Damian Lillard

The LeBron billboard craze continues, but this time the billboard is essentially tolling LeBron and the previous billboards, not actually trying to pitch LeBron to come to their city in free agency. About $6,000 was raised in a Go Fund Me account in Portland to purchase a billboard in the city that doesn’t exactly include [...]

With one of the league’s seven highest payrolls, yet only the 12th-best record, the Portland Trail Blazers find themselves in a weird spot as they barrel toward the NBA’s Feb. 8 trade deadline. Some will argue they should begin a quasi-teardown, dealing away some of their larger salaries in favor of cap relief and, if [...]

Damian Lillard is universally recognized as one of the NBA’s elite-most talents—a top-25 to top-30 player in most seasons, and a borderline top-15 to top-20 player this season. So why is it he only has two All-Star appearances to his name, and none since 2015? Well, mostly, the backcourt ballot is incredibly stuffed in the [...]

As previously mentioned, Blazers Owner Paul Allen is not happy with the level of success the Blazers are experiencing this season at 21-18 and wants more. Reports have come out that he has his executive team determining if the organization’s issues are more representative of the front office or coaching. Blazers face of the franchise, [...]

Damian Lillard’s recruitment of Carmelo Anthony continues. Whether this particular continuation is deliberate or inadvertent, contrived or genuine, remains to be seen. But Lillard is now among the players who have taken issue with ESPN ranking Anthony as the 64th-best player in the league. As he told NBA.com’s David Aldridge: “I do think that ranking [...]

Damian Lillard has sky-high hopes for the Portland Trail Blazers in the event they trade for Carmelo Anthony. Like, way-too-high hopes. When commenting on what Blazers’ chances would be in the Western Conference with Melo on the roster, Lillard went as far as suggesting the reigning-champion Golden State Warriors would need “good luck” to get [...]

Carmelo Anthony would never waive his no-trade clause to play for anyone other than the Cleveland Cavaliers or Houston Rockets. Or would he? Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum seem think Anthony is open to playing for the Portland Trail Blazers, who have entered, unofficially, the now-anemic Melo sweepstakes. Both stars have copped to recruiting the [...]
