Damian Lillard has hoped for Portland to accommodate his trade request out of respect for both his resume and for his contributions to the Blazers’ franchise.
Yesterday I was wondering if this was some kind of smokescreen - it just doesn’t make sense at face value. But even then I can’t figure out how this would potentially benefit Portland or the receiving team. Then today, more chatter about him sitting out, maybe its real, after all.
As a Philly fan, I was hoping there was a chance we land him (especially if we could do it without giving up Maxey).
Seeing this report, I’m glad we didn’t get him because he’s a punk-ass malcontent.
