    with so few stars available in trade, trading up to get potential superstar might be your next best bet. Just get Dame to buy off on it, include him in the process

    why would Toronto trade the 4th pick for CJ?

    That’s why I said “if’”there was any truth to the rumor

    It's kind of a bad time to trade Simmons. They should play him until the trade deadline and improve his value. That being said i would welcome a swap for CJ.

    it is a bit shocking how few rumors there are at this stage, especially after all the predictions of teams being super active at the draft.

    4th pick can bust. CJ is sure thing. All NBA numbers when playing in 33 games without Dame.

    All 4 trades (Paul, Holiday, Bogdonavic, RoCo) came out of nowhere.

    I mean everyone knew OKC was shopping Paul and Holiday was available, but no one knew where they were going to go.

    LOL

    all you have to do is ask yourself if the Blazers had the 4th pick, would they trade it for CJ. Would anybody here advocate for that?

    If you were the Sixers what realistic player would they have targeted for Simmons? Is a CJ even a consideration? Or is it all speculation by blazers fans?

    If I’m the 6ers, CJ alone isn’t enough. He definitely helps Philly, but they need more

    They would probably want a bunch of picks if not Little or Simons as well.

    It's more likely they get Siakam or Beal than CJ
