I'm very cool with u bro
Hear me out bro
U know Damian Lillard are getting older right?
What other teams had better package than Magic??
Lakers?
Nets ?
U wanna take Westbrook contract + two unprotected picks ?
U wanna take Kyrie Irving ? Along with draft picks?
Nuggets won't trade Jamal Murray
Thunder won't trade SGA
Knicks doesn't have assets to get him
Mavericks doesn't have assets
Magic won't trade key players Wagner & Banchero & Suggs & Anthony they don't have too not for Damian Lillard
Magic can offer Fultz Hampton Isaac Ross maybe two or three unprotected first round picks & two picks swap
If Blazers want rebuild u would want these picks moving forward

Portland resigned Nurkic and they traded for J Grant, to compete with Lillard, so little chance they take a trade offer for him, unless it's a jackpot.
Orlando has to include Anthony or Wagner for Portland to consider trading Lillard.

Orlando would have to give up either Franz or Banchero, plus Suggs and Anthony, plus 3 1st Rd picks, and 3 pick swaps for Lillard. Not worth it for Orlando, we would have to give up so much that even having Lillard wouldn't help.

If you want to know how I value Dame, consider this:
If Orlando offered Wagner, Suggs, and two unprotected firsts, I’d say no. And it’s probably a pretty easy no for me.

I’d rather keep Dame than trade him for junk. If you won’t include your 4 best prospects, then just stop. You can’t get an all star caliber player.
Fultz, Hampton, Isaac, and Ross barely have a net positive value. Heck, those 4 combined might be negative value.
If you want good players, you must give up good things. You can’t trade trash for treasures.
