> Lillard remains set on playing for the Heat, but trade talks with Miami have been largely dormant for weeks. Throughout the process, the Heat has been unconvinced that Portland is even willing to trade the 11-year veteran. As of early this week, the Blazers have expressed no enthusiasm for the Heat’s assets or interest in engaging in serious negotiations.
> But the Blazers are rebuilding, and Lillard made clear that his aspirations of winning a championship are “higher than it’s ever been. When you’re younger and you’re winning, you realize that you got time. When you establish yourself in the league and you know that you’re here to stay, you feel like you have time.
> Lillard isn’t permitted to discuss his interest in the Heat or threaten the Blazers in the wake of a July memo sent to all 30 teams that stated he would be subject to discipline if he or Goodwin say anything to suggest that Lillard would not “fully perform the services called for under his player contract in the event of a trade.”

Why is Lillard not being fined? this is ridiculous
Fuck Miami.
Hasn’t Jackson been the heat reporter whining every single week about the blazers not being willing to engage in a trade? Sorry buddy you don’t get gifted a top 75 player of all time
This reads like a post from the heat sub lmao
I’m so fuckin tired of reading “not interested in serious negotiations”….we’re the seller here. Miamis offer sucks. Why should we work with them? It’s their job to deliver a better offer and all accounts indicate they haven’t. We also want to open it up to other teams.
Lol. Keep crying, Miami media. We don’t care
cry more, jackson
Cronin is just spiteful now
Push your chips in then. Stop bluffing and then crying like bitches through media. Annoying AF.
How about the next update be the official trade. We don’t give a shit until then.
I think we all knew Florida education is on the decline, but the fact that we already have to re-teach Miami fans that it’s *their FO* that needs to figure this shit out and *come to us* with a good deal on a near daily basis is genuinely alarming.
