As the Portland Trail Blazers try to control the damage caused by their recent coaching hire, speculation about Damian Lillard's apparent unrest continues to increase.

Trade suggestions and scenario shave become a hot topic, and ESPN's Jay Williams was no stranger to those conversations.

In one of his more recent talks, he produced a new scenario for the Lillard sweepstakes: a partnership with Zach LaVine in Chicago.

"I would love to see Damian Lillard and Zach Lavine in Chicago. One of the most lethal backcourts that can ever exist. Put these dudes together."

With Dame being a shooter and LaVine being more of a slasher, it'd be a pretty ideal pairing. If the Bulls can manage to surround the backcourt combo with shooters and defenders, it could be enough for the franchise to get back into the Championship conversation.

Of course, questions remain about the likelihood of the scenario. Are the Blazers close to even considering a Lillard trade? Do the Bulls even have enough to offer in a deal?

There is much to consider in the whole ordeal, as Dame is one of the most sought-after superstars in the NBA.

Still, it's interesting to think about what it might be like to see Dame rocking a Bulls jersey.
