    An All-NBA player for a guy who will never be an All-Star (making all-nba money). Certainly one team wouldn't do that trade, but it's not Portland.

    Is Paul George "All-NBA" in that he will soon have played for every team in the NBA?

    OKC might just keep him to meet the minimum salary cap rule, but I wonder if we can do a three way with them and PHX to land Oubre. He's owed 15 mil next season.

    Frankly Presti is as mediocre as Olshey.
    If Neil traded Dame people would be calling for his head.

    It's really smart. If they trade Adams, I bet they find a contender for Rubio too and trade Green's expiring contract at the deadline. This team is about building around SGA and Oubre now, they'll want one more young player with star potential and then role players to complement those guys. It's smart.

    I'd add picks to make it happen. I do think they'll get better than CJ and picks but maybe they'd go for it.

    So, I'll just amend my Sixers deal. CJ for Harris #21 and their pick next year completed after the draft just like the RoCo deal.

    We then use the MLE or part of it on Dunn and the BAE on Noel and we have a serious shot at a championship.

    Dame, Gary, RoCo, Harris, Nurk, Zach, Hoodie, Dunn, Noel as the rotation with Nas, Wenyen, Rio, Ant picking up spot minutes with the 21st and 46th pick kicking it on the bench.

    If Sacramento really wants off of Ilyasova's contract (they might, they don't need him and might want the savings), then this trade would make sense for both teams:

    SAC Gets: Cash
    POR Gets: Ersan Ilyasova (TPE), 35th Pick

    Portland would then have the 35th and 46th picks.

    They could use both to trade up or take two rookies Ilyasova would fit the roster as a backup 4 whos a solid defender and 3pt shooter.

    We could also use him in a trade to bring back up to $12M in salary.

    If we attached him with Mario (after 12/5) that number could be up to $14M.

    I like the thought for the trade routes it opens up and not for keeping Ilyasova who I believe has lied for his age and is actually 65 years old.

    or would we rather have Bjelicia in a similar trade using the TPE?

    Would rather have Bjelica but Ilyasova is probably more gettable.

    I'd trade a couple 2nds for Bjelica in a heartbeat though.
