The playoffs exposed even more the fact that the Magic need to improve their offense, and Simons, who is from Orlando, is a great trade candidate for them.

Portland could realize they can compete next season, with Scoot and Sharpe improving, Simons may be the odd man out.

Currently, the Blazers backup guard is Dalano Banton, with this trade, they get Cole Anthony, who is a cheaper backup than Simons, and KCP, a former NBA champion and great defender veteran for this team. With that, they add a 1st rounder in this upcoming draft, which they could use to improve even more their roster.

For the Magic, this trade dont need too much explanation, right?

Projected Rotations: POR: Scoot/Cole Sharpe/KCP Camara/Grant Avdija/Timelord Ayton/Clingan

ORL: Simons/Black Suggs/Jett or Pick 16 Franz/TDS Paolo/Isaac WCJ/Mo Wagner

How does Blazers fans feel about this? Is it enough for Simons?
