    After reading this, it seems that since the draft picks for this year will be such valuable financial assets, maybe our trade deadline trades should be for another draft pick; another asset to be used if Olshey can find a trade for a difference-maker.
    By the way BE published a counter argument to this, but the guy assumed we would want to tank for TWO years (in order to never have to give the pick up) and I don't think any of us are proposing that. http://www.blazersedge.com/2016/1/8...rs-2016-nba-draft-western-conference-playoffs

    It looks like Dragan Bender has fallen a bit, and unless he has some Porzingas type workouts, he might be in our range. There's Sabonis too. If only we could get in the top three and get one of those top sfs though...
