Dame asks for trade (And there it is) (4 Viewers)

[Natebishop3]

Dame didn’t even call Joe himself. He had his agent do it.

Anyone want to revisit Dames tweet about Judas walking amongst us?

he apparently had an extended convo with billups last night

i must have seen wrong then

He mentioned San Antonio could be a 3rd team in the trade. Tyler Herro in San Antonio makes too much sense. The Spurs have all the picks in the world.

Honestly how hard is it for everyone to look for DROPPINGDIMES20 instead of every other fake account out there. I’ve seen almost every fake reposted in here when it takes 5 seconds to look LOL

Isnt that a fake one?

Also fake lol

Oh to have a transcript of that call.

It's not a great look if a conversation with the head coach is what pushes your "on the fence" star to demand out the next morning.

I see I haven’t missed anything crucial and my time spent dipping toes in a warmer part of the Pacific was time better spent.

It would have been even better spent getting a @Strenuus reacharound too

Droppingdimes27 had this last night. I saw it before going to sleep. There are lots of fakes running around right now, but 27 feels legit

 

[CJ_is_Gone]

Most likely.
The legit one has 'amateur NBA analyst' in the handle

 

[illmatic99]

that was it. this is fake?

Big Mouth Shot Billups is the leak.

 

[Mr. Robot]

real one is droppingdimes20 and possibly droppingdimes02 (which could be his reserve account)

droppingdimes50 has a lot of followers, but im not convinced its his account (hes had some misses there)

 

[maxiep]

for fucks sake. if you can't trust him with even the most basic function of the role, fire the guy.

Companies bring in advisors and consultants all the time, just for a fresh set of eyes. It's not a permanent thing, just something for this deal. Cronin has other strengths, negotiating may not be one of them. It really is a developed skill.

With the news of Sibonus extending this tweet from yesterday is relevant shows 27 is likely legit.

 

[CJ_is_Gone]

I dont think so. I dropped a couple of other tweets from him in the prior posts

 

[theprunetang]

I also feel pretty good about going through a lottery infused rebuild with Mike Schmitz on board.

29 other GMs don't need a consultant to negotiate on their behalf.

In my opinion, at least half do. And I'm not saying "negotiate", I'm saying hire them and advise. There are plenty of people who have negotiated with Pat Riley before, plenty of people who are media savvy (and who can win that war), and plenty of people who can help get out our message. It would be foolish to put it all on Joe. I trust him to manage the cap and evaluate the talent.

there's this one:

 

[Natebishop3]

there's this one:

He’s a RFA so I am skeptical of that.

 

[Strenuus]

I'm intrigued. 12 hours after, where do you guys stand on this. If Dame were to say "I'm coming back to Portland" would you forgive and forget?

Personally, I'm ready to move on and it'd be a slap in the face if he just did that.

Hell, even Pritchard had Tom Penn. Does that diminish KP?

 

[Tince]

Why do we believe this is a legit account?

 

[maxiep]

No reason to keep him.

[Natebishop3]

No reason to keep him.

Why not? He’s not old. He’s a really good defender. If his deal isn’t bad, I’d keep him just as an asset that could be traded.

 

[B-Roy]

that was it. this is fake?

fake

20 is the only real one. Also some of these fake ones just wait for the real one to post and then post something similar
