It's nice to see nearly every mock I see have Portland getting Salaun at #14. The biggest threat to that is OKC.
Fairly rudimentary thinking. I can bet you the Blazers front office isn't thinking in terms of "horrific draft." They are thinking in terms of...
It's not tanking if you're not good. None of these players make us a play-in team next season. We need one more year of being bad and hopefully we...
Context. You're making my case for me. It's irrelevant for a team like Detroit who has been horrible for so long. Look how Ivey has turned out so...
Disgusting for Portland.
Real GM says Ivey plus 5 for Ant works.
Contract and upside is irrelevant. Ivey had upside. How has that turned out? Detroit is ready to get better. Reed and Dalton are not sure fire...
I generally agree, but not to Detroit. They could use Ant much more than those other two guys.
You're making it a mythical number. This is a weaker draft. What does Detroit need? Shooting. Ant is one of the best and he'd immediately be a 20+...
"Worst draft" is a meaningless term. If the Blazers do this, they do it with a specific player in mind like Clingan.
They're under the cap. Ivey plus 5 works.
Detroit has been doing this forever. They aren't as interested in picking and developing. They'd rather have t the sure thing at this point. Ant...
I think Detroit would easily do it.
Feels very likely to me. They are desperate for shooting and don't want to play the development game.
I'm pretty sure we can get #5 straight across for Anfernee. Can probably get Ivey thrown in the deal too.
If Joe Cronin is reading, he can have this idea for free... Ant for Ivey + 5 At 5, select Donovan Clingan Select Cody Williams at 7 Trade Brogdon +...
Detroit would do it for sure. Probably Spurs. Maybe Washington?
Ant can get us to 8, but not 14 plus the seconds. I think you can get to the Bulls pick by swapping and Brogdon in principle.
Clingan or Cody Williams at 7? I'd love if the Blazers packaged both seconds with 14 to 9 or 10. Imagine a Clingan and Cody draft. That would be A++.
I like him but not more than Cody, Clingan or Risacher.
