(counting in the Celtics trade
Bucks get: - Damian Lillard
Blazers get - Malcom Brogdon,Robert Williams, Deandre Ayton, Toumani Camara, 2024 1st round pick 2029 1st round pick 2029 1st-round pick 2028 & 2030 swaps
Suns get - Jusuf Nurkic, Grayson Allen, Nassir Little, Keon Johnson
Celtics get Jrue Holiday
At the time
Bucks (A) They land a superstar while only giving up 1 first round pick their 2nd/3rd best player and a role player
Blazers (C) Only 1 1st for their legendary PG, Ayton is a wild card could be good, Jrue trade was cool they got 2 firsts
Suns (B-) Not bad, Ayton was falling off and they get a much cheaper C whos around the same level as him + getting a sharpshooter in Grayson Allen
Celtics (A) Immediately swoop in to power up their roster, they get a defensive upgrade swapping Smart for Holiday, 2 firsts is a fine price to pay
In Hindsight
Bucks (D) Lillard ends up only being with the Bucks for 2 seasons and 0 playoff series won, Dame didnt do anything wrong its not his fault he tore his achilles but his Bucks tenure will be forgotten by many
Blazers (B+) The only thing that makes it worth it for the Blazers is 1 player, Toumani Camara he became an absolute gem for them on the defensive end, Ayton was disappointing for them and we have no idea if the draft picks will hit but for now they got 1 good gem for Dame
Suns (C) Nurk wasnt good for them and got traded in a deal for a better center, they ended up trading an all defensive center when they viewed him as throw in so that sucks. grayson has been good so they got that as a positive but overall bleh
Celtics (A) Jrue did exactly what they needed him to do, defensive menace helped the team win a title and they later traded him back to Portland for way more then what he's worth
