Portland Looking To Move Up

[Pugz]

The Blazers are "nosing around" to see if they can trade up from their 24th pick and choose Davidson's Stephen Curry.

Curry is a point guard whose main weapon is his jumper. Therefore the thinking is that he would be a good fit next to a ball-handling wing such as Brandon Roy.

Wonder if they would throw Bayless in a deal, because if they are looking for a new PG after just drafting him, it doesn't seem like they have much hope for him.

Yeah, that'd be my guess. No sense in keeping basically the same type of player. Although I do like Bayless better.

Portland have to make some deal on trade night, its their organisation's motto lol

If they trade bayless to get curry. They will be sick in 5 years. Bayless will be better than curry. And I believe he is better now.

Bayless for Curry would be dumb. I think Blazers are going to some mastermind trade, where they end up getting Curry without moving Bayless, LaMarcus, Batum, GO or Roy. Is it me, or do I see them considering moving Blake in a package to get him?

They better not, Stevie is the man and he helps that team A TON.
