How many trades will the Blazer make on or before Draft night(s)?

    I agree with you but I just don't think anyone will do that before the draft. Teams will want to see who falls to them first. So maybe tomorrow night, or in July after free-agent signings??

    NO WAY! I value those second rounders more than our first rounders!

    How about

    ...because I don't care about those picks yet.

    Thing is, Houston supposedly has its sights set on Durant, so they would only do this if they thought that Phoenix would prefer Jerami over whomever they pick at #3.

    They might trade during the draft if someone they want didn't fall to them.

    A team like the Lakers for example is in win now mode, they need a PG. We could get their pick, then package 14 and 17 to move back up.

    Yeah, but that would be tricky since the draft is now spread out over 2 days. The Lakers might not know if the player falls to them until Thursday night, so moving up on Wednesday would be tough for us

    I’m anxious to see if Dallas and Portland can get to an agreement on a Grant trade. Lots of chatter

    Yeah, I don't love it. An unprotected '25 pick for Grant, but likely to be 20+. Getting out of Grant's deal is nice, but there's not a lot they can offer.

    True, but it's consistent with virtually Portland trade rumor: Blazers bent over and grabbing their ankles.

    Eliminate all the seconds.

    Send Dallas '31 to Portland & send #40 and Reath to Detroit

    Can they add some swaps to this?

    I would do this.

    For some reason it wouldn't allow the '31 in, because of the stepien rule, but it would be fine, because their '30 pick move is just a swap. So yeah, I would make that change.

    Forgot about swaps, throw in a swap in '26, maybe in '27 and 29 also

    Malc is the most likely gone although might not be the first gone. Parse that....

    I wouldn’t get to greedy with trade proposals or you will surely be disappointed. But maybe I am wrong and we kill the night!??!
