portland better not get that deal, number one and number five, that would just be unfair to everyone, the indiana trade looks good for you guys, JO, Peirce, green and AL on the one team would surely make the playoffs, if they worked well enough with each other then they could possibly be a top 4 team in the east, although maybe not. i recall hearing that pierce had a real bad attitude problem when it came to sharing the ball with another star on the team, idk if he and JO could co-exist, but you never know.
Portland going after this pick makes sense. The agent for Oden, is trying to keep him and Conley together in the NBA, so brokering a deal to acquire Boston's pick should allow Portland to land Oden and Conley. I'm not sure what Boston would do if they land ZBo. They have Al Jefferson already at PF, which is the same spot Randolph plays. These teams have a history of getting deals done. Should be interesting on draft day to see what goes down. Another team trying to buy a 1st round pick is Minnesota.

Pierce Randolph Jefferson ^Best front court in the league?
