Dame Lillard Finally Requests Trade
- Thread starter Flex Luger
- Start date
Come on Don Corleone put your nuts on the fukking table!
You're not gonna haggle Dame outta Portland.
You're not gonna haggle Dame outta Portland.
I think the only reason he's considered a villain is because he won't budge off of going anywhere else. Even when Davis was bullshyttin', he at least gave a small list of teams he'd consider going to and he only had like a year on his deal left, not 4 like Dame.So he finally FINALLY requests a trade and it's turning into a complete and utter sh*t show, pretty much turning him into a villain
If Rich Paul was Dame's agent shyt would be final by now

Only if the biggest NBA Chip (Bron) is involved, we saw how it played out with Simmons and it wasn't pretty

I say carry on and trade him when something good comes in.

Big circus so the GM doesn’t get embarrassed when we steal dame for a turkey sandwich and some Doritos
Nah, we already saw this play out with Rich. He had some leverage with AD as an expiring, and he had none with Simmons locked into a multi-year deal so Morey sat on him until the right offer came along. Just like Marks sat on KD.
It doesn't matter who the player or agent is, if a trade request is made at the start/middle of a contract the team has no incentive to budge until they get what they want.
Dame's only play is to pull the Harden card and show up late to camp flabby and prove that he's serious about collecting checks to coast. I'm not sure his ego could take that though, his entire brand and persona is the opposite.

This. Breh could’ve at least put out a fake list but he and his agent went with the scorch the earth route demanding only Miami.
They could have gotten a legit all-star if they packaged the #3, Simons and maybe Shaedon Sharpe.
Maybe but at that point you’re completely mortgaging your future just to make the playoffs? Maybe if things line up perfectly make the 2nd round?
I think trading Dame is the best move for both sides, just complicated that he’s deadset on Miami when they don’t have the pieces to make a good deal for both sides
I'm not that high on Sharpe like most are. Simons is okay but he doesn't make or break a championship team.
And you never know what can happen in the playoffs.
Damn, that'd be a lot to give, but I could understand it if y'all had a legit guy coming back.
