This is the best trade proposal I can come up with. I’m at my limits. I have attempted to listen to other Fanspo users. I have not succeeded in making everyone happy. However, based on the constructive feedback I have received, I think this can work. Now, you tell me #RipCity. Is this proposal good enough for you?

I think the 3rd pick should bring a return better than DeRozan and Suggs. I mean, they are fine players but I’d rather just keep the pick. Everyone else in this trade is ‘meh’. If this is our big move of the off-season, I think Dame (and most of the fanbase) would be pretty disappointed.
Seems like a massive overpay for us. Derozan doesn’t really solve any of our problems and the magic guys have not proven that they can contribute to a good team.
Edit: after looking this over more, yeah this would be a major disaster for Portland. 2 firsts, one of which is third overall, and 2 seconds is way too much for Derozan and bench players
Derosan doesn’t change anything for this team. He has never impacted a team the way Portland needs. Portland needs an answer at forward. If your going to trade for old over the hill player with questionable health I’ll take PG. also there are so many assets flying around for such mediocre returns. Trades like this are why I’m so sure it’s time to rebuild. Appreciate the effort but I don’t understand how this accomplishes goals.
Ugh. No.
Use the pick. Derozan is decent but declining and not nearly the kind of star Dame needs to have a shot. This is an 8th seed kind of roster, IMO.
I appreciate your commitment here. Just out of curiousity, why is the magic involved in this? Are you a magic fan? I feel like Suggs is not the kind of player the blazers want right now
