    Rather do our 6/11 for 4/24 than for just #3.

    If Portland could swap pick with Sac - that would be great. Trade S.Williams (1yr $3mill) for Outlaw (3yr @ $3mill each).
    Portland picks up either MKG or Robinson....

    Well, that sounds like there may be someone above Lillard who they are interested in. If at 3, then you might think it would be Beal, MKG or Drummond.

    If it's Sam and 16 for Gasol then I think LA can take back a TPE in the difference.

    Do they? It looks like they are under the cap depending on who's options they pick up. I really hope they don't rescue L.A. I want the L@kers to choke on every dollar of that contract.

    Yeah, sorry, was thinking of it being done now. They can agree to it, and draft for LA, and do it in July.

    Dalembert has a contract that isn't fully guaranteed this year. Seems to me this would be a team in cost saving mode?

    I wonder if they would still be open to that if we made it #6 and Wes Matthews for #3? Maybe take back Blatch so they don't have to amnesty him? They really need back court help, and probably won't get what they want at #6

    #UtahJazz have long been interested in Weber State's Damian Lillard and nothing has changed that during recent weeks. Whether Jazz make a move to try and acquire Lillard via draft all depends on where he falls on selection night and what trade packages are available....

    #6 for ?

    NBA GM tells me if the draft were today he thinks Blazers take Damian Lillard at No. 6, and wouldn't chance trying to get him at No. 11.
