Ngl I definitely would not mind getting him, and I’d definitely be getting his jersey
Well, I don’t think there is a way we would become contenders, but after kd and irving, I want someone like dame to make our offense fun to watch again.
It’d be fun but probably not sensible. Doesn’t make us a title contender, but then again, who does if not multiple all-stars or a generational star?
But the price would probably be lofty. And Dame is gonna be 33 with a lot of mileage on those legs. If we’re gonna go all-in on another overpaid all-star who won’t make us title contenders but a solid playoff team, I’d rather Trae or KAT
As we should. He can bridge the gap between now and when we own our picks again in 2027. We might not be a contender but at the very least we can stay competitive, keep making the playoffs and keep our head above water for the next few seasons while we don’t have our picks. He’s a great guy and entertaining to watch.
If we can give up the expiring contracts of Spence+Joe, CamT and 4-5 picks i’d be happy. Keep Ben and just maybe he can turn into a quality player or asset again. If we get extremely lucky his salary could be used next off-season to trade for more depth or another max player.
Totally depends on the deal but I’d love to trade for him. If we can hold onto the twins and Clax, give up whoever else and whatever picks necessary to get it done. Otherwise we should tread carefully
It’s the same conundrum the Knicks were in with Melo and Mitchell
The team is elite if you don’t give up too much
Give up too much and you are mediocre
I’m not giving up the farm for another superstar again. If we can get him without giving up all the picks we acquired, then I’m on board
I wonder how it’s going to be paying a 36 year old Lillard 63 Mill
Pipe dream all in scenario is we go after dame and spicy p.
Dame for Ben and cam plus 4 first
Nurk for the tpe (taking on his contract will save blazers money)
Pascal for din, Royce, DFS plus 4 first
Re-sign Seth and yuta and bring back tj as a free agent (tpmle)
Dame – Seth – patty
Mikal – Joe
CamJ – TJ
Pascal – yuta
Clax – nurk – sharpe
