"As part of the deal, the Blazers will receive the higher of the second-round picks that the Los Angeles Lakers and Minnesota Timberwolves owe Cleveland in 2019, and Cleveland's 2020 secound-round pick, league sources told Yahoo Sports. Portland will send cash to the Cavaliers too, sources said."

The Cavs traded Haywood and Miller to save luxury tax money and to secure the $10.5 million trade exception, which is the largest in the league. For being involved in the deal, the Blazers received two second round picks. The Blazers will waive Haywood, because his contract is non-guaranteed, and probably buy out Miller. Any picks the Blazers sent to the Cavs are highly protected, and would only be included because I'm pretty sure both teams have to give something up for the trade to be approved. This ESPN article doesn't even mention them.

Basically the Blazers got two second round picks just for facilitating this roster move for the Cavs. It's not much, but they're assets that can potentially be included in some future deal.

But you would have known this if you had taken 45 seconds to do a Google search instead of firing up this shyt post.

Cleveland Cavaliers trade Brendan Haywood, Mike Miller to Portland Trail Blazers
