The Portland Trailblazers have completed drafting, and have come away with the following players: G-F Brandon Rush, G Kyle Weaver, F-C Nikola Pekovic, and SG JR Giddens. In real life, NOH traded me their #27 pick for cash, which turned out to be Serge Ibaka.*
Their roster, by position, is now:
PG: Steve Blake, Jarrett Jack, Sergio Rodriguez, Kyle Weaver
SG: Brandon Roy, Brandon Rush, JR Giddens
SF: Martell Webster, Travis Outlaw, James Jones
PF: Lamarcus Aldridge, Channing Frye, Serge Ibaka*, Josh McRoberts
C: Greg Oden, Joel Przybilla, Nikola Pekovic, Raef Lafrentz
Which leaves them with 18* players. They would have to trade four players for one in order to get at the maximum of 15 players on a roster.
I smell big things coming for the Blazers, likely involving a trade featuring Lafrentz's expiring contract.

Terrible.
I love the Giddens pick, I've even seen his name recently in a mock that has him going in late Rd 1...

Pretty fantastic night for the Trailblazers:
The Blazers agreed to a deal that will sent the rights to Rush, Jarrett Jack and Josh McRoberts to the Pacers for the rights to Bayless and Ike Diogu.
A source told ESPN.com the Rockets traded Batum to the Blazers for the rights to Arthur and Joey Dorsey (No. 33 overall).
Portland also traded the draft rights to Omer Asik (No. 36 overall) to Chicago for three future second-round picks. Finally, the Blazers traded the draft rights for Mike Taylor (No. 55) to the Clippers for a second-round pick in 2009.
But, James Jones elected to become a free agent.
Their roster NOW looks like:
G Jerryd Bayless/PG Steve Blake/G Sergio Rodriguez
G Brandon Roy/GF Nicholas Batum
SF Travis Outlaw/GF Martell Webster
FC LaMarcus Aldridge/FC Channing Frye/FC Ike Diogu
C Greg Oden/C Joel Przybilla/FC Raef LaFrentz
With FOUR additional future second-rounders.
