Ant + Nurk + draft picks is pretty much the only option and I bet 5 teams beat that offer easily.
Would Dame and Doncic even work well together? Both require the ball in their hand…

This is a tough one because I’m a big fan of Doncic but we would get torched on defense.

Literally anything it takes to make it possible outside of Dame

If Luka and Kyrie and a medley of bad wings players isn’t working in Dallas, why would Luka and Dame and a medley of bad wing players work in Portland? This is like going from Dame and Cj to Dame and Ant expecting different results.

Idk but all I’ll say is God bless Mark Cuban and the Mavs dumbasses for taking the heat off of us and Dame this summer lmaooooo

Dame and luka wouldn’t work well imo.

As a huge European Luka fan, he’d be one of the last stars I’d want us to pair with Dame to be honest.
CerealKiller3030
Honestly? I don’t want him
Would I take Luka if the price was insanely low? Absolutely. But the price will be astronomical, so there’s no way we get him without murdering the future of the franchise
toadtruck
You guys are insane. Do whatever it takes. Luka and Dame are both first team all NBA guys. He’s gonna want a big market and it will never happen but to say he’s not worth it or a good fit whatever is crazy
SPAREustheCUTTER
C’mon guys. We all know how it feels to have rumors like this happen with our star, so I’m not gonna entertain this idea.
TeaBagginton
They don’t have the pieces to make a deal work. Also, Luka would have no desire to come to Portland.

Lol the comments in this thread are hilarious. If Luka is available, and wants to come to the blazers, you put literally everything on the table.

How is Dame + Luka any better than Kyrie + Luka?
Trailbleezers
They’re looking for a center. I think you could use them in a nurk trade to get back some vet rotation players.

Why wait till 2024?

The obvious answer is Dame for Luka. Obviously we all love Dame and don’t want to see him traded, but swapping Dame for Luka expands our Championship window by eight years.

Sharpe Simons Nas and every pick. We don’t really have anything else lol

Dame for Luka. Lukas time-line is closer to Sharpe and ant plus whoever we get in the draft this year.

I would rather see if we can do something like Kleber or Bertans. Dame and Luka together, although sounds fun, would be terrible at the end of the day. Dame would have to commit to being a 3-D guard, and he’s just not built to be a great defender. I’d rather try to upgrade a role player, if Dallas is a trade partner.
GraveHugger
We don’t want Luka here only because the pairing with Dame isn’t strong enough defensively. The real opportunity here is working ourselves into a three team trade where we can redirect strong role players to Portland.

I would trade Dame for Luka. I think Luka and Sharpe would have a higher ceiling than Dame and Sharpe. If not just for all the Luka lobs Sharpe would be cashing in lol. Never going to happen but etc etc

This is a hard to swallow pill, but there is absolutely a 0% chance the deal gets done without Shae in it.
