  1. I remember when he would immediately shut down any questions like this lol

  2. swaggyp29

    Damn just openly talking about it now lol

  3. Projinator

    What does that trade even look like? Herro, Martin, plus others and picks? Not sure how Portland accepts that

  4. FlapsackMcBingus

    Wtf

    If you are answering questions like this just request a trade. This is so goofy

  5. jimmyhota

    Leaving out Brooklyn also being an obvious one in the title, Bridges is his dawg as well

  6. BasedGodProdigy

    Not quite what he said but pretty close. Lumping us in with Boston and New York after he said we’re another obvious choice and that Mikal is his dawg is pretty funny.

    I like our asset pool more too

  7. Half_baked_prince

    How much fun is he going to have with Bam if he’s going to Portland to make the trade work?

  8. “Look, I’m not ASKING for a trade. But if they WANTED to trade me, Miami would be nice. But again, NOT asking for a trade. No sir”

  9. realudonishaslem

    This must be what sex feels like

  10. thecaptainflint

    As a heat fan I don’t give a shit about this right now

  11. bigbaldheadNR

    Lol he wants out but don’t want to say it.

  12. KingNephew

    He’s finally running from the grind.

  13. Dame gonna get hated even more for being annoying. Just ask for a damn trade.

  14. saylab_the_bigkat

    Never forget, Portland drafted Zach Collins over Bam Adebayo

  15. Knickerbockers-94

    He would make no sense on the Knicks, we have Brunson who’s younger and cheaper. He’s obviously not better, but we haven’t seen his ceiling yet and unlike Dame, he’s not entering his mid 30s.

  16. Bballopinion

    Lillard is going all-in on trying to get Portland to trade that pick LMAO

  17. wangandassociates

    Just go lmao. He’s screwing both himself and the org’s future by staying at this point. Miami would be fun with that trio too

  18. Puddinsnack

    This is like the most obvious passive aggressive shit from Dame and it’s hilarious.

  19. Background_Action_92

    I want him but I dont want to trade anybody

  20. goblue202320242025

    Miami upgrading after a finals run would be something. Because that team with dame would be the best team in the nba

  21. Rhystanz

    If you want to be traded, just say it. At this point he probably wants to leave, but not on his own will because that would break is loyalty talk. Talking around it doesn’t help anybody.

  22. ConceptNo1055

    Nets have the best package.

    Then Draft Scoot and rebuild from there

  23. deck4242

    have a good hard look at your contract Dame. Why would the Heat, a team playing the title right now sacrifice their depth so you can enjoy your pre retirement in Florida ?

  24. TechnicianWeird7593

    The best we could do is:

    Miami Receives: Damian Lillard

    Portland Receives: Nikola Jovic, Kyle Lowry, Salary Filler from Team 3, #18, every available Miami pick, Team 3’s FRP and SRP.

    3rd team Receives: Tyler Herro

    Team 3 would have to be a contending team that wants Herro’s scoring but won’t value their FRP since it’ll be mid-late twenties.

    Basically a difficult trade to achieve and far from the best offer that Portland will receive.

  25. Opening_Internet_878

    Losing legacy points every day

  26. tonypearcern

    How fucking bored is Lillard? Dude is constantly posting online

  27. kaiWarDun

    Conveniently don’t mention the 2nd half of his statement lol

  28. pm-me-your-smile-

    Reporter asks hypothetical questions, Dame responds.

    ITT: “Just friggin leave already!”

    Dame will leave if he wants to. Everyone in Portland will understand if he wants to leave. But he doesn’t want to (yet), and Blazers fans are happy to have him as long as he’s happy to stay. (Most of us anyway)

    For the most part, Blazers fans want the best for Dame. He’s not trying to run the franchise to the ground, he’s given us his best years, he’s given us amazing leadership, and some unforgettable moments.

    When he says he wants to go, everyone will know. A reporter asking him questions and hin responding is not him demanding a trade, it’s just him having a public conversation.

    He’s active on IG, he’s in contact with our front office. When he wants to go, we’ll all know. That’s not the case here.

  29. Basic-Classic-8938

    Miami’s warm year round, got the baddies if he’s into that, they’re literally in the Finals without their 3rd best player and he’s friends with Bam. I agree that out of those options it’s Miami “obviously”

  30. MixonWitDaWrongCrowd

    This dude is so annoying. Leave or don’t.

  31. Comprehensive-Cat805

    We’ll trade Ben Simmons and Patty Mills for Dame, final offer.

  32. encinodude

    Wow dude wants to go to the team that made the finals, truly the hardest road

  33. roodypoo926

    Imagine the joy of rooting for a team in a city like Miami that rich NBA dudes want to live in. Needless to say, Charlotte is not South Beach. Why did I have to be born in the queen city?!! Parents not smart enough to let me grow up in Miami and root for them

  34. dawn_patroller1

    Dames a decent nba player, but I can’t see Miami going after him in the slightest. Why would they want an off court diva who makes music and is aging and is MAYBE a top 15 point guard right now in the league.

  35. ColgateHitler

    Dame is a pussy. Same shit as OJ “If I did it.” Say it with your chest ffs

  36. Cankor0

    Knicks got Brunson who is showing more consistency in scoring and staying healthy than Damian.

    Damian is still a great player but him and Bridges won’t be enough to contend.

    He will be a great fit to the Celtics and the Heat but i doubt he wants to come to Boston

  37. BottlehamHotSpur

    Dame praying he gets traded, while doing his PR moves like he wants to be in Portland forever lol

    Funny timeline
