    We know Olshey isn't trading CJ and Dame so why even debate it?

    Let's start with all three picks

    Boston shoulda waited to trade #1. I'd take KP over Fultz/Jackson/Tatum/etc for that team.

    Beat me to it. Porzingis has seemed unhappy there. Makes sense to me but still don't understand what the fuck New York is doing

    Ridiculous, he should be trying to combine the two. Not get his replacement.

    I saw this coming....Porzingas skipped his exit interview and didn't like the way Jackson treated Melo.....3 picks and Crabbe, Davis, Ezeli's contract ...whatever it takes Neil....this guy I want more than Paul George, Butler , Melo or Love

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Porzingis is under team control for three years and hasn't said he's only going to re-sign with a single team in the league. New York can get a monster return for him, Portland doesn't remotely have assets sufficient to get him. Three okay draft picks and roster garbage won't get it done.

    And offer to take back Melo/Noah as well.

    I think Dame/CJ/Melo/KP/Nurk could do some damage.

    Not debating--asking the question. You and I both know that the 3 picks aren't enough for KP. So if you're Neil, and you make that offer, and it's summarily rejected, and Phil says "any discussion regarding trading Porzingis to Portland begins with CJ McCollum", where do you come down?

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    We don't even want to give up a mediocre draft pick to dump a bad contract and you think they'll use Porzingis, a budding superstar, as a way to dump salary?

    The dream of getting everyone's best players while never trading any of our best players is really becoming endemic on this forum.

    So uhhhh how fuckin crazy is the draft gonna get? July 1st as well. I need us to get involved, it will kill everything for me if Portland doesn't get involved with anything. Especially after last summers let down.

    So, the ones who think crap will get us a star in return, would you be ok if a team offered up 3 mid to late 1st rounders and Allen Crabbe or Evan Turner for CJ or Damian?

    I'd trade CJ and draft Donovan Mitchell if you think he could start eventually.
