    I kinda wonder if we don’t want to draft a guard for obvious reasons and the BPA at 7 is most likely gonna be a guard so we might as well trade back a few picks and take Duren or Sochan.

    New Orleans picks 8th.
    What happens if they take the player Portland wants?

    Would hope Keegan falls to us at 7 but I think Sac will draft him.

    I’m kinda hoping they take Sharpe or Mathurin. Or best case they decide that Fox isn’t the guy so they take Ivey.

    If they do, I'm convinced he'll be garbage.

    What about DD at Point forward? He’s 6’7 with a 6’10 wingspan right? Send Mil pick/Keon/EB for Grant. That seems the most realistic route, and most unexciting.

    Dame
    Ant/Hart
    Daniels/Winslow
    Grant/Nas
    Nurk

    Daniels running point with Dame/Ant running around shooting 3s might be fun?

    I think that would be the plan.
    Making it easy for Nurk to score too. All he'd have to do is copy what Winslow was doing.

    Unless the incentive for Detroit is to reduce as much salary as possible to be a player in free agency. Then the TPE is the bigger
    asset.

    I'm not going to post this in all 17 draft threads. I'm just putting it here because it seems like the biggest one?
    Blazers need to find a way to get Keegan Murray. Simple as that.

    I’m drawn towards what could be with Daniels as well. Higher ceiling in my view.

    I want to draft a guard if he's the best player available and has All Star potential. Can't think of a better team than the one with Damian Lillard, Anfernee Simons and Josh Hart for a guard to reach their potential in the NBA.

    Daniels can be something between Tayshaun Prince and Nic Batum. Not as long as either but he’s a defensive minded playmaker with a high IQ on both ends.
