Damian Lillard reportedly requested another meeting with Blazers owner Paul Allen
"I hear that he is asking for another meeting," an NBA front-office source told me on Thursday
After being selected in the All-NBA 1st team, Damian Lillard requested another meeting with Blazers owner Paul Allen.
Per Oregon Live, Lillard is a nice player. A superb offensive player. And he's carried a Blazers roster that is marginal outside of guard CJ McCollum. But if he's one of the five best players in the NBA, then the Blazers first-round sweep in the NBA Playoffs is a bigger catastrophe than we previously imagined. Also, it would signal that Portland GM Neil Olshey not getting Lillard a supporting cast should be elevated from sin to cardinal sin.
"I hear that he is asking for another meeting," an NBA front-office source told me on Thursday.
In fact, Lillard may have already requested a follow-up meeting with owner Paul Allen, the source indicated. Apparently, the source said, Lillard's agent Aaron Goodwin is whispering as much. If so, great. Because Goodwin might seize on the good news and utilize Thursday's All-NBA announcement to push that Allen-Lillard meeting into fruition.
