Abbott OMG -- he might be the biggest tool of them all in the media ( outside of S. A. Smith ) if that is who you want to base your argument around then you are wrong just on that alone and nothing more needs to be said -- ROFL

He has yet to be right and he claimed Dame wanted out a year or two ago and that was proven to be horse crap so sure let's believe him and if you want to do that I have some oceanfront property to sell you in Iowa dirt cheap too -- -LOL

Why hasn't Goodwin sued him for defamation? Do you understand that there are laws against outright lies that defame someone? Probably not since you don't even know how to hit reply. Abbot probably jumped the gun last summer based on the Goodwin conversation he has now publicly revealed. Last summer was speculation with him claiming a source, this summer he has stated he has a source who said something very specific. The former is bad guessing, and viable free speech, the latter is something that can bring a defamation lawsuit.
 
The truth is we do not know the truth it's possible the agent might have been running his mouth on the side . it's possible maybe Dame was more unhappy then he let on to the media so not to be the bad guy and it could be that I am right that this front office lied too --- It's possible this has been more of a mess in the behind the scenes then we ever will know or not find out until a few years down the line. The one thing I do believe in most cases is that the truth is somewhere in the middle of everything and that is annoying cause in the end all this is doing is dividing this fanbase. I mean let's be real this forum can get a little rowdy at times but let's be real since this whole Dame thing has started it's like a uncivil war between fans. I know I have been an A-hole at times and I know others have done things to try and provoke the fanbase too.

I have already accepted Dame is all but gone and it kills me to see this happen as this should not have happened and I blame Jody , NeO , Vulcan and Cronin with a little Blame on Dame as I think he should have stood up to these clowns sooner before it got to this point. I will say as much as I love Dame I wonder if he put his need to NOT be the badguy like LeBron and others who forced certain bad choices from front offices reacting to there needs , desires etc that ended up hurting those teams. I will say it again we will not know the truth until Dame has retired and /or Jody sells this team and even then we might never know.
 
This place was more uncivil the past few years. Most of us are on board with moving forward with Scoot, Sharpe and pieces we get from Dame. It is really only a handful of people sniffling in the corner unable to acknowledge where we are at.

What did LeBron ever do that was wrong? He’s never asked for a trade or even threatened to. And yes, he strong armed the AD trade but that was a good trade for both teams.

Didn't Lebron more or less demand Spoelstra be fired and Pat told him to go FO?
 
I never really said anyone did anything wrong but there is a perception right or wrong that stars like LeBron used his power to manipulate things like get certain trades done , signings , get a coach hired and/or fired etc

He didn’t demand a trade to Miami. He signed with them as a free agent. And what’s wrong with him thinking he’s the best player on the planet? He has never asked for a trade or threatened too. And The Decision was done for charity. I’ve never understood what was wrong about that. LeBron, unlike Dame, honors contracts.

LeBron’s been a standup guy his whole career. He doesn’t force teams to trade HOFers for trash. That’s Dame who does that.
 
Damn King -- I never insulted LeBron can you read cause that skill is kind of needed when coming to a forum ? -- even you have to know there is a perception again RIGHT or WRONG that star players have become the GM at times and I know for a fact LeBron has been accused of that in Cleveland if i recall some thought he got a coach fired but who knows if true or false.

Has Lebron won? Seems like not only is Lebron a better basketball player than Dame will ever be, he also is a better GM!

Those are just two examples. I'm not about piling on the guy while his kid is going through some medical problems.
But I'll take Dame over Lebron every time.

Every. Single. Time.

And Lebron will beat Dame 100% of the time in a game of 1 on 1.

LeBron's worst stuff, doesn't even come CLOSE to what Aaron Goodwin did. LeBron never intentionally burned down his own team while leaving it.

Don't care.
I don't give people a pass just for being bigger and stronger. Lebron is a freak. That's fine. It's worked out well for him.

If I'm building a team I'll take Dame.
 
I am really getting tired of people not reading first it was King now Sly i guess our educational system really is going down the drain since some cannot even read it's kind of sad. This was never about who was better but again if you read the posts you would know that but again that would require the skill of reading and it's becoming obvious to me that some on this forum really lack this skill.

I agree, what's really sad is when threads get confusing because people can't read the word "reply" on the reply button, and then click said "reply" button in order to "reply" to the appropriate commenter. It's of course, super helpful to communication to use the "reply" button, and therefore respond to a specific person, so that they in turn can "reply" due to receiving a notification.

Now, if one wants to say just make a statement, perhaps a slightly rude one, and get the "final word" because the other person doesn't see a notification, then of course you wouldn't want to hit reply. I doubt anyone would insult the reading skills of others and not use the reply function though, that would be extremely embarrassing.

coffee makes you less prone to mistakes? What I've found is that coffee, at least the high-octane kind, just makes me stupid at a faster rate

No! I can be stupid pretty fast without coffee. Have to disagree with you here. I at least read what I'm writing when I have had 1-2 cups of coffee. Now if I have that third cup? Totally agree with you.
