#287: Damian Lillard May Go To Toronto?!
from The Atlantic Files · host Alex Fischbein, Dennis Clausen and Mike Bash
This week, on episode 287 of The Atlantic Files, reportedly, the Toronto Raptors are the frontrunners to land Damian Lillard all of a sudden, Buddy Hield is now on the trade block with the Dallas Mavericks rumored as the frontrunners, and we finish our divisional preview series with the Atlantic Division. Damian Lillard's trade sage continues but more and more teams keep entering the mix. Now, all of a sudden, the Toronto Raptors are the frontrunners to land the superstar guard. What does that mean for the rest of the league and especially the Miami Heat?! We give our thoughts on whether or not he'll actually end up in Canada or if it's just a smokescreen before he lands in Miami. Speaking of trades, Buddy Hield is now firmly on the trade block. The Indiana Pacers are shopping him and he's open to a trade to a place where he can sign an extension. Right now, the Dallas Mavericks are the best fit, but it's unclear whether they have the pieces that the Pacers truly want. We talk about where he should go and if he'll actually find a new home before the season starts. Finally, we wrap up our divisional preview series by taking a look at the Atlantic Division. We give our thoughts on all of the deals that went down and which Atlantic team might surprise everyone. With this division, it brings our divisional preview series to an end and we will be posting all of our previews stitched together into one big preview episode later on!
