Do you think Cronin should have traded Scoot Henderson in order to build a more win-now product?

  1. Yes. Lillard should have been top priority.

  2. No. Henderson is too good of talent to pass up.

    Terrible poll question that leaves out any context as it entirely depends on what was available for number three. However, given what we know, taking scoot was the right decision.

    I agree. I would have added an option to keep Dame and trade No. 3, but only for a difference maker who would make the Blazers contenders.

    The question was too vague. Trade Scoot for Giannis? Sure. Trade Scoot for Alex Caruso? Probably not.

    Impossible to answer without knowing what was available for Scoot.

    I am not going to lie this is tough cause while I want Dame to stay and wanted to try the more I thought about it the more I was not sure it was even possible unless they got a Giannis or a Joel E or something. I was not sold Jaylen Brown would have been enough to make this team a top 3 / 4 team in the West and a contender.

    I voted NO for those reasons even as much as i love Dame -- I had no problem with Scoot or rebuilding just how it was handled by the FO
