If blazers want to win a chip , they gotta trade these 2 , there not the answer, so rockets take on there contract to free up space for Portland while getting the 3rd pick , blazers can still package the 4th pick to try & get a star , or sign someone in FA & just trade back for more picks
As for the rockets idk if there rebuilding or tryna get superstars , but i would just try to get as many picks as possible if they are tryna get a star player , or draft scoot or miller & stop talking about james harden or jaylen brown
