Damian Lillard: ‘Excited for my next chapter’ after being traded to the Milwaukee Bucks
www.oregonlive.comThe longtime star guard said on social media he loves the city of Portland and Trail Blazers fans "will be addressed truthfully" and to "stay tuned."
Whether you like basketball or not, the Damian Lillard trade today sees Portland lose a stalwart of class, low drama and accountability in a media age of pithy, immature sound bytes end egomaniacs. Personally wish the guy all the best in Milwaukee and will be rooting for the Bucks in the east!

honestly kinda glad this saga is over
For sure, definitely since they got the 2rd draft pick it was move up or move on for both parties.
Dame can’t possibly complain about his team talent and possibilities, though Mil is not south beach I see much more chance of him winning with Giannis than Miami.
Portland got a solid haul and can move on.
Every finals, I run my own game… “Spot the Trailblazer”:
“Hey, didn’t he used to play for Portland? Oh! Him too! And that guy!”
Of course everyone leaves small markets, if they don’t catch lightning in a bottle like Giannis or Jockic.
Blazer owners have the only major sports team (love soccer but MLS is still not yet on the tier in America, give Messi 5 years and maybe?) In the city, seats are full and they get a playoff round or two almost every year for minimal cost, they’re very profitable and accumulating value while they setup to sell in decades for the big payoff. Throw in some tax deductions for giving away free seats that would go unused otherwise for low demand games and laugh on your tax return. When “losing” is winning.
Timbers probably sell out more than the Blazers tbh
More often and at 25,218 vs. 20,500, a higher capacity too!
How are the ticket prices though?
timbers army tix can be got for around $30 after all the seatgeek fees and nonsense
I’m sure you’re right at this point. Thorns too!
