The Portland Trail Blazers and Miami Heat are still deadlocked in trade talks surrounding Damian Lillard. Lillard’s only desired destination is Miami, while Portland has no interest in any offer the Heat has made.
But the Blazers and Miami aren’t the only two NBA franchises searching for a blockbuster move.
Blazers trade Damian Lillard to Heat, land James Harden in four-team proposal
James Harden is pulling another James Harden, demanding a trade from the Philadelphia 76ers. This comes on the relatively recent heels of a messy situation in which he demanded to leave Houston for the Brooklyn Nets only to clamor for a trade out of Brooklyn less than a calendar year later.
The Trail Blazers, Heat and Sixers are nowhere near finding any sort of concrete deal to send away or acquire their respective desired stars. But maybe there’s an option that makes everyone happy.
