The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portland-blazers" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Portland Trail Blazers </a>are facing a bit of a dilemma. They could either decide to trade away<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/damian-lillard" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Damian Lillard </a>and develop through the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a> Draft, or trade that No. 3 pick to try and get another All-Star by his side.



And according to the latest reports, the Blazers could be leaning toward the first option, meaning they would run it back with Lillard at the helm for at least another season.



With that in mind, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/chicago-bulls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chicago Bulls</a> insider K.C. Johnson cites that people around the league should keep tabs on Zach LaVine or DeMar DeRozan, who could be on his way to Rip City to play alongside Lillard.



<h2>NBA Rumors: Bulls Could Trade Zach LaVine Or DeMar DeRozan For No. 3 Pick</h2>



(Transcript via NBC Sports)



“After the Trail Blazers jumped from the fifth to third pick at Tuesday’s draft lottery, multiple outlets reported that Portland will explore the market for that pick in an attempt to land a big splash for Damian Lillard. Would the Bulls instead engage in talks for that pick, which unequivocally would necessitate the inclusion of LaVine or, alternatively, DeMar DeRozan?



One league source told NBC Sports Chicago that if the Trail Blazers went this route, they would be focused on more defensive-minded, two-way players. Lillard does have strong relationships with both LaVine and DeRozan, the former of whom he played with at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. So stay tuned.”



The Bulls don’t know when or if Lonzo Ball will be able to come back, so getting Scoot Henderson makes sense, especially considering they don’t even have a first-round pick this season.

You never know what may happen in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a>. No one, not even <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/draymond-green" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Draymond Green</a>, is safe from being moved, and it’s not like he’s never hinted at leaving the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/golden-state-warriors" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Golden State Warriors</a> at some point, either.



Green has been a pivotal part of the Warriors dynasty since he took over the starting PF spot. But he’s also starred in several scandals, up to the point where some feel like he’s already outstayed his welcome.



Whatever the case, and regardless of his lack of scoring prowess, Green should gauge plenty of league-wide attention. With that in mind, let’s take a look at three teams that could pursue the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/Jrue-Holiday-and-best-active-players-with-no-NBA-DPOY-awards-20230420-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Defensive Player of the Year.</a>



<h2>NBA Rumors: 3 Potential Destinations For Draymond Green</h2>



<h3>3. Portland Trail Blazers</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230514_BUS_961_draymond-green-1-1024x572.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=572" alt="" class="wp-image-964" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-1-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-1-300x168.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-1-768x429.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-1.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Teaming up with Lillard – Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



The Portland Trail Blazers need to decide whether they want to rebuild and trade Damian Lillard away&nbsp;or give this roster a final chance. If they decide to do the second, then Draymond would be a no-brainer pickup.



Green has been tied to a move to the Portland Trail Blazers for years now, but obviously, nothing happened. So, now that both parties could look to move on from each other, the timing seems perfect.



<h3>2. Los Angeles Lakers</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230514_BUS_961_draymond-green-2-1024x572.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=572" alt="" class="wp-image-963" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-2-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-2-300x168.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-2-768x429.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-2.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Playing with his idol – Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



It’s not a secret that Draymond Green is LeBron James’ No. 1 fan. He might even have LeBron-inspired pajamas, and we wouldn’t be shocked to see him throw a LeBron-themed birthday party.



All jokes aside, Green is also represented by Rich Paul and Klutch Sports, just like LeBron and Anthony Davis. The Los Angeles&nbsp;Lakers are always after stars, and so is LeBron. He might as well get a chance to fulfill his dream.



<h3>1. Dallas Mavericks</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="572" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20230514_BUS_961_draymond-green-3-1024x572.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=572" alt="" class="wp-image-962" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-3-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-3-300x168.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-3-768x429.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2023/05/draymond-green-3.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Luka gets a bodyguard – Getty Images</figcaption></figure>



The only way the Dallas Mavericks will ever get over the hump is by adding toughness and defense. Draymond Green checks both boxes, and he’d be a massive factor in this team’s aspirations.



With or without Kyrie Irving, there’s no way Luka Doncic can carry this team deep into the playoffs without another ball-handler, which is also one of Green’s biggest strengths. He could help develop a winning culture under Jason Kidd.

NBA Rumors: 3 teams that could pursue Draymond Green

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portland-blazers" target="_blank">Portland Trail Blazers</a> might want to head in a different direction for the upcoming <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank">NBA</a> season. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/damian-lillard" target="_blank">Damian Lillard</a> has outgrown them already, and they might want to rebuild once and for all. 
Should that be the case, then we could expect multiple suitors lining up to pursue him. From the Los Angeles Lakers to the Miami Heat or even Los Angeles Clippers, there will be no shortage of potential destinations. 
However, ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith believes the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/philadelphia-76ers" target="_blank">Philadelphia 76ers</a> would be the best fit for Lillard right now, especially if James Harden decides to opt out of the final year of his contract. 
<h2>Stephen A. Smith Urges Sixers To Pursue Lillard</h2> 
"I would go the route of Philadelphia," Smith said. "His loyalty to the city of Portland has been unwavering, and this is the closest that I've ever heard him sound to being anything different,&nbsp;but I think Damian Lillard needs to get the hell out of Portland as quickly as he possibly can." 
"To me, outside of Steph Curry, there isn't a point guard in this league I'd take on my team more so than Damian Lillard," Smith added. "I would take Damian Lillard over James Harden in a heartbeat. I wouldn't think twice if I was Philly and I can get my hands on Dame and I had to forfeit Harden."

<h2>Harden Might Leave At The End Of The Season.</h2> 
Notably, Smith isn't the only pundit who believes the Sixers could be up to something with Lillard. Harden is supposedly interested in a Houston Rockets reunion, so Nick Wright thinks it should be a no-brainer: 
"There are those odd murmurs that James Harden might leave and go back to Houston," said Wright. "If they flame out in the postseason, it could be a tough offseason for Philadelphia. I'm sure they would try to trade for Dame and remake the team that way."

No disrespect to Harden, but he's entering the backend of his prime, while Lillard is one year younger. Also, he's an even more explosive scorer at this point in his career, so this would be a blast to watch for hoops fans everywhere.

Stephen A. Smith shares bold take on Damian Lillard replacing James Harden in Philadelphia

For years, everybody around<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank"> NBA</a> circles has urged <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/damian-lillard" target="_blank">Damian Lillard</a> to just leave the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portland-blazers" target="_blank">Portland Trail Blazers</a>. He even claimed that&nbsp;LeBron James recruited him to join the Los Angeles Lakers last season. 
Lillard has always vowed to stay loyal to Rip City, the fans, and the organization. Even if that means retiring without winning an NBA championship. That has led to criticism and mockery among the fans. 
Nonetheless, it seems like Lillard is finally <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/Damian-Lillard-finally-hints-at-leaving-the-Blazers-but-theres-a-catch-20230413-0003.html" target="_blank">reaching a breaking poin</a>t. He recently claimed that he's not interested in playing for a rebuilding team, so let's take a look at the three franchises that could realistically make a run at him. 
<h2>NBA Rumors: Potential Landing Spots For Damian Lillard</h2> 
<h3>3. Philadelphia 76ers</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center"> 
 <figure class="image" style="display:inline-block">

Joel Embiid can do wonders with an elite playmaker by his side, just like he showed this season. But James Harden might not be in Philly beyond this year, so they need to act quickly to find a replacement. 
The prospect of having two 30+ points per game scorers has to be quite appealing for the Philadelphia 76ers. Also, Tyrese Maxey could stay dominating with the second unit and learn some tricks from Dame. 
<h3>2. Los Angeles Clippers</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center"> 
 <figure class="image" style="display:inline-block">

It would be ironic to see Lillard teaming up with former arch-rival Paul George, who he accused of 'running from the grind.' But if they can bury the hatchet, then the Los Angeles Clippers would be an obvious fit. 
The Clippers were looking for a floor-spacing and floor-general point guard before signing Russell Westbrook. Lillard would be an upgrade over this version of Russ, and a better fit next to Kawhi Leonard. 
<h3>1. Miami Heat</h3> 
<div style="text-align:center"> 
 <figure class="image" style="display:inline-block">

</div> 
The Miami Heat nearly traded Kyle Lowry this season, and the need for a better option at the PG spot has become evident. Lillard is a much better shooter, scorer, and passer, albeit a lesser defender. 
Moreover, Lillard is the kind of hard-nosed competitor who'll always leave it all on the court, so he's an obvious fit next to Jimmy Butler, Bam Adebayo, and Heat Culture. He's the star Pat Riley has been craving for years.

NBA trade rumors: Potential destinations for Damian Lillard

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/damian-lillard" target="_blank">Damian Lillard</a> has officially sounded off the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank">NBA</a> alarms. He's made it clear that he doesn't want to be a part of a rebuilding team, so his days with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portland-blazers" target="_blank">Portland Trail Blazers</a> might as well be numbered. 
Lillard is one of the highest earners in the league, so working a way around his contract won't be easy. Moreover, even if he's a veteran making a lot of money and wants to leave, his asking price should be quite steep. 
Regardless of all that, ESPN's Brian Windhorst claims the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/miami-heat" target="_blank">Miami Heat </a>will be heavily involved in any potential move for the All-Star guard. So, don't be shocked if he ends up in South Florida with Jimmy Butler. 
<h2>Miami Heat Could Make A Run At Damian Lillard</h2> 
"The team I'm watching is the Miami Heat," Windhorst said. "The Heat are ready to go to their next star window. This is what they do. The Heat hunts stars. His time would probably match Jimmy Butler in terms of age. They have tradeable things potentially that the Blazers could want. I'm being a little premature but that's kind of what I see happening."

<h2>Heat May Not Have The Assets</h2> 
However, the Heat will face plenty of competition for Lillard's services, not to mention the fact that they might not have enough to offer or make the Blazers even pick up the phone in the negotiations: 
&ldquo;It would have to start with Tyler Herro, once his extension kicks in, you can send him to Portland,&rdquo; an unnamed NBA executive told Sean Deveney of Heavy. &ldquo;Then it is a matter of, can they include Kyle Lowry? Duncan Robinson? Portland would have to take back a bad contract to make it work." 
"So then, how much draft capital is Miami willing to give up?" the executive asked. "They owe a pick (2025 first-rounder) to OKC, so they can only give up a couple picks, and they could include [Nikola] Jovic. They&rsquo;d have to put everything into the now and there&rsquo;s a chance they&rsquo;re going to be willing to do that.&rdquo;

It won't be easy at all, but Pat Riley sure knows his way in this league, and it's been a while since he last made a statement move like this. So, keep an eye on the Heat if Lillard actually wants to leave.

Heat want to trade for Damian Lillard, but there's a catch

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/philadelphia-76ers" target="_blank">Philadelphia 76ers</a> are one of the biggest candidates to go the distance and win the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank">NBA</a> championship this season. And that's going to remain the case for as long as Joel Embiid and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/james-harden" target="_blank">James Harden </a>are healthy. 
More than that, this championship run will be crucial to the organization's plans for the future. That's because Harden can opt out of the final year of his contract and become an unrestricted free agent. 
And with all the buzz about Harden reportedly wanting to go back to the Houston Rockets, NBA analyst Nick Wright claims that the Sixers could pursue <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/damian-lillard" target="_blank">Damian Lillard</a> as his replacement.

<h2>Lillard Hints At Leaving Portland</h2> 
Lillard has always shut down the rumors of discontent with the organization, but it seems like he's finally weighing in on his future, stating that he might not want to be a part of a rebuilding team: 
"It ain't a threat," Lillard said on Stephen A's World. "I am not gonna say that I am putting them on a clock; I'm just saying if we can't do something significant like that, we won't have a chance to compete on that level." 
"Not only will I have a decision to make, but the organization will too,"&nbsp;Lillard added. "Are we gonna go young, or are we gonna get something done? We've not been fully committing to either one. Everybody wants to win. They believe I deserve that opportunity, and I am trusting that we're committed and diligent about doing those things this offseason; this is our most important offseason since I've been here."

So, the door is wide open for Daryl Morey and the Sixers to try and make a run at Lillard. They'll have to make the numbers work, but there's arguably no better potential replacement for Harden right now.

NBA Rumors: Sixers may have found a replacement for James Harden

For years, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank">NBA</a> fans and even colleagues have urged <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/damian-lillard" target="_blank">Damian Lillard</a> to just cut the cord and leave the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/portland-blazers" target="_blank">Portland Trail Blazers</a>. He's one of the best scorers in the league, yet his efforts continue to go to waste because of his team's struggles. 
Several contending teams would love to have a guy like Lillard leading the way, and small-market teams often fail to surround their stars with the talent they need to thrive. However, Lillard has always vowed to stay loyal to Rip City.... Until now. 
In a recent appearance on Stephen A's World with Stephen A. Smith, Lillard doubled down on his loyalty to the team&nbsp;but claimed that he <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/NBA-News-Damian-Lillard-sends-strong-warning-to-Blazers-front-office-20230322-0033.html" target="_blank">might be forced to leave</a> if they decide to start a rebuild.

That's fair and valid. Lillard is not at a point in his career where he should be a part of a rebuilding team, and the Blazers also need to realize that it's time for them to pull the plug and hit the drawing board again. 
Lillard will most likely face plenty of backlash and mockery for leaving the team after all these years of saying that he wouldn't leave. But it's either that or wasting the backend years of his prime and the sunset of his career.

It is the last game of the regular season, and it will undoubtedly be a close with many emotions.

Following a terrible campaign in which they've completely given up before the regular season ended, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/ringless-best-nba-players-that-have-never-won-a-ring-20210625-0009.html" target="_blank">Blazers</a> made moves to try and help <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/NBA-Records-Damian-Lillard-and-every-player-who-has-scored-70-points-20230227-0017.html" target="_blank">Damian Lillard</a> this year. 
However, it didn't work out. With not many games left in the 2022-23, Portland is 13th in the Western Conference with a 31-40 record, which makes it hard for them to believe in a playoff spot. 
It's a shame for Dame, who has continued to prove he's one of the greatest shooters in NBA history this season. At 32, Lillard has made it clear to the front office that he's done with the rebuilding mentality. 
<h2>Damian Lillard warns Blazers' brass he's tired of rebuild mode</h2> 
&ldquo;That's not what I'm interested in," Lillard said in regard to rebuilding, via NBA Central on Twitter. "That's what the frustrating part of it is. Talking about what's gonna happen next season. And us 'building.' That's not what I'm here to do, especially at this stage of my career. 
"We pretty much fallen out of the race for the 10th spot," Lillard said his team's loss to the Clippers on Sunday. "I love to play, I love the competition and I haven't been ready to give that up. But it does come a point in time when do you stop putting your competitive nature out front." 
Fans can certainly feel for Lillard, who is definitely one of the league's biggest stars who had little to no help throughout his career in Portland. Unfortunately, this is how things are. The Blazers will have to once again retool their roster, but they must&nbsp;take Dame's mood into account.

NBA News: Damian Lillard sends strong warning to Blazers' front office

For years, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/NBA-News-Damian-Lillard-calls-himself-the-second-greatest-shooter-of-all-time-20221219-0006.html" target="_blank">NBA</a> fans have debated whether <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/nba-rumors-damian-lillard-reveals-he-almost-joined-the-lakers-20221013-0003.html" target="_blank">Damian Lillard</a> should leave the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/NBA-News-Damian-Lillard-picks-a-player-to-win-an-NBA-Championship-with-20221211-0046.html" target="_blank">Portland Trail Blazers</a> or not. Some claim he needs to leave to win a ring, while others believe that staying loyal is actually more respectable. 
Whatever the case, it's hard to argue that Lillard is one of the greatest scorers of all time. Unfortunately, he's had to coexist with several other all-time greats, so his trophy cabinet&nbsp;&mdash; even for individual awards&nbsp;&mdash; is pretty much empty. 
Nonetheless, that doesn't mean <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/NBA-Records-Damian-Lillard-and-every-player-who-has-scored-70-points-20230227-0017.html" target="_blank">his career</a> has been a failure. If anything, he feels like he's quite accomplished, and that's why he thinks that today's ring culture is only hurting the narrative around the league. 
<h2>Damian Lillard Puts NBA Ring Culture On Blast</h2> 
"The NBA I play in now&nbsp;is not the NBA I came into," Lillard said on The Old Man &amp; The Tree. "I play for the love of the game, I want the competition. I want to know what it feels like to win. I want to see my teammates do well; I enjoy the bonding part of it. Now it's like., 'regular season don't count. Get a ring' &mdash; What is this?" 
"I was talking after a game like a week ago. They was asking me about 'Dame, but like to win a ring?'&nbsp;Bro, I don't need to prove to y'all that I want to win a ring. Why the hell do I play? I understand we play to win championships&nbsp;&mdash; we can't keep acting like nothing matters, the rest of the stuff, the journey doesn't matter," Lillard said.

Of course, we would all love to watch a guy like Lillard win a championship his way, but that has rarely happened, especially in today's NBA. Even so, no one can take anything away from him, and he's still a superstar in this league.

Damian Lillard blasts NBA ring culture in epic rant

Boston Celtics will host <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/NBA-News-Damian-Lillard-calls-out-his-teammates-amid-tough-stretch-20230106-0006.html" target="_blank">Portland Trail Blazers</a>&nbsp;today in a 2022/23 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/Watch-Oklahoma-City-Thunder-vs-Phoenix-Suns-online-free-in-the-US-TV-Channel-and-Live-Streaming-20230307-0031.html" target="_blank">NBA</a> regular season game.

The Boston Celtics, after 118-114 against the Cleveland Cavaliers, accumulated their third consecutive defeat, and that increased the difference with the leaders <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/Charles-Barkley-predicts-the-Bucks-to-win-the-NBA-Finals-again-20230303-0007.html" target="_blank">Milwaukee Bucks</a>. Of course, they want to recover from and end this losing streak with a victory that will once again put them in contention for the leadership in the East. 
And although it seems that they have an easy game since their rivals are in the 10th position of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nba/Paul-George-makes-shocking-claim-about-LeBron-James-Michael-Jordan-and-Luka-Doncic-20230307-0004.html" target="_blank">Western Conference</a>, the Celtics should not be overconfident, since the Portland Trail Blazers are tough opponents. After several weeks fighting for the precious 10th place, they have finally obtained it and of course now everything possible to keep it.
