Why Each Team Does This:

Miami Heat: This is the perfect opportunity for the heat to start fresh. With the Trailblazers having a good pick this upcoming draft in a stacked draft, Dame being firm on staying and the Trailblazers backing Dame and wanting to build him one more championship team a great fit would be Jimmy Butler. Having two lottery picks in this upcoming draft with a young core of Simons, Sharpe, Herro, and Bam the team could look scary in a few years. This move also doesn't pressure the heat to move on from Lowry's contract since he has one more year left and could be a mentor to Sharpe and Simons and also a contract of Robinson since they are not trying to compete.

Portland TrailBlazers: They finally add that two-way wing Lillard has been missing his entire career. With this move, resigning Grant, and a couple more moves like getting a more versatile big, they could become a top powerhouse team in the West if not the league.

Starting Lineups:

Miami Heat: PG: Simons SG: Herro SF: Sharpe PF: Jovic C: Adebayo

Portland Trailblazers: PG: Lillard SG: Thybulle SF: Butler PF: Grant C: Nurkic
