As a Portland fan I would accept trading McCollum for Issac but I am not wild about Fournier next to Lillard. Detroit is a team that could use his offense though and Portland could use a 3 and D SG like Avery Bradley.Fournier + Isaac for McCollum + Swanigan
Why for Portland?
- Keep salaries under control
- Fournier a good fit as a 2nd/3rd option next to Dame
- High upside player in Isaac
Why for Orlando?
- Perfect fit as go to offensive player / #1 option
- Less upside with Swanigan, but a better roster compatibility with Gordon in the mix
- They get to keep their Top 5/10 pick this year
