Nah he always said he wanted to stay in Cleveland and carry on his dad's legacy, they're the ones that dumped him on the Blazers, I feel for the man. Get traded away from a situation you were happy in to a dumpster fire that gets blown up not even 8 months after you got there. And Cleveland is balling out relative to expectations right now...

From his letter to Cleveland:


Koby and the front office have done an incredible job drafting and acquiring young talent. Unfortunately for me, I was the old man of the bunch with a desire to win now, and craving more of the big stage.



This trade was absolutely a collaboration. I had expressed my desire to win now to Koby and the front office if we could find a deal that helped everyone, and they certainly did that. Going to Portland is something that I am extremely excited about. This is a team that has seen the biggest stages and is hungry for more, and I’m thrilled that they believe I can help them climb higher. This opportunity is one that I’m very ready to take advantage of and I have the Cavs to thank for preparing me for it.

Dame is a doofus and a cornball who’s scared of Blazers fans gettin at him on Twitter if he forced his way out

Or maybe, just maybe breh wants to win like Giannis did.

Yall kill folks for joining superteams, yall kill folks for staying loyal to small markets & trying to win.

He’s delusional and is a dummy then..

Giannis is 6’11 and is a two time MVP and dominating teams while Dame is 6’0 and 32 years old he ain’t leading any team to a championship

yea idk why cats in this thread acting like Portland never put a team around Dame to challenge...at the end of the day, the stars aligned for them in 2019 to finally get over the hump & they didn't

same thing happened for Giannis last year and he did

No you supposed to stay with the team that drafted you no matter what
