I think Lillard made them scarier, as it was their offence that was their issue - their defence is strong
Given the controversy between the Blazers and Heat around the Dame stuff, I doubt the Blazers would help out the Heat unless they have by far the best offer.

They were 14th in the regular season and gave up 127ppg vs Miami in the playoffs. Losing their second best defensive player isn’t exactly going to help matters.
Jrue is closer to Derrick White than he is Damian Lillard.

Jrue's 3 playoff runs in MIL had good per game averages of 18ppg 8apg 6rpg but on terrible efficiency at only 40% FG% 30% 3PT% 47.6% TS%. His effectiveness / efficiency is woeful when it comes to big games in the playoffs. He has some stellar regular season numbers in games that don't matter but struggles mightly when the games that do matter come around. His impact in the post-season is not what is expected of an elite guard. It is closer to what is expected of a guard like Derrick White or Marcus Smart.
