Dame asks for trade (And there it is)

[Natebishop3]

Mike Richman said on his most recent podcast that he reached out to a few sources that he trusts and that Dame to Miami is all but guaranteed. If we want Jaquez we will have to wait a month.

 

[blazerfan11]

I mean, he actually did nothing though.

I'm pretty sure he was involved in the Trail Blazers selecting three players in the 2023 draft.

The "did nothing" part is that he did nothing stupid. For that, I am grateful as a Trail Blazer fan.

Of course heat fans are now getting even more greedy and saying that they should get to keep Jovic, JJJ and Martin. I really hate that fanbase.

Nah, theres a fan tax. 5 FRPs and 3 of your players. Fuck them.

I really dont like that this is moving really fast. I thought it might, but I really dont like that it is.

Keep them. Give the Blazers Adebayo.

Yep. I think it's assuredly Miami at this point. The question will be how much and who is the third team for Herro.

I don't like it either. Cronin should be targeting ideal players from any team to add to the roster. Dealing with only Miami seems doomed to a mediocre at best return.

 

[THE HCP]

1000% truth.

It will always be 2nd behind the NFL....but this years playoffs viewership numbers were at an ALL TIME HIGH! I remember you were one of the ones talking about how nobody would watch the playoffs especially a Lakers/Warriors series.

 

[THE HCP]

Gonna be weird having a PG that tries to play D.

but can't hit a 3?

 

[blazerfan11]

He's got the balls to trade him.

Remember he cried for trading George Hill to the Pacers for Leonard. He'll do what's necessary.

Dejounte Murray? Gone.
Jakob Poeltl? Gone.

 

[bulls_with_booz]

came here to point, laugh, enjoy suffering etc

defense wins championships. Love Dame. He got two D’s in his name, none in his game. Most efficient 70 ever. But d wins ‘ships, and I think that we’ve seen that here. We can score all over the place the last decade, but we barely getting into playoffs and making light noise cuz our D sucks. Doesn’t change how I feel about Dame and how much I appreciate what he provided, but I realize we stuck in status quo and time for a change. Especially if he soured on us.

 

[blazerfan11]

We'll find out. Jaden Hardy couldn't hit threes for G-League Ignite (27%) then shot 40% for the Mavericks as a rookie.

I do agree with you...we WILL find out.

Training camp doesn’t start until September. I don’t think the 30-day rule is at all a deterrent here, aside from having to wait for the new player presser.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

It’s no disrespect to Dame, but he’s not a big-time creator. Scoot dishes and makes opportunities for other. Don’t lie, brah. You and I both know Dame can’t even properly lob oops. Cuz he’s a fire shooter. He’s trained to fix on the rim. Looking forward to the new dynamic cuz what we had wasn’t working. And that’s no disrespect to Dame. He wants out, let us get him out and try something new cuz the old way wasn’t working so it’s on us to do what we gotta do… to survive… And still I see no changes, can't a brother get a little peace?

 

[Propagandist]

Well that’s not true. He drafted a 19 year old replacement for our aging star.

I'm pretty sure he was involved in the Trail Blazers selecting three players in the 2023 draft.

What jerkoff replies.

It’s so forumy to interpret this that way. I was replying to Nate saying people were calling him a liar and saying that he didn’t do anything.

The point is the reason people are calling him a liar is not because he literally didn’t do anything when he drafted a wonderful human being named Scoot Henderson, people are calling him a liar because he didn’t make the moves to improve the team around Dame's timeline. And in that sense, he didn’t do anything.

I’m not giving my opinion, I’m just being factual.

 

[Propagandist]

Nah, we'll be OK without that. S2 already has members who are on youtube that nobody watches.

Lol

Jesus! Try hard much?

also experimenting blast from the past. Meyers Leonard??big tall white dudes?

[Eastoff]

What did it say?

 

[Blazers Roy]

It's possible, but I think if he, say, misses 135 games over the next two years (which is as many as he has the last two)... I think at some point even dumb owners would notice and say, "Hey... do we want to trade for a guy that has barely played the last four years, and is owed $125,000,000 over the remaining three years of his contract?"

Again... maybe. But (in this worst-case scenario) I think it would be unlikely.

Gordon Hayward dude.

There are 30 teams in the league, 32 after a possible expansion. Someone will pick him up.

 

[Mediocre Man]

That Dame will end up in Miami and Joe is shooting for .75 cents on the dollar instead of .50

Not sure that’s what it said, but it may as well have

Herro can’t be traded until Sunday? Dame until the 10th?

 

[BonesJones]

For someone who nobody watches, you sure are obsessed with us.

I imagine just like this pre-official FA period a trade can be "agreed to" but not official until all players are qualified to trade?

A friend (I know, but it’s true) and I are thinking about starting a podcast. The ones we’ve mocked up so far have completely gone off the rails. Turns out he and I have no filter

 

[TBpup]

Not to the level of Dame for sure. But he seems like he might be a more natural point guard right off the bat. He might actually be able to play some defense, and who knows, maybe helps the team win more while not being as good individually. No one knows, but I'm not going to question what a 19 year old kid, who by all accounts is a gym rat, and works tirelessly on his mistakes or shortcomings, can't do.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Nah, theres a fan tax. 5 FRPs and 3 of your players. Fuck them.

Please don't implode when we don't get 5 first round picks.

That sounds like a good time. How do we get copies of those mockups?
