    From what I gather, which is never a lot, this could help Crawford if he is traded to a team and opts in because he would get early Bird rights. What I don't understand is if Crawford has to opt in, in order for the Blazers are allowed to trade him?

    Yes, he has to opt in in order to be traded.

    So then like a sign and trade he would have to agree to the team. So maybe a late first from Miami, Chicago or someone like that? Would do that team well also because they would get Bird rights

    Extending the deadline is a no brainer for Jamal and the Trail Blazers. Great move by Olshey and Buchanon.

    If Jamaal hurts himself fairly significantly between now and then, it backfires

    GOD DAMNIT! If I'm not mistaken, this happened league wide, not just for Crawford.

    It might have, but it wasn't mandated from the league

    #6 and Crawford to Sacto for #5?

    A Crawford and Evans back court seems like a disaster.

    I gotta believe that's an overpay. 6,11,wes for 5 and evans is pretty close. taking on the crap that is salmons, adding in 2 2nds and a future first?

    If you look without the rose garden colored glasses on, it's pretty fair IMO.

    Evans had a PER of 16.48, while Wes' was 14.12

    Most "experts" seem to think the talent gap from 5 to 6 is pretty wide

    So while it might be an overpay, it's pretty slight, IMO
