The Portland Trail Blazers “remain committed to building a winner around” star guard Damian Lillard, GM Joe Cronin said in a statement Monday. Cronin said he met with Lillard and his agent Aaron Goodwin on Monday and the trio “had a great dialogue.”
’s instant analysis:Time to back up words with action. Cronin has said some version of this statement at every player-acquisition period since he took over for Neil Olshey, but has done little but slash payroll and acquire young and promising talent.Meanwhile, Lillard is not getting younger and the Blazers still look nowhere close to a contender, let alone a candidate to make the postseason.
Lillard reached the conference finals once, in 2019, when Portland was swept by the Golden State Warriors. The seven-time All-NBA selection has made the postseason in eight of his 11 seasons in the league.
