I saw a trade by u/huruh912, and really liked it but wanted to adapt it slightly.

Blazers

If Portland are to rebuild, this is a way of rebuilding the roster whilst maintaining their depth and key pieces without sacrificing their future as well - it gives the roster a chance to be much better, and still allows Portland to rebuild in years to come.

I think this trade is more sustainable than others that I’ve seen compared to others. For example:

  • If they trade for Siakam, he could easily just leave the next summer in FA

  • Brooklyn don’t have much reason to trade Bridges, and are more likely to want to be competitive and use their picks acquired

Following this trade I’d sign Derick Lively as a backup centre. To complete the roster, I’d have Portland then sign a backup PG like Dennis Schroeder. Overall, Portland would have tremendous depth and a genuinely well rounded starting lineup.

Raptors

Raptors can use pick 3 to likely pick up Brandon Miller who can give them elite shooting, something they desperately need. What they then do with Siakam is their choice but with the addition Miller, the Raps can work with their amazing young core.
