1. Duh, the entire news cycle was a jab back at Miami for making noise about a Dame trade. It’s just reporters carrying water

2. So the same reaction the Blazers probably had when they heard the idea of Damian Lillard for Tyler Herro and some draft picks.

3. Obligatory fuck Miami.

4. No shit. Why would they trade him when he was part of them making the finals?

5. We’ve got to stop sharing these aggregated stories. I just listened to that pod. He didn’t say that lol. Ugh. As a Journalism major from UO. This is so distressing the way we share and recognize and shorthand information. JFC. Ok. Rant over.

6. Oh but PS. People should listen to that pod. Zach Lowe from what I can tell is the ONLY national pundit I’ve heard so far still tease a third option. He’s been saying it all along that he still believes everything Cronin says in terms of doing all of this FOR Dame. I thought he was fairly rational and it is more representational of the situation we face. I found it refreshing.

7. Yeah no shit

8. Well I think they might not be hammering out a dame trade with Miami.

9. Cronin had to tell Dame at least he tried

10. Lowe wasn’t reporting anything. I think he was just making a joke about it.

11. Same reaction when Miami presents their dumb ass combo for dame

12. Just like we’re laughing at them for trying to get Dame. Sorry Reilly…

13. I commend the Blazers for being petty

14. That’s not good business of they wanted any chance of Portland making a deal with them for dame. Count that one dead in the water.

15. F*ck Miami

16. This was actually a great move by Cronin, clearly wasn’t legitimate in terms of expecting it to result in a deal, but it said what he thought of their Dame offer.

    It was really stopping the vultures from circling.
