I like that value for Portland a lot.

Don't know enough about Coward to comment.

[GreekAlex]

What does Portland receive?

[LightTheBeam]

Memphis using those Bane picks already.

Coward/Wells very cheap 2/3

Like it for them

Great value for Portland.

Jumping up for who you want always costs a bundle.

Expensive price, but rumor is SA wanted him. Like the pick, but giving up a Orlando UP pick is tough....and we had to add 2nds. Coward was who I wanted so hard to be mad at the overpayment.

[Clav]

Love it for Portland, that's great!

[Blazinaway]

same here, nice trade by Cronin

I wanted him from the very beginning, and I don’t give a slightest KuCF about a late pick 2028, which is nothing in comparison to what we just got. This kid will be better than Bane in 1 season, likely even less. I have never been happier as a Grizz fan since the Ja pick.

Love it for Portland as long as they don’t mess up 16th. Plenty of good players should be available.

I think Coward's workout is why they traded Bane.

edit: I stand corrected, the workout was after the trade

[Scoot McGroot]

Really good value for Portland.

I'm still waiting on Aldama to become an all star..

Expensive to move up nowadays

I wish you could be similarly excited about the Raps pick

I am happy too. I think maybe Portland really wanted him too so we had to pay a price to change their mind. Not sure about being better than Bane anytime soon but he doesn't have to be worth this. He was always the most logical guy to target to fill the hole on our roster and happy what Zach was willing to be aggressive and made his move to get him.

WTF did Portland do? Jaku was sitting right there for the taking.
