    So we are rooting for Klay to the Mavs.

    Yes. I’d rather have Laker picks.

    We could really use a player who could do that!

    I'm a fan!

    I guess if we get the right return, I'd trade him to Orlando.

    This. I'm happy they're having discussions on trading Grant. Nobody (well, most of us) wants us to be locked into a mediocre play-in team with no cap space.

    If you wanna compete with BOS, NY, and PHI, somebody has to be very interested in Grant, and perhaps Ant too. Lakers would be swept by the top East teams. AD and LBJ will never be as healthy as last year and they weren't even close to contending. GSW? getthefuckouttahere. Not even close. Playin team.

    I don't think the Lakers have much of a choice now that Klay is with the Mavs. They either pony up for Jerami or tell LeBron they aren't going to be seriously in contention.

    Now realistically who are the only suitors for Grant at least at this time my guess is :

    Clippers -- BUT have ZERO to trade so scratch them off
    Lakers -- however DeMarr is now the one to watch on this front that would be a wrench in this place
    Warriors ? -- They lost Klay and could use another scorer but what do they have -- ( have not looked yet )
    Rockets ? -- They seem to be a semi reasonable landing spot too but again need to see what they have to trade

    I think this is about it so someone correct me if I am missing a spot ??

    You did great. I do think the Lakers and Warriors are most likely to try and get Jerami to help them win more now.

    Grant being with Klutch is the only remaining reason I have some hope here

    I think the truth is in a Laker / Blazer deal I am not sure either side has a advantage cause the landing spots for Grant have kind of dried up even if the Lakers need Grant. If there is an advantage it's only a slight one by the Blazers so now it comes down to what is needed for the trade to be good for the Blazers and even the Lakers to a degree. I am going to lay out a trade that I think is fair for BOTH sides and here it is ...

    Blazers Trade :
    - Jerami Grant
    - Kris Murray

    Lakers Trade :
    - Rui Hachimura
    - Gabe Vincent
    - Dalton Knecht
    - Future 1st 29" ( top 3 protected )

    I think this deal is fair for both sides and shows a little give and take and only thing I might adjust to throw the Lakers a future 2nd but I think both sides win
