Los Angeles Lakers targeting Damian Lillard

Damian Lillard may be at the center of trade rumors linking him to the Los Angeles Lakers, but general manager Neil Olshey doesn't seem inclined to put his superstar point guard up for sale. "As much as I love LeBron [James], he doesn't get to pick his teammates," Olshey told Peter Socotch of NBC Sports Northwest. "That's not how it works. This isn't the world of sending a couple of texts out and see who wants to run with us..." But according to Stephen A. Smith of ESPN (h/t NESN's Dakota Randall), Lillard would be "open to leaving, even though he loves being in Portland."
