    I know that, I just thought he was supposed to be a decent player and he hasn't done anything special.

    Correct. He has been lost in the shuffle and hurt I think but not to make excuses. He hasn't been great.

    Drummond to POR
    Aminu to TOR

    I didn't say it was bad, just didnt know if Detroit would want to re-tool that much or keep Drummond.

    In 5-7 years this will be the time known as the "Trade Dame or CJ" part of Blazers lore.

    They would probably want our pick. If we got drummond and kept lillard, cj and harkless, there would be a good shot of us making the playoffs.

    So would you give them our pick, along with clevelands?

    + Aminu + Fes + Noah.

    Absolutely. Especially with Drummond locked up for 4 more years.

    Van gundy loves shooters so I'm guessing he would want Crabbe. Crabbe can start at SF.

    Crabbe, Vonleh, plus all of our picks?

    Maybe I'm naive, but that seems to be over-paying just a wee bit. I mean shit, that's better than the Cousins trade, and Cousins is a lot better than anyone listed in this entire trade scenario.

    I get the feeling (or maybe just hoping) that we're trying to get as many first round picks as possible. Already have 3. Get 2 more by dealing Rouq/Davis/Noah/Fes/etc. And pile em up to send out for a player (Drummond/Butler/Noel/etc). If we get another first round pick or two, keep an eye out for upcoming trades immediately after.

    Our base package for anyone good starts with Harkless, our pick, and one of the later picks.
