14-Portland receives it. Right now they are at 9

I now see a possibility for a Lillard for Simmons trade

 

[Sparhawk]

Anfernee Simons

Please spell it right.
Some of us only use this board for all of their quality information and the alternative means a lot more to Sixer fans......

They landed Levert for basically a late pick lol

There should be a period where he cannot re-sign with the team, just like the cannot re-acquire via trade period.

 

[Sparhawk]

Maybe.
Yuge risk if he doesn't heal properly and cannot play in the playoffs.

If I had to rank the three :
1. Harden
2. Beal
3. Lillard

And I'm not entirely sold on Harden.
