Keep rolling in! Brogdon 1-for-5 plan: The Clippers added six more point guards, and the Blazers made a big profit

Perhaps the Suns trade for Beal caused a chain reaction, and now the entire league is engaged in an arms race with teams interested in competing for the championship. The Grizzlies brought in Smart, the Lakers signed Sonter, the Warriors got Paul, the Eastern Bucks also traded for Lillard, and the Celtics next door were even more continuous, first trading to Porzingis, and then getting Holladay, it can be said that armed to the teeth. The Clippers, Heat and other teams, although they did not move, have actually been trying to strengthen. The Clippers, in particular, were very close to getting Harden before, only to fail because the chips were not suitable.

Now, the US media FW recommends that the Clippers continue to roll in, making a 1-for-5 trade around Brogdon: the Clippers add more than six point guards, and the Blazers make a big profit

The potential options are: the Clippers send Morris Jr., Coffey, Kobe Brown, 2029 + 2030 second round pick, get Brogdon

For the Blazers, what they need to do now is to continue to maximize their interests in the follow-up deal for Lillard. They had already received draft picks by trading Lillard, and trading Holladay continued to get draft picks, and now they can continue to use this way to contribute to their rebuild. And the Blazers themselves are on the guard line, already have Henderson, Sharp and A Simmons to develop, and do not have Brogdon too much position.

This plan allows the Blazers to strengthen 3 forward players in one go, Brown is a rookie in the class of 2023 and has development value, Coffey is obviously the addition, and Morris Jr. is a 17.12 million expiring contract, and the Blazers can release a lot of salary space next year. Of course, the Blazers are more likely to continue to trade Morris Jr. to teams that want to make space in exchange for assets.

The Clippers gave up pursuing Harden because it was more expensive, at least needed to send Mann and a first-round pick, and it was a bit risky for the future of the team. In contrast, the pursuit of Brogdon is simply a lossless reinforcement. Morris Jr. has already shown some prickly attributes, and his tactical position within the team has begun to marginalize, and he has long been put on the trade shelf by the Clippers. Even if he barely stays, he is only a player on the fringes of rotation. The Clippers have too many forwards, even Powell has to play as a substitute, Covington even has few opportunities to play, so Coffey and Brown actually don't have much playing time, and the Clippers are trading idle items for a much-needed item.

Last season, Brogdon averaged 14.9 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game for the Clippers, and he also won the best sixth man with the Green Army's super record and his outstanding performance. During the Pacers days, Brogdon even averaged 21.2+5+5 seasons and tried to average 7.1 assists per game. Obviously, Brogdon can take on the role of playmaker, connecting with other scorers in the team, and also serve as the main attacker to score himself. Of course, because Wei Shao occupies the starting lineup, I believe that Brogdon's main positioning is still the super six in the team.

In this way, the Clippers' regular season record is more guaranteed, and the playoffs face different opponents and have more personnel options. The Blazers, on the other hand, have made a lot of money in a series of recent deals, and believe they will soon complete the rebuild.
