Blazers dump salary

Blazers/Knicks

Turner, Harkless and 15th pick for O'Quinn, Kuzminskas, Randle and 44th pick.

Blazers/Nets

Crabbe, Ezeli and 20th pick for McDaniels and future 2nd rounder.

Blazers/76ers

Leonard and 26th pick for Stauskas.

Lineup:

Lillard/Napier/Randle
McCollum/Stauskas/Connaughton
Aminu/McDaniels/Layman
Vonleh/Kuzminskas/Lessort(44th)
Nurkic/O'Quinn/Davis

That roster makes 90 million in salaries leaving Portland with enough cap to sign another free agent.

Elezi's already been cut free by Portland. Don't see the Sixers wanting another back up big, and I don't know if the Blazers are looking to deal away so much salary that they can go sign an FA, it looks like theym're just trying to avoid paying the tax.

In a microcausim, deals one and two are fine, I'm just not sure Blazers make all three.

Salaries don't match the way you prpose the trade
-Cut Harkless from the first deal.
-Change turner and Crabbe destination because first of all you can't trade crabbe to nets and secondly because you exclude harkless from the deal you must give knicks a better trade asset than turner.
-Knicks must trade a contract like L. Thomas (probably to the nets so the salaries work.
Lillard/ Bayless/ Nappier
Mccollum/ Stauskas/ Quartermann
Harkless/ Kuzminskas/ mcDaniels
Aminu/ Vonleh/ Davis
Nurkic/ Oquinn/ 44th.

Agree with triangle. Individually, the deals make sense. All together, Portland guts their bench and moves all 3 firsts for essentially nothing.

Stauskas is a FA.

No, he is not. He is on a 4th year of his rookie scale contract next season.

This wouldn't help the blazers get better. All it does is wreck the team to try to save money and sign a free agent who won't come here (example last season) .
