He's most likely staying in Portland but I wouldn't be shocked if he's traded at the Trade Deadline
I think he stays a Blazer for another few seasons then something like the Knicks?
The Knicks need him now.
I'm just speculating as the Blazers have alot of good young players, might as well stick it out see if Scoot becomes a 2nd all star. Then if it doesn't pan out, Knicks are another 2 years developed.
My money is on the Heat if Portland can accept not getting Bam. Pat Riley is in perpetual win now mode, he'd def sell the future in picks and prospects to get a ring with this current core + Lillard imo. But also not sure Miami has enough of either.
But also not sure Miami has enough of either.
That's the key right there. Portland has Lillard locked up for 4 more years. There is no hurry for the Blazers to send him away for pennies on the dollar. The only trade I'm willing to entertain is if Spoelstra is included in the deal. Lillard goes to Miami, Spoelstra comes home.
