    Btw this is the biggest waste of a thread. We think about trades more than Olshey does.

    Dallas values Barnes. They already got a lot of little solid rotation pieces. I just dont see why they'd do it at all.

    How much longer will Anthony Davis tolerate losing in NO?

    CJ/Zach/Aminu/Simons for AD and E'tuawn Moore works. Throw in two more first rounders from 19/21.

    Boston counters with Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, Marcus Morris, SACs 2019 unprotected 1sts, and a collection of their various firsts.

    Outbid.

    Boston has enough assets to outbid every team for any player if they want.

    Danny Ainge is the sh*t!

    Could we get both Beal and Porter? Or would that just bring all of WA's problems to Portland?

    Lol you think Neil is gonna trade Zach AND CJ, whatrya nuts?

    The most realistic target in Washington imo is Oubre. He could probably be had for a first, especially if you’re not sending money back. But I don’t even see the point of that. Just one more guy to stand around and watch CJ/Dame.

    This is a trade ideas thread. Consideration of what Neil would actually do would result in this thread remaining blank.

    For this thread, all I'm interested in is: a) would the other team consider it, and; b) could it make the Blazers better.

    I just wish Neil would take some risks. This current setup is not going anywhere.

    I'm of the opinion that Wall is the main problem there. They were actually playing decent team ball without him when he got hurt (was that last year?).

    Beal is going to get back a better return than that though. Plus that is a lot of both immediate and long term salary to take on given the current ownership situation so it might be a case where neither team would go for it.

    How about getting a g league team to start? I just don’t understand why a team that isn’t a free agent destination and has limited assets wouldn’t take advantage of every avenue of finding talent at their disposal.

    What do you think Beal will fetch? He and CJ are basically the same guy statistically.

    Jaylen Brown has as much trade value as CJ, and makes more sense for a rebuilding team. You're talking about a Sacremento pick that should be top 8, and could be top 3, as well as more/better picks that BOS could attach.

    Again, fans overrate CJs trade value (most of whom bash CJ as a player)...

    I don't think Beal and CJ are the same at all, even if stats show it. Beal is a little taller and only 25 which is almost 2 years younger than CJ. They both have advantages over the other one but one of the big things holding Beal back was injuries and he seems to be better the last couple years with that.

    Not that cbssports is in the know but they had a couple of trade ideas for Beal:

    Zhaire Smith, Wilson Chandler, Markelle Fultz, and Miami's unprotected 2021 1st rounder from Philly.

    Josh Richardson, Tyler Johnson, and a 2019 1st from Miami.

    So it looks like a good young player and a decent 1st round pick at the very least was what I was thinking.

    Monk, Bridges, Picks, and salary filler isn't that bad. I wouldn't do it if I was Washington but that isn't terrible.

    I'm guessing they'd have to take on Nic's or Biyombo's contract too to match $. That makes it a lot worse.

    Zach’s ceiling is higher than Browns. Brown hasn’t really shown potential to be anything more than a role player.
