What Would Have to be Included in a LaVine Trade to Make it Acceptable?

They own Portland's 2025 Lotto protected pick that remains Lotto protected til 2028 and they owe their 2025 top ten protected

Would it be Lavine/Portland pick for Collins/Clarkson?

The Portland pick isn't very valuable given it turns into a 2028 second if it isn't conveyed within the next 4 drafts, but is Portland going to be that bad that long? Would they be willing to put Ayo in? Ayo would definitely send it over the top for me.

For me it is just the wrong direction to go but if we were to go that route then I want that blazers pick. Normally I would want Ayo but then we are looking at a minutes crunch in the backcourt which I don't want. I really want to see Sensabaugh get a consistent 20+ minutes a game this year to see what he can do.

They also have this year's 11th pick, as long as we wait for the draft to happen.

Adding in a swap of 29/32 and 11 is the main thing I can see. It feels like an overpay from the bulls but that’s what I’d require.

Ayo is potentially the next Caruso and you care about a minutes crunch? Lmfao

I’d imagine the trade of Caruso means they want to keep Ayo. I think they are more likely to include draft capital than good young players… just based on the fact they got no picks in the Caruso deal and had opportunities to do so the last couple years.

I'm sure they want to too, but I don't really care what they want if I'm Ainge. They want to pay LaVine or not?

I mean the Jazz may be in a position where we are the only team that is willing to take LaVine, dont be soft. Don't repeat the Collins mistake

 

[Elizah Huge]

I would take any one of these:

Portland’s top-14 protected 1st

29/32 for 11 swap

Pick swap in 2026 or 2028

Ayo Dosunmu

I’d prefer getting 11, then probably Ayo, then the pick swap but I’d settle for Portland’s first if I had to.

Nothing makes it acceptable. The guy plays losing basketball, will come in dick swinging, is oft-injured, and will end up wanting way too much money considering all that. Add in he probably sucks as a leader and it’s a no-brainer no.

Giddey is probably going to put up stupid stats so he is going to get paid next year. And they may have to overpay to keep Williams. They would definitely have to overpay to keep DDR. Really curious to what their plan is if there is a plan
