DDSPB 25 Portland Trailblazers: Rip City

Welcome to Portland; here we will begin a long-running dynasty with the Trailblazers out of Portland; you may have read the 24 Dynasty for the Spurs with Wemby; goal is to get into the future with this Portland team and go very, very long in order to bring a championship to The Blazers; considered doing the Wizards as a dynasty, but was a bit bored with the longer rebuild; this feels better and a bit more conductive to what I want to dow tih some key pieces already here. Goal will be an update a day; I am running this as Head Coach and GM because I wish to have as much control as possible over this, so sorry I will not be running this as a pure GM. Look for a roster update soon and a look around the NBA( The Luka-Lebron trade won't be applied to this).

Roster Look:

PG Dalano Barton
A bench guy; will more than likely be handed out to the D-League or traded alongside other pieces in the future.

PG Scoot Henderson
The big reason I even did this dynasty; wanted to bring Scoot to the forefront of the basketball world because I really like his game and want him to be a big star in the future as well as try and make a Guard the focal point of my team in a Dynasty; Spurs dynasty was very Wemby focused.

SG Ryan Rupert
Likely to be traded or sent down to the D-League.

SG Shaedon Sharpe
Likely our future starting Shooting Guard; will I trade Anfernee; More than likely. Like Sharpe a lot in real life and really enjoy this game with the backcourt with Scoot.

SG Anfernee Simons
Guess he will be traded; I cannot see myself keep Anfernee beyond maybe one season; will probably test the market with him in a trade.

SF Deni Avdija
A decent starter who has fallen off versus other versions; should still be starting for us.

SF Kris Murray
50/50 D-League

SF Matise Thybulle
Will be sent to the D-League.

SF Jabari Walker
Has a good upside and want him to be successful here unless we get some great draft position here.

PF Toumani Camara
Bench Power Forward with average potential; will probably stay on the bench for us for a long time unless a trade comes calling.

PF Jerami Grant
10000% Trade Bait for me.

C Deandre Ayton
Will stick around until Clingan has the tools to start or he will be dangled for picks and youth in the offseason.

C Donovan Clingan
The future at the 5 and should be the guy we look at to be the starter for many years into the future unless something happens at the draft.

C Doup Reaf
Purely on the bench for us; nothing more than that.

C Robert Williams III
Bench guy on too much money.

Overall Season Standings; Didn't feel the need to really go through this 1st season; we suck; that's it. We are bad and hopefully we grab the 1st Pick.

Playoff Bracket for our 1st season. Surprising to me as I didn't feel they had the roster for it; felt the Thunder would have taken the title.

Phoenix Suns take the Larry O'Brien and KD is the Finals MVP.

So we got the 4th best odds here for the 1st overall pick; fingers crossed we get it here. Don't think ever in these Dynasties I've gotten the 1st overall Pick; lol. Also these AI trades are just something else; Dallas gets a top 5 pick guaranteed?

Image
Pacers jump to 1 Overall and we stay at 4 here. I'll take it.

2025 NBA Draft Results
Image
#1 Overall Pick Aljosa Tripalo looks like he will be a beast for the Pacers; guess He will play the 3 while Siakam plays the 4 for the Pacers, but should be a building piece for years to come.

Image
Our Pick at 4 here in Makary Abratkiewicz who looks amazing for us; should be a franchise starting guard for us and someone who will make Scoot sweat over his future spot for sure.

Draft Trade:

Portland Trail Blazers Trade:
SG Anerfee Simons

Detroit Pistons Trade:
PF Tobias Harris
DET 2025 1st Round Pick #15
DET 2027 2nd Round Pick

Image
We grab Richard Roberson who was not as good as I thought, so sort of a bust pick, but wanted Simons out after the guard pick and our cap space will be very, very healthy with Harris and Ayton off the books next offseason.

Roster Outlook Season 2:

Image
PG Makary Abratkiewicz
Our number 4 overall pick in the draft who went up a bit in the ratings department after Training Camp; will be the main man here at PG as I continue to develop Scoot to eventually either be dealt away or Scoot can be a useful off the bench combo guard for us, but expect this team to run off the vibes created by Makary Abratkiewicz.

Image
PG Scoot Henderson
Funny how I picked the Trailblazers to develop Scoot and we get a great PG out of the draft who could very well be the reason I trade Scoot away; that is something that is very, very funny. Yes; I will dangle the Scoot trade rabbit in discussions because I believe I can get something nice and juicy in return for him.

Image
SG Shaedon Sharpe
Shaedon remains the starter at the 2 guard position and I don't expect that to change, but out backcourt situation will need a remedy as I seek to have a better cohesive unit going forward, so either him or Scoot will be dealt.

Image
SF Deni Avdija
Will try and get him off the team alongside Grant if I can, but I doubt it.

Image
SF Kris Murray
Bench guy who I Will try and get off of and then probably sign to a cheaper deal in Free Agency.

Image
SF Mattise Thybulle
Same as Murray; just a bench guy who we have sitting around on so much money.

Image
PF Jerami Grant
Way too much money for a scorer who is a complete liability on defense and will try and find a trade for him either this season or next.

Image
PF Tobias Harris
His contract expires sometime soon, so that is why he is here; will probably start maybe.

Image
PF Toumani Camara
Big fan and should be our bench 4 for the next few years if he doesn't demand too much money.

Image
C Kimani Palmer
Will hang out in the D-League.

Image
C Robert Williams III
Contract expires and frees up money.

Image
C Donovan Clingan
Getting to the point of being a very, very, very good Center and Defensive Anchor for us; if he makes a leap next Training Camp; could make me re-think Ayton's future.

Image
C Deandre Ayton
Will more than likely be re-signed on a more team friendly deal since other teams have cash strapped and I promise him some stuff.

More than likely I am getting fired with goals like these. Make the Playoffs with this team; more than likely we make the Play-In.

Image
Our depth-chart, but 200% Injury changes this a lot lol.
