Lillard flying to LA to convince LA to resign here

[Roger Templeton]

Aldridge hasnt even agreed to meet Lillard yet. So we don't even know if this meeting is happening.

If he doesn't agree then he's not Blazer material and we can all shut that door. I don't think he will deny Dame though

 

[Mediocre Man]

One of the reasons he is looking at other teams is Dame. This should be interesting

 

[Cippy91]

If you thought this drama couldn't get any stupider, the Lakers get a 2nd meeting, the Heat get a meeting for whatever reason, and Dame is trying to go talk to this dude. At this point, I really don't care if we get him back or not.

Sly Stallone after a couple of years without a movie or steroids?

It's going to either prove he's jealous or that he's just torn. If Aldridge doesn't mind Dane, then he will have that meeting

Do you just cut and paste these?

IF LMA refuses to meet w/ Dame, I'm changin' my name.

If it were true, it doesn't necessarily mean he does not like Dame. Just that he didn't like the rumored attention he was getting.

Which is dumb. How is he gonna like the attention kawhi gets? What wade gets..phx is the only team with no other established fan favorite that's actually really good.

That's not true, they've got... Archie Goodwin & LMA will come to despise him too & he'll want to be traded mid-season!

Wade=franchise great. Spurs already made it clear that Kawhi will be the NEW face of the Spurs, not LA. Phoenix is the only place where he could be that guy and Portland is the place where he could cement his legacy and possibly win a title and get more money while he is at it

 

[Chrionex]

I never really bought the LA wants more attention thing. If he wanted it in Portland, he could get it. I'm sure addidas or nike would happily make him some ugly shoes.

I am not sure I believe it. But when it does happen to other vets, it tends to go away when they go to another team. It's something about being on a team the longest and watching younger players come in and get more attention/minutes that rubs guys the wrong way. Happens in all types of businesses.

 

[riverman]

A lot of the cynics are saying that LA is already envious of Dame & this will only push him further away, & that he'll only resent Damian for inserting himself into his free agency to try and play the hero. Who knows what their relationship is like behind closed doors? I always thought they got along fine, if not close friends. I suppose it could be posturing by Lillard, but I choose to believe it's genuine. I want to to see them come back together so I can cry as hard as Mags did when he first heard that Lillard was hopping on a plane . . .

That's why they're called cynics

That's not velour, it's velvet. Or quoting GC, "It's the real deal!"

 

[Chrionex]

Sooo is there a concorde flight to Los Angeles? Need to get this shit over with.

 

[Chris Craig]

Is The Lakers security gonna let him in

 

[riverman]

Aldridge hasnt even agreed to meet Lillard yet. So we don't even know if this meeting is happening.

How would anyone know this and more importantly, why would Dame need permission to lobby for his team..he let Kobe visit didn't he?

 

[Chrionex]

If you thought this drama couldn't get any stupider

If we've learned anything this week it's that it could always get stupider.

Would any of you guys get a kick if SAS finally gets inpatient and commits to DW instead of Aldridge?

would never happen

I mean that's our dream but I am sure he is a San Antonio lock at this point and has been but he still is taking meetings just in case. I hope I am wrong and Dame can pull off magic but doesn't seem likely

 

[Chris Craig]

This just in Aldridge signs with China

 

[Cippy91]

As you say that

 

[Chris Craig]

Maybe Dame is bringing Aldridge a blazers contact to sign in front of the lakers

I don't think Darrell Waltrip would be a good fit on the Spurs.
