    Lillard to the Bucks
    The Trail Blazers traded guard Damian Lillard to play alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo with the Bucks as part of a three-team deal that also included the Suns.

      I'm surprised he stayed in PDX as long as he did.

                        Well he is what he is but at least they can hide Lillard on the defensive end a little better now that he's on a team that plays defense.

                          When it comes to putting a team together with chemistry in mind, there's literally no thought process needed to be a GM. Just get the best players on your team.

                            Yup that was pretty much the thought process behind Durant going to the dubs

                                He’s an upgrade from Jrue and I think it’ll keep Giannis from handling the ball beyond the 3 point line to jack threes.
                                Milwaukee is a nothing franchise without Giannis so it served the purpose of appeasing him.
                                But if Lilliard doesn’t stay healthy the wheels will fall off quick

                                      they will have inflated spreads early on before the roster and stars best figure out how to play together

                                            The Bucks backing up the Brinks truck to keep Giannis from whining and dialing up United Van Lines.

                                              How can you say Lillard is overrated when him and McCollum were carrying the team on their backs for years?

                                              He is past his prime but I'm glad he's going to a contender. He wasted too many years in Portland.

                                                Damian Lizard gonna turn the Bucks into real contenders now if he has anything left. When you go to a new team it usually gives you new life to play hard.

                                                  Carried them where?
                                                  They are 4-7 in playoff series with Lillard.

                                                  He's just another low % chucker.
                                                  Dime a dozen these days.

                                                  In the playoffs he gets even worse.
                                                  41% fg, yikes.
                                                  Garbage player.

                                                    Disagree w this

                                                    They might get past first rd this time but will fall short of finals again

                                                      They are 4-7 in playoff series with Lillard.

                                                      He's just another low % chucker.
                                                      Dime a dozen these days.

                                                      In the playoffs he gets even worse.
                                                      41% fg, yikes.
                                                      Garbage player.
                                                      Most if not all of those losses are to better teams where Portland was the underdog

                                                      He never had more than 1 other All-Star on his team and frequently none

                                                      Low percentage FG is what you'd expect for someone in that situation

                                                      You can't win a championship like that when other teams are creating superteams

                                                      He is still one of the clutchest players of this generation

                                                      Ended 2 series on a shot at the buzzer. Who else has done that ?

                                                        He is past his prime but I'm glad he's going to a contender. He wasted too many years in Portland.
                                                        Laker says everyone is overrated. There's no pleasing him.
