Pretty much the only way a Lillard to Toronto trade works is with a 3rd team taking Siakam. Portland doesn't want Trent Jr back or OG on his contract. Plus that's giving up way too much for Lillard to give up 3 valuable players plus picks. Siakam is the only big enough contract and is worth enough to make the trade happen. Plus Toronto can fill his role with their plerethera of PFs. If Siakam can get 3 1st round picks plus 2 more from Toronto that should be enough for Lillard and beat out Miami.

I've soured a bit on Siakam but I would still consider him for the Jazz as a 3rd team. But I think he might not be a great fit and might cost too much here. I guess Collins and THT works for salary, I'm not sure I would give up enough picks though with an expiring deal. It's too risky.

I will say this:

• Boston has access to all their picks and a top 4 GSW protected pick
• Robert Williams is a great fit with their current team as a young upcoming center who is on a great contract for the next 3 seasons
• Jordan Walsh is interesting as a prospect after having a much better than anticipated SL.

Outside of that, how do you find a place for Brogdon? Would the Celtics include Horford to a 3rd team?

Brogdon and Williams go to Phoenix for Ayton… Portland gets Ayton.

They can cobble together the salary without Trent Jr. The deal will also be a 3/4/5 team deal so will easily find a home for Trent. I think Raps know they don’t want to pay OG and he won’t want to stay with them if he has similar money offers. Whether or not they get Dame teams should be calling on OG.

Seems like Brogdon contract might be too rich for Phoenix, but I guess Williams deal would make up for that.

Seems like the medical would make PHX hesitant

Celtics picks are pretty bad assets tho, even unprotected. I just don't see them being bad as long as they have Tatum

With as much as they have pushed in already I’d guess those picks have some volatility… any pick more than two years in the future is tough to project how good or bad it will be. 24/26/28/30… 2 of those have pretty high volatility. Tatum is also racking up a ton of minutes early in his career so never know when he might get hit by injury bug.

They could do that. OG might be available and not sticking around. Siakam is in his final year as well, I don't think he sticks around either unless they over pay and I don't really see Toronto doing that. Either way Lillard or not Toronto needs to make some big moves this year.

I guess anything has volatility, but the Boston Celtics with Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown under long term deala are near the bottom of the list.

Both players just played in the same context and THT outplayed him while being 7 years younger....

Brother look at the games
And again, factor in Dunn played the final 3 and THT did not. Those would have been triple double games for THT.
