The TrailBlazers get Blake Griffin

A third star will have them a very good chance to seriously contend for a championship. Griffin i believe will fit in perfectly with this Blazers group. Giving up 2 picks could be really worth it. Then try to sign Jonathon Simmons to create more depth

Damian Lillard/Simons
CJ McCollum/Simmons/Hezonja
Rodney Hood/Little/Hoard
Blake Griffin/Tolliver
Hassan Whiteside/Gasol/Nurkic

The Pistons get Danilo Gallinari, Zach Collins, Kent Bazemore, 1st round pick Blazers & 2nd round pick Blazers

Blake Griffin has been huge for them but let's be honest, they are going nowhere with him. They get 2 expiring deals on this trade and a young big for the future. And what they get here can put them on the same place as they were with Blake. Maybe 7th or 8th spot in the east.

Derrick Rose/Galloway/Thomas
Luke Kennard/Bazemore/Brown
Danilo Gallinari/Snell
Zach Collins/Morris
Andre Drummond/Maker/Wood

The Thunder get Reggie Jackson, Skal Labbisiere & 1st round pick Blazers

They have many point guard so maybe a better choice is to just waive Jackson. And they get a pick out of Gallinari

Chris Paul/Schroeder
Shai G.Alexander/Diallo/Nader
Terrance Ferguson/Roberson/Burton
Darius Bazley/Labbisiere
Steven Adams/Noel/Muscala

What do you guys think is needed to be change with this proposal to make it better?

Portland overpaying.

I'm not sure why OKC is in this trade. If Detroit is trading Blake, they're rebuilding, not giving up a first for Gallo.

I'm not sure how I'd rebuild this, but maybe something like:

Portland gets Griffin, Gallinari, Kennard
Detroit gets Whiteside, Simons, Patterson, two firsts from Portland
OKC gets Bazemore, Little, Skal

Portland gets really good.
Detroit gets three really good assets and expiring contracts.
OKC cuts their salary by 5 mil and gets a decent prospect.

The pieces don’t feel completely right for any of the three teams. Just slightly off for each.
And the necessary tweeks for all of them would just make it a completely different deal.
