Anybody trying to make dame out to be a victim tripping. nikka had no leverage to be talking the way he was
BREAKING NEWS: DAME DOLLAR Lillard Traded To Bucks!!! DominAYTON & Jrue To Blazers!
- Thread starter ALonelyDad
- Start date
I see why Cronin was pissed. Dame waited until after the draft, and after guys signed extensions to demand a trade. The timing was trash for everyone but him. A lot of teams lost trade equity for getting a deal done in the off-season. So that limits who Portland could even ask for from teams around the league, which is why that relationship went South.
A lot of pieces around the league can't even be moved until January or later because they recently signed deals. It's hard for me to believe that Dame and his agent didn't know that would be the case when they made the request. Seems like a calculated move to get to Miami because they knew Miami's package wouldn't include anyone that couldn't be moved right now lol.
EDIT: Portland also signed Grant, who they can't even trade until Jan. And he makes no sense on their team with Dame not there.

So Blazer fans think Tyler Herro >>>> Jrue & DeAndre Ayton!?
Blazers just have no need for Herro when they already have Scoot, Simons & Sharpe

Not only do they not need Herro, I think they should try to dump Simons contract too

Who’s giving up/ has 36 mil worth of young players to give Portland? Whoever has the best pick package + expiry’s is going to get jrue imo - it might look ugly to youThere's no way this is the best Portland gets for Jrue.
Ahhh I see, Dame is first ever superstar to be covered 30ft away from the basket

Feels like the plan here wasn't communicated soon enough.
I know Dame wanted them to trade #3, I wonder if a conversation was had with the organization beyond that. Like... "if you can't get a star back for #3, then I want to get traded"
