This article is a short and informative article on the information about the Lillard trade. It goes through trade senecios with different teams and what the Portland trailblazers are looking to get for Lillard. It also give insight on what teams lead the way in the trade for Dame. The text was an enjoyable to read, however there are endless advertisements on the page that are extremely distracting to the reader. The tone of the article seems to very neutral not choosing any sides. all the content is up to date and relevant in NBA news today. The lead into the article is very clear and concise and includes the major sections of the article. All the facts and sources are current and up to date, but these are rumors and speculation however and only written by one person. This can lead to some bias when writing an article or a false representation of facts or evidence. The article also includes a video that helps explain what the article is about, furthermore giving more understanding to the reader. overall, I thought the article was accurate and good. I would say the strengths of this article would be how Indepth they got into trade speculation. I think the article can work on more of an explanation about the situation as a whole. I would consider this article well developed.
