The Trail Blazers point guard has been the subject of trade rumors since the end of Portland's season, with the Knicks, Lakers, 76ers B.J. Upton Jersey and Heat pegged as potential destinations.

But, not so fast, Lillard says.Speaking before Team USA basketball practice Wednesday, the superstar guard said there's nothing to talk about until there's something to talk about.

Damian Lillard on trade speculation:"It's a lot of things being said, sometimes words being put in my mouth when I haven't said anything. It's been a lot of talk. I don't really have nothing to say to you guys about it."

At this point, its a lot of things being Roberto Perez Jersey said, sometimes words being put in my mouth, and I havent said anything. Ithink, it should be all of the people who've covered me since Ive been in the NBA, they know that if theres something to be said or if I Michael Brantley Jersey think something or have something to say, Im going to say it and Im going to stand on it. Like I said, its been a lot of talk and nobody'sheard what I've said, nobody's heard me say any of these things.

But anything that I have to say, I'm going to say it directly to Neil (Olshey)and Im going to addre s it Manny Ramirez Jersey directly with my team. I dont really have nothing to say to you guys about it. Everything that I need to say and that I feel has been said to Neil. So, there's really nothing else that I have to say about it.
