Hi Torey and Eric, i followed you for a long time now, and I know this may be additional work on your end, but i know you are passionate for basketball and RipCIty which I am too. On top of that, I am also passionate about my fellow Filipino, Kai Sotto. I know he's not NBA Star nor role player caliber yet but I think he has potential to be at least a "prospect" or a roster filler to take a flyer on. Can you please check him out? Not to make an entire vid of him or something, but consider him? Thank you so much.

I think Jaylin Williams and Christian Braun go higher and Hardy will probably be a FRP as a boom or bust pick but other than that, good mock👍🏼
I also find interesting that you took Mathurin for the Blazers even though Murray is still available since 70% of the Blazers fans would definitely pick Murray if we keep the pick and he‘s still available. I‘m not really a Keegan fan so I would prefer Bennedict too

I think dyson daniels at 6 is too high to be his promise. I think its either new orleans or the wizards. Maybe the knicks. But I dont see why a promise would need to be made at 6 considering no one has him as a top 5 pick.

No way mavs take a guard. They got huge holes at pf and c. Either they pick that or a big sf, since they cant really have dfs/ bullock play 40min + there. If they keep the pick at all that is. In no world mavs can take a guard with the glut they got there

As a Magic fan, don’t pay attention to any “rumors” who the Magic will pick. You won’t know until the draft chime sounds. Instead pay attention to Weltmans draft history, he loves long tall high upside players which makes me think he’s taking Chet

Also Jovic for the bulls just does not make sense fit or need wise.

Gotta pick Keegan if he slides to us. He has just as much upside as others. His body isn’t fully developed, he’s working on his off the dribble package, his shot looks amazing, and with proven experience running a college team’s offense he’s ready to play right away.

Hey guys, wanted to start off with saying I love your channel and content. Much appreciated. So I wanted you guys to think of these offseason moves. We probably will get Jerami Grant, for bledsoe and 1st pick. and then secondary move of winslow and didi for Royce Oneal, resign joe ingles ant and nurk, sign demarcus cousin for vet min and eubanks, and sign ricky rubio so your looking at a STARTING 5 - Dame, ant, royce, grant, nurkic BENCH- rubio, hart, little, ingles, cousins

I’d be more than happy with Mathurin. I think he has star potential and will be an outstanding fit next to Dame, Ant, Hart, & Nas in Billups system. Koloko at #36 would be a dream come true. Wendell Moore would be the icing on the cake. If it plays out like this for us we win this draft and we’ll be a lot better than ppl think and a lot sooner.

Pistons aren't looking to get rid of Jerami's salary. Weaver is close to Jerami. He's a good player on a good (expiring) contract and they can easily resign him if they need to. They have a ton of cap space, so it's not an issue. That's why a trade didn't already happen at the last deadline.
Rje James 1 week ago
A possible way to salvage will be if we can get grant for 2025 first and maybe a second pick. Then use the 7 pick and a an asset or two and get ayton in a sign and trade. I honestly don't think the blazers are trading the 7 for grant that would be silly. If they can't get grant for the 2025 1st and an additional 2nd then package that for the best available forward.

Trying to think of trades that make sense: Do you think it is possible to trade the draft rights of Jalen Duren (taken 7th), to the Hornets for the 13th pick, and Cody Martin ?

We could then use the 13th pick to reach back and draft Mark Williams from DUKE. That way we get a decent 3 and D player as well as a back up center.
Cody Martin fits into our MLE. So then we still might be able to trade for Jerami Grant.

You just should never draft a player based on their so called "upside" if they don't have the skills to back it up. You are going to judge his skills based on workout videos and high school highlights which means nothing, there is a lot of good high school players who didn't pan out. Kevin Knox has a lot of upside, he was one of the best high school players before he was recruited to Kentucky. He spent one year in Kentucky and look how he turned out. Yeah he would be a development project, but are you seriously going to waste a top 6 draft pick on a development project? If we have the #4 pick we draft Keegan Murrary.

Blazers not going to gut their team and renounce contracts to get under the cap for Zach Lavine. A 27 year old Lebron James yes but that's too much for Lavine. Given the state of free agency if the Blazers do have an interest in LaVine it's going to be in the form of sign and trade perhaps a three team trade.

Dude, there is absolutely no way Dame is gonna be content with a guy like Grant as his +2. The only reason he isn't demanding a trade is because he trusts the Blazers to swing big and pursue players of Lavines caliber. Not saying it will happen, just that it's what Dame expects. Maybe you are just hoping the Blazers deal Dame and begin a rebuild in earnest. That's fine and all, but if they don't go that route, they will absolutely be pursuing a player like Lavine. BTW comparing CJ to Zach is absurd.

Zach is definitely more of a off gaurd and the defensive problems is more team base then Zach he can sit in the chair and defend well but bulls was always built as a young team that can present more of a offensive threat then a balanced attack


Slightly disrespectful saying CJ and Zach are similar if your all so including where they both do most of there damage but the similarities end with they can score

Thomas Bryant would be a way better fit than Zach Lavine, and Bryant is an UFA, but Washington does have his bird rights. Bryant is a player I would like on the blazers, especially if we somehow don't draft a PF in this years draft, but we probably will draft a PF. We have options to plugging holes in the forward spot. We can draft Holmgren, we can draft Murray, we can trade our lottery pick for multiple 1st rd picks and acquire Grant, we can sign Thomas Bryant, etc.

It's not hard for us to be contenders next season.

Exactly what I needed to hear from who I needed to hear it from. Good look for bringing clarity to this situation/rumor. I felt like it was BS but with JC behind the wheel it’s hard to know. Based on what u pointed out tho, it’s safe to say this will never happen. U know I’m not team Grant either but he’s a far better fit than ZL, cheaper, at a position of need, defends, and has no knee issues.

I could definitely see orlando possibly moving on from him if they get a top 3 pick. We need to take advantage of issacs lower value this year while we can. Dude is a future DPOTY with some offensive potential that billups could maybe help unlock.

If Keon works all summer & gains more muscle & fine tunes his game, he may actually
Help this team next year , w/ size & skill & youth, that ALL teams seem to need for success now adays!!! ;

Ant,.. Nassir,... Keon,.. Watford,... G. Brown
ALL these guys have a 'chance' to fill a spot & major role just like
'anthony edwards,.. Ja morant,.. maxey,.. mobley & darius garland
"surprised" everybody & took over for their teams!!! ;

Wendell Carter Jr and (I don't even see why the Magic do this). Any trade involving Grant will start with the Blazers lottery pick pick. I don't understand why this is so hard for you guys. Lillard has made it clear he wants Grant. Like the Ivey selection even though with your trade Detroit has literally no starting PF to fill the hole you created. By the way Detroit will be $30M under the CAP this off season they don't CAP space they need more talent. Try again.

Your hypothetical Grant trade would not pass muster with the Pistons. The Pistons would have no interest in WCJ----he checks no boxes for the roster---as the chief return in a trade for Grant, whom they've made clear they'd rather keep than trade away for a poor return. WCJ is a poor return. Isaiah Stewart is a better defender and will very possibly be a better shooter. His cardinal flaw is that he cannot play on the roll with Cade Cunningham, as his combination of being somewhat undersized and a poor leaper renders him unable to serve well in that role. WCJ, who is all of one and a half inches taller and likewise plays below the rim, would not be a substantive improvement, and he would be a defensive downgrade upon Stewart to boot. And even in a vacuum, WCJ's value falls substantially short of that of a forward who can average 20 PPG, create a good deal of his own offense, and play high-level defense. The fact that the Pistons would also be shipping out Olynyk---a decent role player who could garner the team a modest return at the deadline---would simply make this deal even more lopsided.

This trade scenario amounts to the Pistons being taken to the cleaners so that the Blazers can gain themselves a third option. I see that you've also suggested Isaac as an option; Grant's value drastically outstrips that of a terribly injury-prone player who has not suited up for a single game over the past two seasons. As with any team, the Pistons would not go out of their way to improve other rosters at the cost of their own.

Another note about Grant: there's no prospect that he'd receive the max, which would begin at $36.6 million in his first season for a player with his level of experience. By all accounts (including his own), he'd be willing to accept a four-year extension which would pay him $25 million in the first season of his new contract. That's a fair rate these days for a player of his caliber.

Weaver has said the only way that he trades Grant is if the offer blows him away. Brooklyn's 17th isn't going to get that done. And then to take on Bledsoe. Pass.

I know there was a rumor when it looked like the Blazers might get the New Orleans pick, but I think the idea was that the Blazers would absorb a majority of Grant's contract into their trade exception stemming from the McCollom move. Thus the Pistons would not be taking salary back.

Pick 13 and no salary back is so much better than 17 and Bledsoe's $19 M. The Pistons will certainly get better offers while preserving their cap space. And the Pistons aren't taking Keon Johnson and an end of first round pick three years out. That's just silly.

Issac is a future DPOTY that can help this team win a championship. There’s only 3 or 4 guys like him in this league who can be effective guarding all 5 positions. Also shows some potential offensively. I think orlando could part ways with him this summer.

Hey Torey I think Carter's inability to stay on the floor diminishes his trade value a bit... just don't see Toronto parting with OG for him or for Turner. I like the way you're thinkin though.

I love these all from Portland’s perspective. My only questions come with how much value Toronto places on OG. I personally don’t think they’d value Turner anywhere near OG. But Carter Jr or a lottery pick+Holmes could realistically be similar value so I like those options a lot and could see why Orlando/Sac so those too.

Follow-up question: if we’re targeting Sharpe here, would you then be willing to shop Hart for a high-level rotation wing? I’d like to see Sharpe getting more minutes off the bench, and this would allow him to play (what I believe to be) his best position as a lengthy guard, and perhaps Hart has a lot of value after what he did early in the tank

Thanks for all the great content!

The trades are to complicated and will probably never happen. Don’t see how Toronto will trade Anunoby for Turner basically.

I love the idea of Anunoby in general though, but that’s not going to happen without giving away our lottery pick.

If it falls in that 4 to 8 range, I would call Ujiri and ask if he does take that pick for Anunoby. Of course you can adjust with a second here and there, but that is a legit framework IMO.

Then, I would call the Pistons for Grant and offer the Bucks Pick + Keon. Would prefer keeping Keon and giving away seconds instead, but I would make the sacrifice if I could get Anunoby AND Grant.

That leaves us with a pretty dope starting lineup of Dame, Ant, OG, Grant and Nurk to go with a exciting bench of Hart, Nas, Watford and Winslow.

There is also that MLE which we could use for a good backup Center. Jalen Smith is one name, but I prefer Hartenstein, who was the best backup center in the league last season IMO.

Extracting this much value out of what we have, even if we move into the top 2, would take Cronin morphing from a dumptruck to a Jerry West/Pat Riley level GM. If by some crazy miracle we were able to acquire Sharpe, Grant, & OG plus sign Jalen Smith without giving up Nas that would be a huge win although my 1st choice would be to go young and build through the draft. Sumth’n like, trade down and take Jabari & Dieng or Sharpe. Trade Nurk for a mid 20’s 1st and expiring and take Koloko. With Dame & Billups leading we should be damn good pretty quickly. I don’t see any value in Olynyk and wouldn’t want him unless he’s a 3rd string C, and probably not even then.
