Earlier this offseason, Damian Lillard‘s name circulated in trade rumors, as it was reported that he wanted out of the Portland Trail Blazers—and of course the New York Knicks were one of the teams mentioned.
Since then, Lillard has done a great job of disproving this gossip, but has made it clear that if the Blazers don’t make significant improvements to their roster, the rumors could become a reality.
Despite Dame’s statements, the rumor mill continues to churn; a relentless, unmovable juggernaut that spits out terrible trade proposals.
