    Trade 1:
    Jerami to the Lakers
    Rui (hopefully flipped), Vincent (waived), Reddish (waived) and the Lakers 2031 FRP with no protections to us

    Trade 2:
    Ant, Delano and two future second round picks (let's say Wolves 2027 and Knicks 2030) to Orlando
    Cole Anthony, Anthony Black and Orlando's 2025 FRP unprotected to us

    Trade 3:
    Rob to Houston
    Landale and Whitmore to us

    Trade 4:
    Deandre, Orlando's 2025 FRP and the least favorable of ours, Bostons's and Milwaukee's 2029 FRP to NOLA
    Zion to us

    We might have to waive or trade Bari or Duop for roster space.

    I've given up hope of getting a pick or a good prospect. Now I'd just be happy with either a vet less entitled to shots/minutes or just cutting some salary.

    Ayton for CJ

    Grant for Middleton

    Simons for Lonzon Ball

    Timelord for a pick swap

    Concerned that we'll have no action just as in last training camp, free agency, draft, last trade deadline, etc

    The Blazers are the Mariners of the NBA when it comes to trades the last year. Margin moves.

    I'd do this trade even if you take out both picks.

    I'm expecting no trades since that has been all of our deadlines in recent years. That is outside of avoiding luxury tax.

    Really worried we will be stuck with Grant until 2028.

    I would obviously love to get first rounders. I'd accept second rounders though.

    Olympiakos gets DeAndre Ayton.
    Portland gets a Gyros.

    He's worth at least a Gyros food truck.

    Gyros is one of those things I get a couple times a year and wonder why I don't have it more. A good lamb gyro with tzaziki.... my god. Especially if they season the lamb just right.

    I absolutely like a good gyros. But if Olympiaos offers a Gyros for Ayton, we have to take the deal.

    I agree, but Orlando would demand protections on their own pick. At least top-10, and that would be fair
