Dame asks for trade (And there it is) (6 Viewers)

[blazerfan11]

A young, "win-now" team with more forwards or centers than they need, and wants something Miami has that Portland doesn't want.

"League sources?" Duh, bitch. That tweet doesn't even make sense. Like dude needs some inside source to know that? It's fucking obvious. "League sources." LMFAO

 

[Mediocre Man]

I have been convinced for months that if Dame is traded, the best Blazer fans could hope for would be a meh return. That has been the historical pattern after a franchise player asks to be traded. And most dranchise player who ask to be traded do so well before they are 33 years old. And most are taller than 6'2

all those posters dreaming about giant "hauls" from a Dame trade will probably be the posters screaming loudest when the trade is announced

It seems like Miami, but I’m being told it’s likely a 3rd team involved. Herro, Lowry, Jovic, Martin 3rd team assets, picks

I've been out of the general NBA loop, but does that describe *any* NBA team?

 

[BBert]

I predict trade offers are laughable and Joe tells Dame I can't do it and Dame being a reasonable individual understands amd says, "ok I'll stay" and Joe proceeds to make win now moves with Dame.

[Snaps fingers] Wake up!

Might be more enjoyable on Miami Beach than Astoria. But I guess that is a matter of preference, I’m sure some would rather pound Astorian sand.

Think of the business opportunities that Dame will have on the East Coast. His endorsements will be crazy like....good for him!
Maybe he can stay there a run for Governor of Florida some day? Isn't he a staunch dem?

 

[Mediocre Man]

Will be shocked if a young center doesn’t come back

 

[LayneStaley]

Honestly the young guys could use a Caleb Martin, dude plays hard on BOTH ends.

 

[LayneStaley]

From where?

From where?

How would I know. Look at my avatar

Pretty much. But that team has to have something the Blazers want.

 

[HansenYang]

I cant get this to load. What's it say?

I could see Houston getting involved. They purportedly want some solid players to help add some winning structure. Herro/Martin could be possible good additions for them. Not sure what we could get out of Houston, but an asset is an asset.

I was just looking for a guess.

I’m not sure which party he identifies as and don’t want to make this too political but I think it would be an upgrade regardless.

 

[Fogojam]

Sounds like a dispute on the claim that he told them on Monday with a sprinkle of "he'll go wherever we send him, not just Miami"

 

[illmatic99]

oh shut up, Joe.

 

[HansenYang]

Will be shocked if a young center doesn’t come back

Herro, Martin & Nurk for Ayton makes some sense

 

[Predator]

Great now do your fucking job and get us a kings ransom, Clownin Joe Cronin.

 

[LayneStaley]

Does Ayton fit with scoot/Sharpe?

Sure I think Sharpe is a big time video game player too.

FIFY

 

[Mr. Robot]

commited to winning, for gods sake, total rebuild must happen you stupid fucks

He can't just outright say that....they still want to sell season tickets lol.

 

[Hoopguru]

As long as the Blazers are a wholly owned subsidiary of Paul's estate and managed by the Vulcan property conglomerate we will struggle in contending except for a streak of luck.....

 

[SheedSoNasty]

I hope we get more for Dame than we got for Clyde.

Im pretty sure Otis Thorpe is old AF now. He might be a good 15th man.

 

[Natebishop3]

My only hope is that Joe sticks with the same mentality that he has had about the 3rd pick, and not sell Dame for a bunch of shit contracts.

Hold out if necessary.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Dame made a lot of comments about wanting to retire in Portland for someone who just requested a trade.

Noticeably missing are the Texas Turncoat style comments about this

The Miami Madame?

 

[Mediocre Man]

Great now do your fucking job and get us a kings ransom, Clownin Joe Cronin.

Why is Cronin being held responsible for Olshey’s failures?
