[Tim Reynolds] “I do think Portland’s just upset with the fact that it came out so quickly & so adamantly that [Dame] wants to go to the Miami Heat. I think there are people in the Blazers organization that are still bothered by that. I think that’s the delay”

>“One thing I will say to you Marc is Jaime Jaquez Jr. signed on July 1st, he’s eligible to be traded August 1st. You have to wonder if that’s part of the holdup, [if they’re waiting for] when more assets become available for trade. **I think it’s gonna happen before we all leave for the Philippines.”**

The FIBA World Cup in Manila begins August 25.

  1. He’s under contract and they should hold him to it. Fuck this demanding a trade bullshit. Put him on the end of the bench and never play him.

  2. This is most lame trade saga ever at this point… can’t wait for it to be over

  3. Maybe they should’ve traded him when they had the chance and knew they were going to rebuild…

  4. It is their own fault for treating their guy the way they have. Saying one thing and doing another. Should have just been honest and up front with him. It would have never gotten this far.

  5. Portland hasn’t even told us what they want. I don’t think the delay is waiting for a specific date, it feels more like incompetence. Feels like we’re really waiting for Cronin to realize he’s in over his head, or for Dame to blow his spot up and drop an interview on ESPN and say the truth about what’s happening.

  6. This is it trade goes down 8/1 it’s already been agreed to
    Dame Nurk to Mia
    Jovic Jaquez Hero Lowry to pDx w picks
