    Clingan/ Bronny?........vice versa maybe?......Doubt it......
    Clingan gone/ Bronny still around?.......Gamble anyway......
    Bronny/ Edey?........vice versa maybe?......... HUGE GAMBLE?..........doubt it happens?...........
    Amen / Green/ Segun / Jalen Green / Eason /Cam / Smith Jr. / 7&14 pick (if ?/ Bronny or Bronny / ? )............

    Then...............Maybe?.........

    Lebron...........?

    Maybe? /.........OR No go?........PASS?.....

    Let's discuss.......if we want HIM/ THEM / or THIS anyway..............?

    PROBABLY seriously bad ass shooting coaches needed at this point?.........and let's PRAY it even helps anyway.............

    Yet?............Gambles?.........

    Still?..........Payoffs?............

    Just wondering what could transpire if these players are available / and these are REAL options that we didn't expect NOW or for the FUTURE?.............

    Thoughts?

    Cam Whitmore/ Amen Thompson?............oh.....got them both?........
    Again?......Clingan/ Sheppard?......or.....different?...........
    Who Knows at 3?....or at 7 or 14?...........
    Unless Sarr/ Risacher available.....MOOT POINT.
    Otherwise......
    Possibilities seem endless.......
    Lebron is probably not an option and Bronny is a stretch........
    Yet.......
    conjecturing
    1. form an opinion or supposition about (something) on the basis of incomplete information.

    If you think Bronny or Edey are worth taking at 7 then it is hard to take you seriously.

    Also, is there a thread to discuss trades and/or one for the 3rd pick already?

    Don't want LeBron, why would I want his steroid taking, walking cardiac arrest,
    waiting to happen (again), spoiled brat son?

    Doubt Portland would trade two possible rotation players for a debatable slightly
    better ( one ) rotational player. But if they did:
    #7) Dalton Knecht (SG/SF)

    #14) Devin Carter (PG/SG)
    or
    #14) Kel'el Ware ( C )
    or
    #14) Zach Edey (C)


    Trade: Dillon Brooks, Tate, Jeff Green, Steven Adams
    Free Agents lost: Bullock, Boban, Aaron Holiday
    Free Agents gained: Malik Beasley, Jalen Smith

    Roster (24/25):
    1) Van Vleet............Amen Thompson
    2) Jalen Green........(Malik Beasley)../....[ #14 pick Devin Carter? ]
    3) Cam Whitmore....[ #7 pick Dalton Knecht ]
    4) Jabari Smith........Tari Eason
    5) Sengun.................(Jalen Smith)...Jock Landale / [ #14 pick Kel'el Ware? or ?Zach Edey? ]

    What would be the consensus opinion on CF if someone wrote - " Another typical black dude who can jump at #3". Just curious.
