NBA Trade Rumors: Exploring what may be the best and worst-case scenarios for the Portland Trail Blazers in the Damian Lillard saga moving forward.
It’s been more than a month since the beginning of the Damian Lillard trade saga. Somewhat surprisingly, there has been little-to-no traction toward a potential resolution between the Blazers and Lillard. Because of the lack of development or movement toward a deal, you can’t help but question how this may all end.
If the Blazers aren’t currently pursuing a deal for Lillard, does that mean they’re hoping one never develops? Or is Portland simply waiting until the very last minute to pull the trigger on a deal, saving face in a way that makes it seem they trade him on their time? We don’t know and probably won’t ultimately until there’s some sort of resolution.
So, what can we expect to happen next? Well, the endgame is likely next.
What are the possible endgame results for the Portland Trail Blazers with Damian Lillard?
The question is, what exactly is the endgame for the Blazers and Lillard? There’s little more that the Blazers can lose at this point, especially if there is not much of a trade market for Lillard, and that should give the team solace in this process moving so slowly.
You can’t help but wonder; what is the endgame? How do the Blazers envision this ending in a best-case scenario outcome or a worst-case scenario one?
