Would a Josh Richardson for CJ swap make the Blazers better on court?


Contracts aside, would the Blazers perform better or worse and would Richardson be a better long term fit alongside Dame?

Miami is an interesting trade partner for the Blazers because of the three year deals they have. Presumably, they are a team that should always have big aspirations for free agency and the Blazers could help them get back there a year earlier. They know they can't get there next Summer, it would have to be 2020. If they could get out from under James Johnson now without having to spend a pick it could make some sense.

CJ and Gary Trent for Richardson and James Johnson? I have no clue what is going on with Winslow, but might they look to salvage some value from him by taking a late first?
