I recently posted this in another thread and it got me thinking:
NYG wrote:Yeah for any real shot of Lillard to be traded pre-deadline, the center-piece has to be a recent top 5 most talented player from one of the past 3 draft classes. Otherwise, they wait until the draft lotto to play out.
If you had to rank the top 5 best trade value for each of the 2019, 2020 and 2021 draft classes, who are your top 5 in order?
2019 Draft Class
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
2020 Draft Class
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
2021 Draft Class
1.

Just doing a quick scan, I think I retract my original statement and change it to a top 3 player from one of the past draft classes would need to be the centerpiece.

2019: Zion, Ja, .... yikes #3 is tough... Garland?
2020: LaMelo, Edwards, Wiseman?
2021: Mobley, Cade, Green? too soon to tell.
There's no trade to be made with Zion, LaMelo, Ant, and Ja

Yeah I think Ja, Zion, LaMelo, Edwards, Mobley, Cade would be off the table. Green, Barnes I’m borderline on.

With this list there's no way a star will be dealt pre-draft, right?

If the star is Lillard probably not, but I could see a situation where say Siakam + gets moved for Simmons or picks (or some other move like this). So, if we are not talking the top 15 players in the NBA, I think we can see a major move.

Yeah I agree, a clear-cut 3rd best guy on a legitimate championship team kind of guy... I could see a few of those being moved, but the Lillards of the world? No.
