Damian Lillard to Miami Heat

Portland Trail Blazers Receive: G Tyler Herro, G/F Duncan Robinson, F Nikola Jovic, 2023 First-Round Pick (No. 18 – MIA), 2027 First-Round Pick (MIA), 2029 First-Round Pick (MIA)
Miami Heat Receive: G Damian Lillard

Sometimes, the heart and the mind are at odds. Surely, Damian Lillard wants to stay in Portland.

In all likelihood, the Portland Trail Blazers want to keep him, too. Is that logically what’s best for both parties?

If the Charlotte Hornets do select Brandon Miller, no, it probably isn’t. The Blazers would be in a position to draft their point guard of the future in Scoot Henderson. Why not build around him?

Meanwhile, the Miami Heat don’t need to consider the future. This team is in the NBA Finals, and they got here without Tyler Herro.
