    Ohhh I figured out why we're doing this. It gets Brooklyn more wins and us more losses so we improve our draft pick.

    Sounds like a decent plan; should work well.

    Neil said he'll brook no more Lopez's on the team.

    It was payback for Billy Batts.

    Not sure why the teams would make this trade. Lopez wouldn't push Portland towards the playoffs. And if they do make the playoffs, losing this years pick (to the Nuggets) is potentially dumb.

    Although it would be funny to read all the caveats attached to the pick. I.e., Portland trades their pick to Brooklyn, if it's after 4, but before 14...and if it's 14-30, the Nuggets get it. And then the Nets get the Blazers pick in 2018..blah blah blah.

    Even if it doesn't include a 1st round pick, I'm not sure thats a trade scenario worth looking into.

    I do not think we could trade 2016 in any way shape or form since Denver would possibly have our pick in 2017.
