On July 2nd, 2023, Damian Lillard officially requested a trade from the Portland Trail Blazers. It’s now July 25th and...still no trade. For Trail Blazers fans, this is a little bit like waiting for surgery. You don’t want to do it. You wish it weren’t happening. But if we have to go through this could we just get it over? How long is this going to take, anyway?
That’s the subject of today’s Blazer’s Edge Mailbag.
Dave,
I read/hear a lot about how long it’s taking to make the Dame trade — it really hasn’t been that long since the request, especially given it’s the off season and not much else is happening.
