While the Portland Trail Blazers GM Joe Cronin respects veteran guard Damian Lillard’s desire to go to the Miami Heat, he insists he won’t make that trade unless he gets the right package.
“What the rest of his career looks like matters to us and we care about that,” Cronin said. “At the same time, we have to do what’s best for us and we’ve got to find the right deal and find the right makeup of the team that we’re going to go forward with.
“So you hope that you can find that perfect situation where that lines up and he goes to a place that he wants to and you get the best return possible. It’s complicated, and usually it doesn’t work out just like that.”
