I think hes starting to rapidly decline + injury. Didnt same thing happen to other players like Deron Williams? I think we have seen with other stars one nagging injury changes them for the worst forever.

Curry missed all but 5 games of the season he was 31, like Dame. How much has he "declined"?

for fuck sakes, 6 months ago Dame averaged 34 & 10 in a playoff series with a .660 TS%; a 41.6% assist rate; and a 5.4 astR/trnR ratio. He hasn't declined 40% in 6 months....it's just loopy to believe he has

It's okay. Sometimes people have a hard time not being myopic.

Dame is not on Curry's level at all...

how could you even get that as a point I was arguing?

they both are athletes and they both have bodies. Curry is more than 2 years older than Dame and doing very well. And, unlike Dame, Curry has had several serious injuries in his career. Any one of which could have hammered his trajectory more than Dame's injured abdomen

but if you found my post cryptic, I'll be more direct: believing Dame is already in major decline because of age is loopy...IMO of course, no offense meant

and I've noticed that many of those arguing he is declining have been Dame critics for a long while and are also on the 'trade-Dame' train. That's not coincidence, it's agenda....again IMO

im not sure wither honestly. I think we may have to wait unril its confirmed.
But thats why i think we should tNk now. Maybe its confirmed by the deadline?


There are some really knowledgeable people here about this. Maybe we can lean on them a bit? ;)

@hoopsjock ? @BonesJones ?

help some BlazerBros out? :)


If we tried tanking now how does our lottery protected pick work out?

If we make the playoffs, our pick goes to Chicago and our obligations for the trade are done. We then have all our future picks back with no restrictions.

If we miss the playoffs, we keep the pick and this same scenario plays out the next 4 years until it is conveyed or if we don't make the playoffs at all it eventually turns into 2nd round picks.

If the goal was to free up picks to trade we'd have to change the protections with Chicago somehow. This would likely involve giving them cash, or some sort of other compensation like a 2nd round pick or something, or just unprotecting it if they agreed (no reason for them not to). If we kept the pick we could trade whoever we drafted once we select them but not before unless the protection is changed with Chicago.
 
So you are comparing them only on the fact they are both human beings and both athletes? Why not compare him to Greg Oden or Tracy Mcgrady then? You also said curry has had more serious injures then dame also but curry didn’t go through these huge piss poor stretches so why compare them at all? dame apparently doesn’t need surgery on while curry did and sat out a season and returned well. While dame doesn’t need any surgery to rehab from and is shooting his worst percentage of his career even worse than his his rookie year .there is no way that is all injury also..we didn’t even hear much of this injury at the start of the season all until he started having constant poor performances over and over. And all players start to decline their 30s some more than other i find it “loopy” you find that a strange concept.

What’s the point of comparing him to curry then? I can compare him to Players who had their career end by injures and use the same logic” they they are both players and both have bodies”? I haven’t been on the trade dame trade thread till recently..

LOL..you are the one who said Dame is "rapidly declining". Why don't you explain what it is, specifically, about Dame that make you see a player rapidly declining physically

he's 31, not 41

Well just look at his stats from a season ago to now. Specifically his shooting percentage is much worse. That’s a pretty drastic rapid decline from a statistical standpoint. And this injury ..we didn’t even hear much of until after the olympics it’s was mentioned to explain his poor performance then, okay well then there was at least sometime between the olympics where the injury could of been addressed and the season start but the team clearly didn’t think much of then. we pretty much heard nothing from the team and even dame said he feels fine several games in and we assumed it was just a slump.. until the slump just kept going and going and now we are hearing it’s the injury again. I just can’t believe the injury is a major factor here. Chauncey wouldn’t be playing him this many minutes .. why would the team risk their franchise player like that? Much more likely he’s just declining. And it pains me to see, I’m no dame hater I like the guy a lot I screamed just like every other fan when he made those game winners in the playoffs. I just don’t like living in disillusion
 
Hmmm, maybe just maybe Dame isn't washed up. Fuckin fairweather people drive me crazy. Where was the logic in the idea of Dame going from where he was last season to being done?

Everytime Dame struggles he says he’s injured. That just happen every single time he had to deal with struggles or shooting slumps (which is happen right now).

Dame is getting old? Is time to move from him? Is he Washed?

that’s aimed right at Quick who was suggesting entertaining the idea of trading Dame in his little think piece the other day.

The mission has to be to make this team more than just Dame. Get him the help necessary for him to just lead the team not have to carry it because there isn't a player in the game and there never has been that could carry a team to a title.

seriously?
Jordan had tons of talent around him. He had elite 3pt shooters like craig hodges and steve ker. He had pippen another top 50 of all time.

and Magic??? I mean the list of all stars he had aRound him?

no. They were superstars, but they didn't have to, nOr DID they carry anything. They led their star studded cast to rings.

Giannis might be the only example. Maybe Dirk? But that yearthe Mavs had a stellar line up as well.

So if anyone has carried a team to a ring i would say Giannis.
