The Blazers have made a trade the past few years before or during the draft so I'll keep with that tradition and say that I'm willing to make a deal to move up into the top 9 or I would be willing to move down or out of the draft if the right trade came along. I would even trade the pick to a team that is keeping it's top 5 pick if the deal is good.
I am looking for a more solid PG and am willing to trade any of my PG's (Blake, Jack), Channing Frye, Martell Webster, and possibly Lamarcus Aldridge if the deal is worthy. Untouchables are Roy & Oden with Outlaw also a likely untouchable. |

The Heat are also interested in making a trade. I'm willing to get rid of anybody except Beasley, D-Wade is close to untouchable but not for the right price

Hey Balta, since this was your idea, what do you think about trades? I think it would just be easier if we just solely did a draft rather than dealing with trades, but I guess trading would make it more interesting...

It was more fun that way. |

The Sonics are up, and Slav is out of town, so someone needs to step up and make that pick.

ESPN's Chad Ford is reporting on a potential deal. The L.A. Clippers will trade Elton Brand and Shaun Livingston to the Portland Trailblazers for LaMarcus Aldridge, Jarrett Jack, Martell Webster, and the expiring contract of Raef Lafrentz. Due to trade restrictions on both of the players on the Clippers, the deal can not be approved by the league until after the July 1 deadline, but it appears that the deal does work as written and will be going down when it is allowed. (IT is however entirely possible for either side to back out before the draft ends because of the Clippers' players trade restrictions)

I'm very surprised by this trade. Portland seems to be giving up way too much. Aldridge put up #'s last year that were very close to Brand's averages, and he's younger. Not sure why they'd trade him. Plus, Livingston is no guarantee to ever be the same after that injury. Just not sure what the Blazers are doing here... As for my pick, with the 5th pick in the 2008 draft, the Memphis Grizzlies select Kevin Love, PF, UCLA |

Not so sure why they're gone now. Anyway, where the heck is dasox24? idk when I'll be able to make my pick if he picks later. Oh well, we've got a while. |
