  6. While I get the Blazers wants more for Dame, Dame has been torpedoeing his value every chance he gets with his comments on only playing for Miami.

    Sure he sounds perfect in theory but what if we trade Scottie + filler and picks for Dame and he then sits out or spends the rest of his contract demanding a trade to Miami and we end up with a low Miami pick and Herro at best.

    Same case with Philly if they move Maxey + filler and picks, or Phoenix with Ayton + picks. It’s a big risk and I don’t think many of the interested teams want to take that risk, especially considering the Miami FO is showing no outward signs of being desperate to make the trade, retaining the leverage they had at the start of the negotiations.

  9. Dame wanted OG. Wanted Siakam.

    Why would he say no to being traded here to play with exactly those guys?

    Come on down to the 6ix D Lilly

  12. At this point it’s safe to assume not a single one of the media spinning a version of what’s happening with Lillard has the slightest clue what’s actually going on. It’s all just click bait filler for the dead time of the off season.

  13. Haven’t watched Dame enough to know: were his teams built mostly around his isolation offence? or was there a good mix with motion offense and ball movement ?
