Possible PG movement on draft day?

Kyle Lowry to NO for the 10th pick? No

Bledsoe to Portland for the 11? No

 he wants out of houston and with the tenth pick the rockets would be looking at marshall zeller or leornard which id like too c happen marshall in case they cant resign goran or zeller or leonard too fill the c spot 

 If Bledsoe was the 18th pick in a relatively weak draft, why would he be the 11th pick in a stacked draft? You have a flawed logic.

 As a Portland fan, I prefer Lowry to Bledsoe.  If the Blazers could trade #11 and change (Babbitt, Smith, etc.) for Lowry and either #14 or #16 that would be great.

Deron Williams to Dallas.

Nash to Lakers.

Jeremy Lin to Utah.

Each team receiving the PG will say no.  Lowry isn’t worth the 10th pick, Bledsoe isn’t worth the 11th.

Kyle Lowry, aswell as Bledsoe to a lesser degree, are proven players in the NBA. If I could get either of them for the 10th or 11th pick I’d do it in a heart beat.

Extremely doubtful the Clips part with Bledsoe though. He’s their insurance incase Paul walks, he’s on a cheap contract for another few seasons and he’s an amazing up and coming player who will only get better under Pauls guidance.

Lowry is a different story. Any team that gets him is going to pay through the nose for him on his next contract… which is always annoying if it doesn’t pan out. Lowry’s skills are top notch though and for the 10th pick in just about ANY draft, you have to make that deal…if PG is your weakness.

What kind of trade value does everyone think Jrue Holliday has?  

To all Jazz fans, would you be willing to give up Favors for Jrue?  If not, what big man would you trade? 

I am not sold on the first trade because Jack is not sorry enough for you to trade the number 10 pick for someone marginally better.  I think Portland would that second trade and if LAC has Paul locked up than that trade for the 11 pick is not that bad.  Bledsoe would be better than more of the point guards that are coming out now and and Portland could use a solid point who can shoot and Felton is not the long term answer.  LAC could then add depth or get a shooting guard.

 Lowry and the 16th for Jack and the 10th maybe

I think both teams should pull the trigger on both of these trades, here’s why:

Lowry for 10 works for both teams going forward. NO gets an good and improving young guard to pair in the backcourt with EG and a good 1 for AD to start his career off with also. NO needs help so instead of taking another rookie with 10 and taking a risk on what you get production wise from him, Lowry gives you guaranteed action from day 1. He averaged 14, 6, and 4 last year and he’s looking for a change of scenery anyway. Move Jack back into his backup role where he’s better suited. Lowry, EG, Ariza, AD, Mek and a decent bench, doubt they re-sign Kaman. Houston gets rid of a potentail headache in Lowry and get a good pick in a deep draft to build towards the future. They should wise up and trade 14 and 16 to GS for 7 and the Rockets could grab Leonard at 7 and the BPA at 10 with the Hornets pick. Re-sign Dragic and keep it moving forward with nice developing roster of young talent.

Bledsoe for 11 works for both teams also. Bledsoe doesn’t get stuck behind CP3 for the next few years and gets a shot in Portland. Portland also gets a good young improving guard to help lead the team into the future and pair with LA an Batum. Take Beal at 6 and now you have a nice young backcourt to grow together. Move Matthews into the 6th man role left by Crawford or let Beal play behind him until he’s ready to takeover. Batum, LA and Hickson upfront and with picks 40 and 41 possibly find some rotation guys and keep it moving. I like this but this could be kind of funky for the Clippers. Mo has a player option and Chauncey, Nick and Randy are all unrestricted. So that backcourt could go from crowded to empty quick, especially if you give up the only other guard on the books. With that said The Clippers could use the 11th pick to grab either of the 4 guards available. They could have their choice of Lamb, Rivers, Waiters or Ross to groom depending on who Toronto grabs at 8. If Mo doesn’t opt out sign back some of the vets to help the rookie along and continue going.

 I like the Bledsoe to Portland trade. But if im the clippers I would be pushing for the 6th pick instead of the 11th (Partly because you know how much Olshey covets Bledsoe). And to the guy who said why would you trade the 11th pick (in a strong draft) for the 18th pick in a weeker one. That logic makes no sence. Bledsoe has shown people he has serious ability and could be a very good PG if given an expanded role. If you think he is the point guard of your future I would trade that for the 6th pick and say someone like a Harrison Barnes who is good, but id rather have bledsoe if I was the Blazers

If I’m the Clippers no way do I trade for the 11th pick.They have to push for the 6th and only of somehow
Beal is there.Anyone that thinks that Bledsoe isn’t worth it is crazy.He’s a proven starting caliber PG and all these draft picks have the mystery of being busts or never living up to their potential.Really how many draft picks become starters???
Also I would also consult with CP3 and only move Bledsoe if I had an assurance that he wants to be a Clipper.

I like the trade with Bledsoe for 6 or 11 but I can’t see the Blazers giving up 6 in this draft for Bledsoe. I know Olshey loves him and that is the only reason it probably has legs and there’s no guarantee he’d make the deal either. As much I like Bledsoe and as good as I think he will and could be, granted he’s had some good games and balled in the 2012 playoffs. EB is a year off an injury and only played sparingly when healthy and he still has a ton of growing to do also. The fact that there’s not a big difference in talent between 2 and 7 in this draft they may be hesistant to give up 6 for Bledsoe. It’s almost like giving up the number 2 pick for him which I can’t see them doing, 11 just seems more suitable. The only way the Clippers should make this trade is if they are NO DOUBTS whatsoever about CP re-signing. If they can’t him signed long term I wouldn’t dare make this trade. I’ve always thought there was major gamble involved when trading for picks. Regardless of how good it may look on paper it may not pan out and you could be giving up Gold for Fool’s Gold, Vice Versa of even break even. That’s just the nature of the beast.

Just give me minuses and don’t answer my question.
