Wtf… you clearly don’t understand the kind of woke Portland or Kyrie is. Couldn’t be more polar opposite. Plus Kyrie can’t play any more games in Portland than he can in NY. Same vaxx mandate.

Stephen A thinks EVERYONE wants to be traded to the knicks... plus... you know... it's Stephen A... I am pretty sure my 70 yr old father has better "sources".

Don’t think any knick fan wants dame at what it would cost either….

If Portland doesn’t want to start over and basically swap lillard for randle and some other stuff I and most other knick fans would do it. Otherwise, I hope the knicks don’t gut the roster to pair lillard and randle with nothing left .

And I doubt Portland is dumb enough to deal lillard for randle

Knicks seem unlikely but leaking Knicks to SAS is a step towards the door. Tried and true script.

My reading of the tea leaves is that Dame was giving it the year. He's hurting and the team... isn't good. I could see something happening.

No more gutting the **** team for a player who can’t carry the team to a championship. Lillard isn’t that player worth gutting a team for. I don’t want to keep seeing the Knicks repeat the same mistake ad nauseum

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard has given no indication he'd like to be trade. In fact, Lillard has regularly said the exact opposite. However, teams still harbor ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

I’d sign up for the Lillard treadmill over the weak young core/assets treadmill we currently doing.. At least having Dame might attract other stars to might wanna come play with him under the bright lights at MSG. He has that kind of pull

i also think calling burks, kemba, quickly and rose pg's is a bit generous. they are scorers that handle the ball but far from pg playmakers.

SAS has been saying Knicks would be on Dames list since the summer, so this isn’t really any new leaks or anything… and it’s SAS, so yeahhhh

But yeah, I don’t think anything is off the table in the Blazers right now. The team seems to be falling apart at the seams, so if they don’t move fast, I can see Dame asking out by the trade deadline and a better than 50/50 chance this summer.

The Knicks would easily get outbid if Lillard were to be traded. It would be foolish for the Blazers to take a lesser package from the Knicks just to appease him.


I disagree. The Knicks definitely could get outbid by other teams, but if Dame asked out, the team would respect his wishes for what team he wants to goto out of respect for what he’s done for the team over the past decade.


It would be a tricky situation to say the least. I am a Detroit Lions fan and they traded Stafford to the Rams because that is where he wanted to be traded to. They did receive 2 1st round picks and a 3rd round pick, plus Goff who has helped them tank into most likely the 1st overall pick. The point being that the trade benefited both the player and the franchise. The Knicks would not be able to provide that for the Blazers I do not believe.

One of the worst “rumors” I’ve heard. Even if he really wanted to go to NY it’s Stephan A Smith reporting this. Further, is NY really any better than the Blazers if not worse?

You are saying that now, 3 years from now when they still haven’t passed the 2nd round you will roast him like we did melo. Lillard isn’t that dude just like melo wasn’t that dude. Learn from your mistakes
