Favors to the Blazers
He's gonna be a FA, yall blew all your money on Meyers Leonard and Allen Crabbe
The Sixers gotta be praying they can get Fultz in the draft.
some combination ofHe still has 2 years on his contract. Who you giving up for him?
Crabbe, plumlee, vonleh and maybe a 1st
Not sure the Jazz do it; nor should you
Crabbe is overpaid for what he does, Plum plays the same position as Gobert and is older and Vonleh raw as hell. That 1st might be tempting tho

man I did the logistics and the outlook is horrible if we don't get some rim protectionI'm not necessarily mad at signing crabbe or Leonard, if we had a decent rim protector / post up center and a decent back up.
But paying them just makes it harder to potentially deal trades as well....
Cacs in Portland love Meyers so moving him isn't even an option. They love their white bball players.
Crabbe and harkless are the only sellable assets. But crabbe is overpriced / not living up,to potential / limited by being in the shadow of CJ / Dame. And harkless has been balling his ass off, so I wouldn't dare pull the trigger on Duke...
No one is paying for Davis, Plumlee or Vonleh but these guys are gone by next season.
My biggest fear is watching the Blazers sign Greg Monroe

Crabbe and a first for Nerlens, can't think of a lot else out there that can get you a rim protector. There's pretty much no other rim protectors on the market, maybe John Henson but I can't think of much that you have to offer the Bucks.
The Bucks need some shooting and the Blazers' best shooters are Dame, CJ & Harkless. The 1st two are off limits and I don't think the Blazers are offering Harkless for a rotation guy who's only real value is rim protection (he's still elite in that area tho)

The Bucks have $102 million in salary this season and $115 million next season, they aren't going to tie up money in a dude that will ultimately back up Middleton, when they already have a backup for him in Snell. Only way they'd do that is if they could get the Blazers to take Henson/Monroe.
When you think about it, the Blazers don't got assets ike that since I don't see them moving CJ/Dame. Not sure about Monroe, he doesn't offer what the Blazers are looking for and he has a 17M player option next season.
The Bucks don't really need Crabbe, and he'd be making more than Middleton, you can't justify paying a backup more than a guy you're trying to have as your core. Only way they do that is if they find out Middleton won't be the same again, which wouldn't be a shock since his hamstring tear was supposedly off the bone. The Sixers have a hole at the 2 though, Henderson isn't a long term solution and Luwawu won't be ready for a another few years. He'd be locked in with the Sixers who could use a 2 that can shoot and he's young enough that he'll grow with their core.
Crabbe + 1st for Noel makes a lot of sense for the Blazers (assuming they can keep Noel). I feel like the 76ers can get much more, but not if they keep dragging this out.
From who though? All the teams that need centers don't have what they need, or will lowball them (Celtics). The Blazers seem like the best option for a trade.
Clarkson + T-Rob and a 2nd
They have our 1st
I'd take Crabbe over Clarkson, not that he's a better player, but just because he's shown he can play off the ball which is what they're going to need when the Aussie makes his debut. Plus, why would they help you improve your draft position with Noel

I'm joking, but if we could flip Clarkson for a rim protector/rebounding big, I'd be in heaven
Seems strange they'd trade one of the best defensive young bigs for a an overpaid guard (who isn't al that at shooting) and a late lottery/1st round pick. But they may be losing Noel this offseason anyway
