    Dwight on 620 Rip City Radio saying CJ was the Blazers best trade piece. More value than Dame? Ant?

    He thinks Norm, Cov, and CJ were worth 4 first round draft picks. The same amount of picks you see given up for MVP level players.

    This guy is still fighting for Olshey.

    Three draft picks? What are they?

    Listen, I didn’t even want Josh Hart and, check my post history, not a fan of trading guards for more fucking guards.

    But the pels trade is a definite win for us. And, if by the grace of god, that pick ends up at 5,6,7… we will have fleeced NOP.

    The Clippers trade… now that’s still mind boggling but whatever

    a 1st and 2 seconds. Haven't seen clarification on the 2nds yet. It's possible they have to wait to declare which 2 seconds, because of the wording on their 1st round pick. If it is 15-30, it goes to Mmephis, but if it is lottery, then Memphis gets 2 2nds.

    They are these things you can use to select players who played in college or overseas.

    Stephen A (lol) on first take said the Sixers could’ve had CJ this summer if they wanted. I’m sure something like that was probably offered. blazers probably countered with CJ + half of that

    Don’t see how this affects the pursuit of Grant or anyone really. We can still ship walker, etc out along with Bledsoe, just have to make it separate trades. I’m also guessing Satoransky will be bought out and McLemore traded, so roster spots shouldn’t be an issue and we’re comfortably under the tax. For example we can take back Trey Lyles for Walker, he has a club option next year.

    With all the money we have, who are we signing now? Who will come to Portland as a Free agent?

    Of course he was the best trade piece because of those 3 you mentioned, because the other two weren't being traded. #logic

    Lol, we don’t have that much cap space.
    We would have to renounce Hart.
    Not resign Nurk.
    Cap hold for ant.
    Cap hold for 2 top 10 picks most likely.
    Cap holds for roster spots.

    He actually suggested that the Blazers should've traded Dame instead of CJ, so scratch that theory.
