Dame asks for trade (And there it is) (3 Viewers)

[illmatic99]

this is a real possibility according to me if we want to compete

brown is an upcoming FA who will leave for nothing. would be a really dumb move.

 

[Hoopguru]

Behind this feels like the subtle notion that this could actually end up being a great thing for us.

Never thought I’d say it…

The problem is Joes been saying that teams knowing well he going to help Dame get to Miami. Joe will not let this go to long he wants a fresh start with the meeting the Vulcan qtrly goals that end in 90.

Not any worse then the other poo poo platter deals rumored. We could pay him more than anyone else. Not sure if we should or would.

 

[PDXFonz]

Wouldn’t Dame want to play in PHX with fellow ring chaser KD?

Could we realistically make Dame and Nurk to PHX for Ayton work?

 

[BBert]

oh shut up, Joe.

He has to say that, and mean it, or other teams will think they can just bend us over. If it were me, I'd hold out as long as necessary whether Dame ended up sitting or whatever.

Joe Cronin is trying to make Damian Lillard the bad guy.

FUCK JOE CRONIN.

As he should...Who cares about a single player, this about building a team and Dame is making it difficult. He is the bad guy at this moment.

risk not worth taking.

FUCK JOE CRONIN.

Dame did a pretty good job of that himself.

he will re-sign with boston (although hes given the impression that hes not very happy there, but money talks and theyre contenders)

if boston wants dame, they can extend brown and work on a sign & trade (if thats what would make brown happy)

Looks like same regurgitated shit offer from Miami

 

[Hoopguru]

Dame is much too decent a person for Florida. His children won't be allowed to learn their own history in Florida schools.

He can afford to send his kids to private school, one that doesn't 100% adhere to State School policies.

 

[bemac]

Joe Cronin was in a shit position from a PR standpoint. He played a game of chicken with Dame and he's winning...Damn fine job for the guy hired to build a team in a small market.

Hell he could afford to have his kids fly to Portland for school each day and return back to Miami for the night lol.

How would I know. Look at my avatar

Cast kangaroo....lmao! I never put the two together......

Bros are we going to boo Dame? I’m going to ask this multiple times in many threads over many days… So don’t get frustrated if you see this question a few times.

Some will, but is he going to become somewhat of a public enemy from being such a public hero?

No

your definition of "winning" is bizarre.

tanking consecutive seasons, giving up veteran talent for shitty draft picks, running the best player who wanted to win HERE out of town... is not my definition of winning.

Fuck that shit. Miami needs to find acceptable assets for Herro, not Portland.....and they won't be able to IMO.

 

[Hoopguru]

Well beyond the Miami Heat? are we trading him to Barcelona?

 

[Chris Craig]

Looks like same regurgitated shit offer from Miami

Miami isn't even trying to find a third team? Portland has to? What a joke.

 

[TBpup]

I'm curious as to how Joe is trying to make Dame the bad guy?

 

[Wheels]

good

 

[Hoopguru]

Miami must sell their soul if they want Dame Lillard!
Include the coach to be our new GM.

 

[TBpup]

 

[Predator]

I hope no team wants Tyler Herro, that would be great

[tykendo]

One man’s garbage is another man’s treasure. Tyler Herro and Duncan Robinson don’t fit our team because we have too many guards. But there may be another team that places more value on H

I'm curious as to how Joe is trying to make Dame the bad guy?

Joe is a scumbag. Everything this cheesedick has said about wanting to build around Dame is a LIE. It's unforgivable. This is an F-ing nightmare.

 

[Freshtown]

even after all this, you still believe him? come on man

maybe he learned his lesson from all the shit he took from last years trades. After all, if he was sell-low joe still, wouldn’t he have let the #3 pick go more easily?
