Come on man, Ya'll act like your girlfriend just left you for another man. When Sheed wanted out we traded him for whatever, when Pippen asked for a trade they sent him to us for bench players. No one is trading for Dame when he doesn't want to be there and we holding on to him is making us look bad around the league. Move on from him, Ant and Scoot could be the best young combo at guard behind maybe Giddey/Shai. they're both young. they compliment each other, Scoot is a good defender and while Ant isn't, he isn't as bad as Dame who's maybe the worst defender in the entire league.
Aren't you fed up with watching him hiding on defense only to then launch a logo shot with 5 seconds into the shot clock? That's not basketball. Basketball is about a team, not one player, and when one player puts himself above the team (not sure he wasn't behind some managerial decisions we've made, like trading Hart) you're better off without him.
The thing is on one hand you act as if he's the center of your world, on the other hand you say he's a douche bag for wanting out. Get over it

What the hell are you talking about. Nobody's (or at least the vast majority arent) acting like their girlfriend just left, and very VERY few people say he's a douche bag for wanting out.

You're clearly not a Blazers fan, and you haven't been around Blazers fans. Most still love Dame. Most hope the best for Dame. Nobody is hurt over this. What most people do want is for the TEAM that they've rooted for long before Dame got there, to do what's best for the franchise.

Most here would be happy to see Dame go where he wants to go, if it were even somewhat fair for both sides. If he gave multiple teams for his list, there'd likely be ZERO backlash. The only pushback Blazers fans have given was the demand to one team only, and to a team with garbage for assets.

Now go away and stop pretending to be a Blazers fan

Lets be realistic, Dame is going to Miami, if you really respect him and you do (you mourn him) you'll grant him his wish. The question is, what can we get for Herro, if we flip him for two young promising players in area of need, plus the rest of the package from Miami, I would consider it a fair deal

one of Pat Riley's burner accounts

His wish was to sign a Supermax contract and stay in Portland. His wish was to earn in excess of $400 million. We granted his wish.

But here's the deal: You don't get to get the maximum amount of money AND the right to leave when and where to you want. It's either/or. The money means that you took money over flexibility. PERIOD.

So, let's be realistic. He has no leverage. He's under contract for 4 years. He'll go wherever he's traded and Cronin will get the most he can.

Sheed never asked for a trade. And certainly not to Atlanta. He wanted to stay and we had actually just won 8 out of 10 with a Miles/ZBo/Sheed frontline. That trade pissed me off.

We got two All Stars in return for Sheed... that's a solid return.

And I don't think Sheed requested a trade.

@THE HCP , I think I have discovered why this new guy is here; Pat Riley sent him!

Watching Shareef play for us pissed me off even more.

But I've got to say, watching Sheed's Pistons beat Shaq and Kobe in the finals made up for A LOT.

"joined: yesterday" Riles is that you? Or just a regular Heat fan?

More than a few think he’s a douchebag for asking out for one team after signing a supermax with us. I’d say half the fan base agrees.

That's basically what I was saying. Very few people think he's a douche bag for wanting out (which is what that guy was saying). The only real backlash was because he wanted 1 team and that 1 team had garbage for assets
 
Anywhere but Miami at this point (for me). Members of the media, Goodwin, Miami, and even Lillard would have to quickly shift their narrative if Lillard is to keep his earned reputation.
I'd like to see that.
 
I guess Ben Simmons looks rip roaring ready to go for training camp in Brooklyn. The Nets are hoping to run more transition offense.

Better load another bowl of Cope-ium Miami fan. You're not getting Dame because you tried to do us dirty. Most of the fan base realized Dame was gone when we drafted Scoot. We wanted Brooklyn trade for assets, but Miami FAIR TRADE for Dame's sake. Then Goodwin, Dame, Riley, Miami media and Fans went to work and now most of us want to see Miami burn to the ground and never sniff a ring ever again. Y'all overplayed YOUR HAND. If you had just come legit, he'd probably already be in a Heat Jersey. Take out your rage on Riley and Goodwin for screwing the pooch.

starting to wonder if a trade anywhere is happening? unless we settle for a very crappy Miami deal? how desperate is Cronin/mgmt to move Dame before camp begins?

Hopefully, not even slightly.

Dame would be a major upgrade. Brunson is a great player but people forget how good Dame is.

You got this backwards my little Uber driver…… Brunson is a GOOD player, Dame is GREAT.
