How the Rudy Gobert trade and a Kevin Durant move impacts the Portland Trail Blazers

The Utah Jazz agreed to trade Rudy Gobert to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday in the what might be the first of several seismic trades that shake up the Western Conference playoff picture. With potential moves coming for Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and Ben Simmons in Brooklyn couple with the possibility of Deandre Ayton, Donovan Mitchell and Russell Westbrook changing teams, there's a lot up in the air across the league. Like, a lot. All of these trades and moves could have major implications for the Trail Blazers. Who are still waiting to complete the Jerami Grant trade and could wait until the dust settles to finish that trade or get involved in a larger deal if some other All-Stars in hopes of further upgrading the roster. Regardless of how it all plays out, the Blazers need to get bigger.
