    Hopefully they blow that shit up so we get a really good draft pick in 2028 or whenever.

    No one will give up a solid young prospect. I see him fetching a middle of the 1st round pick and an expiring contract.

    Unless there’s a team that’s in win now mode and their window is short, they might overpay

    2 years early cap relief on his contract, a 1st for a team that will be very old/rebuilding by then, and in a small market so no appeal to attract free agents, and a young recent 1st round pick. Would hardly say it's nothing.

    So the Bucks have won 5 straight with wins against the Rockets, Bulls, Pacers, Hornets, and Heat.
    Lillard doing what we all know he can do when asked to carry a team dismantling the Heat singlehandedly.
    The Bucks are now back to .500 with a 9-9 record after a dismal start. They have responded by winning 7 of 8 after starting the season 2-8.

    All this without Middleton who is still out after double ankle surgery over the summer. Word is Kris Middleton is back to playing 5 on 5 and should be back within the next few games. This is of primary concern after Giannis sat out last game with knee discomfort which might be just a rest game?

    I’m new here, so I was just wondering….Do we have a thread for the new team of every former Blazer who demanded a trade and tanked his trade value, or just Dame?

    Only top 75 of all time NBA players that demand a trade and tank their value.

    I think the Melo thread is still alive and kicking somewhere around here!

    My Xmas wish list is that somehow, Dame finds a way to buy the Blazers and build a contender in Portland...first owner/franchise player in NBA history...I'm sure he can get a few buddies in on the deal. You just know he wants to come home.

    He's not giving up his new contract with Canadian powerhouse "Sudbury Five" anytime soon...he's sort of been on a world tour since his Blazer days. Keeps getting waived by small Euro league teams. He's the Moses Brown of the Euro league!

    Dame is an utter bloke of the highest degree. He is just wired differently.

    He wants to continue owning the Blazers even after his career as a basketball player is over
