Damian Lillard is the heartbeat of the Portland side and is performing better in the season than Davis. Broussard pointed out that the Lakers superstar is younger than Lillard but fans don?t view it as a solid reason. Fans hilariously underlined the underperforming duo of Westbrook and Davis to imply it was a bad deal for the Blazers.

There is no good reason for the Blazers to let go of Damian Lillard, according to many. And with the performances of the current Lakers squad, it becomes an easy decision for Blazers. Fans also pointed out injury issues of Davis, giving more reasons to stay away from such a deal.
