Blazers Recieve: Jalen Suggs Magic Recieve: Jrue Holiday
The Magic do this to keep their team defense while adding a bona fide playoff performer, someone who shoots 37% from 3 while in this playoffs suggs struggled from the triple, and he adds the defense they lose in suggs
Magic are going for win now while the east is still weaker than the west
Jrue holiday adds a scoring punch with 16 a night and a presence that suggs just didnt have on the facilitating side of things
The blazers say yes because they can go back to tanking
They know this team has talent and depth but its not good enough to go and get a chip right now in a stacked west
After getting bounced by a injured spurs team in 5 they should know their limits and get younger now, fits the west's timeliness so they aren't completely on a time crunch to win before they lose someone to retirement or regression
And down the line they can use this stacked team to raise their next star and become actual contenders
Disagree or Agree? Tell me why aswell im relatively nee to basketball especially the gm side of things
