Great news. We are lucky sports fans to have a guy like him on our side.

 

[Blazers Roy]

When you're a blazers fan and you're trying to push scary thoughts out

 

[julius]

Yeah but you notice he didn't say anything about the fans of the city!

HE HATES US AND THINKS WE'RE BUMS!

How can you be Unhappy with all that money? Really, who cares about the Ring. I would sit on the bench for 82+games to earn a minimum NBA money and I will be happy.

Fixed!

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Fixed!

Should be "not unsappy", cause that's some sappy stuff from Dame!

I would carry the teams bags to and from the bus for half the NBA min, AND I'd laugh at all of HCP's joke.

I don't fix @MarAzul's typo and I'm an asshole, I fix this typo and I'm an asshole.

Geez.

And?
You would think you would get it by now...

I do, I do. I'm just surprised it took you rocket scientists so long to get it.

...but he is unhappy with the lack of notoriety the WNBA receives!

It's good that he put out this statement, but it is also a bit concerning to me.

Some may see it as semantics, but I see a huge difference between saying "I'm happy" and saying "I'm not unhappy". I think the "Not Unhappy" statement appears to have some apathy creeping in and is much easier to transition to a "Unhappy" position.

It was specifically a reply to Quick asking him his response to people suggesting that he was unhappy here. It makes absolutely perfect sense for him to say he's not unhappy, because he's simply saying that the speculation is baseless.

Did he dare just refute the great Steven A Smith? I mean I can get him being a little unhappy with Davis leaving and it could be disheartening that Portland just cant really get another star to help him and maybe CJ out. But it is good that Dame loves it here and wants to be a Blazers and also made Steven A Smith expose himself as the fraud he is again.

Ya I was thinking same until i saw the video. Quick asked him "are you unhappy..."

See the link I posted above.

The answer was appropriate.

No, just you Julius. He hates you. Just kidding

 

[tykendo]

Lillard is awesome. And you know he will work hard to get even better. He's nobody's Biotch(no need to list names). He's the Alpha Dog.

 

[tykendo]

I also think Dame understands the situation of the cap. But everyone needs to step their game up, and I believe they "ALL" have it in them to do so. Even Meyers. I have no doubt that the Blazers will bring it every night. That! I guaranty. This team has talent that continues to develop.

 

[tykendo]

LA Media Whores already spin doctoring every word he says. LA Media Whore Israel Gutierrez said "Lillard's lookin' to go somewhere, just doesn't want to ask for a trade". Dame could go buy a smoothy, and they'd say, "see, he wants to be in Venice Beach". It would just be nice to hear a National reporter just ONCE say, "You know, I get wanting to stay in Portland. Great fans, young team, packed house everynight, and beautiful part of the country Bitches". But I guess that would take too much research. Lazy analysis as usual.

If Lillard was unhappy he wouldn't have been at the predraft workouts and the Summer League.

I agree, but i'm just sick of the noise. I know, don't listen to it. But it would be cool to hear someone stick up for what is a fantastic basketball city.

Dame looked pretty damn happy in every clip and pic I've seen of him hanging and coaching up the summer league players for the last week.

That can only mean one thing: Dame knows he's being traded

You know I would, just wait till TBF is a mainstream media provider.
