Trade Potential Damian Lillard Trade

[Mr. Robot]

id like to clarify that im not saying that we should trade dame lillard, but if dame asks out (people change opinions and he clearly said after the la clippers game, regarding next season, that hes not here for building, espeacially at this stage of his career), so it might be putting pressure on the front office to land an all-star (caliber) player or he might be one foot out of the door already

who would be your ideal trade partner (dame would have a list of teams where he would like to get traded to and trail blazers would probably trade him to some of those, he deserved that much)... im not talking about others players & picks, but just that one central piece we would build around going forward... would it be aleady an established player or some your player with upside

YOU CAN VOTE FOR 3 PLAYERS !!!!!

 

[Mr. Robot]

my three choices are: tyrese maxey, scottie barnes & evan mobley

im not sure who id like to get the most, ill have to do some analysis

 

[THE HCP]

This is such a July thread.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Jordan Poole being on this list offends my sensibilities.

That said, I said Maxey, Brown, and Mobley.

the only player i can think of that could replace jordan poole is michael porter jr, but i didnt put him in the pool cause of his health issues

 

[Mr. Robot]

potential trade with the cavs would definitely include mobley/allen & garland, cause they need to match the money

certainly something id look into

Bane, Haliburton, Fox

 

[Mr. Robot]

Bane, Haliburton, Fox

trail blazers wouldnt want bane as a central piece and pacers are not trading haliburton (theyre rebuilding team)

maybe kings would pull the trigger, i shouldve put fox in the pool

 

[Mr. Robot]

potential trade with the cavs would definitely include mobley/allen & garland, cause they need to match the money

likewise, potential trade with the nuggets would likely have to include both murray & porter jr

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Bane and Jaren Jackson Jr. (with more or filler) would certainly get me thinking.

 

[Mr. Robot]

if @SlyPokerDog can change it, better options for the pool would be:

Allen & Garland
Mobley & Garland
Murray & Porter Jr
De'Aaron Fox


and to remove poole, KAT, mobley, garland

 

[Strenuus]

Imagine actually writing those words. I don't read anything when I see it. I just laugh at them for only enjoying the team when they are bad.

 

[AngryFan]

You can't possibly think Mobley and Garland is actually an option, right?!

 

[Mr. Robot]

money has to be matched

garland is about to get paid, allen already got his contract, another option for salary purposes is levert, but i dont really have an interest in him

anything other than mobley/garland or allen/garland and i have no interest in making deals with them

 

[Mr. Robot]

if he asks out, dame would definitely prefer 76ers or the celtics

surely, hed like to go to the bucks and play with giannis, but theres no good trade for trail blazers there

You wanting it doesn't make it a possibility.

 

[Mr. Robot]

You wanting it doesn't make it a possibility.

its trade idea, teams do that you know, sometimes both teams are happy and they make a deal and sometimes one team is not happy and theres no deal

 

[Mediocre Man]

Finding a team with not only matching salaries, but young talent and draft capital that would want an aging superstar hurts my head

 

[Norman Dale]

Herro, Robinson, 1st rd picks in 23, 27, 29, 1st rd pick swaps in 24, 26 & 28 (OKC has their 25 1st rd pick)

 

[DDolla]

Don’t worry Dame, Jody and Joe will try their best to get the best scrubs out there to help you.

 

[HansenYang]

You can't possibly think Mobley and Garland is actually an option, right?!

Agreed. Dame doesn't have quite that much value.

 

[KingSpeed]

The only answer is Mobley/Garland but Cleveland would never do that deal. Mobley is young and has MVP potential.

 

[KingSpeed]

Cleveland would never in a million years under any circumstances give us Mobley for Dame. Not even if Sharpe was thrown in.

DMitch would have to be involved somehow.

 

[Predator]

The best wing player (6’7-6’10) we can get is who I’d want.

 

[Mr. Robot]

simons, thybulle, brown, grant & nurk

play-in team at least, brown is not better than dame obviously, but it would balance the roster and we would get someone else for dame, celtics have really good role players (grant williams, derrick white, marcus smart, malcolm brogdon)

although playmaking would be a bit of an issue (ant looked nice last season when he played like pg insted of sg), but hes not there just yet, we would likely need backup pg

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Dame is going to retire as a Blazer.

Then wait a couple of months and unretire as a Buck or Sixer.

 

[Samuel]

Maxey?

Really, people?

Maxey and Anfernee Simons let’s see how that goes…

 

[maxiep]

I don't know, but it would have to a Durant to the Suns-like return.
