    The game would ya game, somewhat realistic ideas

    would you trade any one of the following 4 players (Toumani, Scoot, Sharpe or Dani) plus our 1st pick in this years draft for the 2nd or 3rd pick in this years draft.

    Yeah, I would. Essentially you would be trading either Scoot or Camara for the 2nd pick, and our pick for the 3rd. The only catch is if we end up with the #1 pick. That would be painful

    No, it's Scoot or Camara + our first (8th atm) for 2 OR 3.

    Oops.

    I assume the trade would be after the draft lottery? Depends on where we end. If we get the 4th pick I would say no right now.
    I kind of like Jakucionis.

    Possibly, but of the 4 to build around id rather build around toumani. Preference, I understand.

    Depends where our pick is. If it's #4 then no. If it's #13 probably

    Kind of interesting what order people would rank these 4 Blazers. All have moments but also concerns or limitations.

    I would not. For the #1 pick, I would trade Deni plus our pick if it’s not #1.

    None of those players are close to being #1 options on a good team. This draft could have multiple. We aren't anywhere close to a contender. Sooooo.

    Yes. I'd do that deal all day.

    We want trades that'd get us the #1 pick, not the #11 pick.

    Read my post. I said I’d trade Deni and our pick for the #1 pick. The “I would not” answered the original question if I’d do it for the #2 pick.

    Just don't win anymore for the rest of the season, maybe we get lucky with a top 3 pick

    If there's a way to get us Ace Bailey then yeah I'd give up any one of those four guys you listed to move up from wherever we are to get him. I mean I'd try future picks first but if the demand from whoever is sitting at 2 is one of those four guys and our pick to jump up for Bailey, I would do it. It would hurt because I like all four guys but damn I really like a lot of the different things Bailey can do.
