    Damian Lillard would like to be moved from multiple sources I have spoken with but Blazers will get a large sum for him.

    Pretty early to be making up twitter feeds and trolling. I for one think he is just having a bad day and should not be suspended

    We should trade him now because there isn't a player that stays with the same team. He will force us to deal him, just like Aldridge...

    He has a top PF in the league and they decide to dump him and blow up the team. He obviously will be pissed about having to start from scratch.

    Actually no....

    The Utah Jazz, Denver Nuggets, and Spurs all disagree with you.

    Lillard may want out in a few years if LMA is traded this summer and he has to score 40 a game and play 48mpg just to win 29 games.

    May as well trade him now for draft picks.

    Get the #1, #2, keep #10, and get the #19.

    Four first-round picks, including the top two, makes this a playoff team in 4 years. Of course, they'll all be due new contract extensions at that point, but we'll deal with that later.

    Lillard will get pissed when the team gets worse. I say trade him now, because he may not be around for the future.

    Do they?

    Spurs were 20-62 the year before they got Duncan

    Denver went 8 years in a row of losing seasons before they got Melo

    Utah was 26-56 the year before they got Deron Williams

    What was their record the few years before that? Robinson got hurt the entire season; which gave them the shot at Duncan. Before that, they were leading their divisions almost every year.

    Utah had one losing year and got Deron Williams.

    Denver has a streak of 10 straight years of making the playoffs.

    Point is, if Robinson hadn't been hurt, they would not have the championships they do now because they wouldn't have Duncan. The three years before they got the Admiral they had a losing record as well

    The only time Utah has been close to being a contender was 97-98 with Malone and Stockton. Before they got Malone and Stockton they were pretty much shit. Malone and Stockton left in 09-04 where they missed the play off for three years before they got Williams

    Yes they did, but before that, they sucked ass for 8 and never made it out of the first round in those 10 years except once, where they lost in the conference finals

    All of the teams you mentioned were horrible before they were better
