What 'elite small forward' do you think the Blazers are eyeing? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/7DfM7zhUTK
Blazers come out saying they would trade their pick for an "elite small forward". Then last week Eric Pincus of Bleacher Report comes out with his article about what teams who would need to face Salary Cap implications in the future under the new CBA.

Let me know what your trade ideas will be.
