…Kobe asked for a trade and came back and won a chip.

yes but the lakers (nor kobe) didn’t really explore the option of trading him if I recall…from what I remember the kobe shyt was a threat for the front office to get shyt done…dame had a legitimate request with a specific team in mind

 

[Joe Sixpack]

This fool had to be kicked outta Portland

 

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

A lot of Dame's issues could have been avoided it had he went the Beal route in not being so vocal in wanting out. He overplayed his hand too early.

Cronin wasn't necessarily wrong for his comments considering that Dame would have kept throwing shots about wanting to go elsewhere even if they let him stay. It would have just been delaying the inevitable like all of us kept mentioning.

He’s the best player in franchise history coming off of his best year.

being the best player in franchise history still doesn’t make him comparable to kobe…cut it out…you’re clearly a bitter heat fan

 

[In The Zone '98]

You asked for a trade. You gonna get traded. Sell your house.

How is Cronin a bytch for not letting Dame have his way?

Dame made it clear he wanted out - just because it turned out to be a location not of his choosing doesn’t change the fact the Blazers organization is well within its right to go with the best asset haul

also fukk is he mad about? He actually gets to play for a contender Breh acting like he got sent to the Hornets

They turned down a better Miami deal to be spiteful. Ayton and 3 first round picks plus one of those young Heat players is a better haul. Phoenix gave the best deal for KD so Brooklyn took it. Portland went out like hoes to prove a point.

Dame has been throwing hints quietly about wanting a better situation for years. They forced his hand even though he did a bit much.

Define "quietly" as Dame kept bringing up wanting to leave and go elsewhere even when it wasn't the topic of conversation. He forced his own hand by bringing up Miami and ruining what leverage he did have. They didn't do it for him.

All Dame had to do was keep quiet and let the media help do his bidding to get where he wanted to go.

Dame blinked first and there was no going back
