was trading Hart the final straw? It's not like Josh has a cap killing contract. Look how good the Knicks became after that move.
If you think it’s hard to bring free agents here now, watch how hard it will be if this front office backstabs the most loyal superstar in all of sports. Players have a deep respect for dame and will never be willing to come here after that.
I want to be positive and think Cronin plays mind games trying to sell the value of #3 pick.. because every other GM is doing the opposite atm, Simons Sharpe #3 plus a couple future st for OG and Achiuwa.. coz if teams dont want to trade with Portland (Toronto last year, Brooklyn now) why would Portland trade Dame..as easy as offering 25 to Kuz and drafting Miller/Scoot would significantly make Portland much better
While Cronin is wrong for lying to dame the blazers are not wrong for doing what’s best for the city of Portland lmao dame understands it’s a business at the end of the day
What's up guys? I am a nets fan. I check on you guys show to see what's going on with dame to get some understanding as a nets fan, I am 50 50 if Dame wants to come to the nets for starters, Nick claxton is definitely gone even though we would have to pay him next year – what I think everyone's missing is we got back to starters for Kevin Durant and on that Phoenix team those were the best two starters that we could get and it happened to be young and they are fourth and fifth options on that team with that being said, we would have to trade dfs and dinwiddie to get you guys another player that you would like it would take three or four teams because we don't have to players but we have the draft picks or can get the draft picks and it doesn't make sense for him to come here if Ben Simmons is not healthy because there's no way he would win a championship with Nick claxton gone and an unhealthy Ben Simmons. It would be the same team as if he stayed in Portland
Its all smoke ,the OG Anunoby or Mika’s Bridges deal will get done , Toronto or Brooklyn if they made the deal with Portland would get Anfernee Simons and either Scoot Henderson or Brandon Millier which means Toronto or any team for that fact would have 2 of their 5 starting players under team control for the next 4 to 5 years, On the best deal u could have as a team who is gonna pass that up? Not Toronto not Brooklyn not any GM. I challenge anyone on the platform to tell me I’m lying!!!!!
I actually think think the opposite in terms of you saying this offseason sucks. There will be major change for the first time in a while. Either they will rebuild around the 3rd pick and what they get for Dame, or will finally get a legitimate star next to Dame. One of those 2 things will 100% happens and they both excite me in different ways.
The front office is smoke screening, not lying. Just relax.
Start 3:19
I just can’t with Cronin anymore. 🤦🏻♂️
Scoot to Portland is gonna happen
Loyalty. DAME IS MAKING A MAX CONTRACT AND HAS NEVER WON SHIT. He's a great player, but maybe if he could play defense they would've had more success in the playoffs. I don't want to trade Dame, but I also don't want to trade superstar potential at the #3. If Dame can't handle keeping the 3rd pick and leading a young franchise, I will remain loyal to the Blazers and wish him well somewhere else. Loyalty is a two way street. I don't think trading #3 is what is best for the franchise. You guys do and that is what your argument revolves around. If Dame doesn't want to be here because he needs "his guys", that is Dame being unloyal.
I feel the same way yall feel torey!!!!!
What if the time comes to make trades, and they bring them to Dame and they're all bad trades in which the Blazers get fleeced and Dame says, "These trades suck. If that's the best we can do then go ahead and trade me". Would you blame the front office or chalk it up to sometimes there not being any good options.
yall not getting Jaylen brown blazers need to rebuild asap
Everyone complains about Cronin's moves but the Blazer's will have Sharpe and Henderson/Amen/Black, young, talented, athletic, wings/guards who can PASS and in 2024-25 when both Nurkic and Simons' contracts are a little more attractive in trades major changes to the roster will be possible. Portland has been talent poor and paying for talent which doesn't contribute to winning has gotten the Blazer's nowhere. I see Dame's career like John Elway–going out as a champion in his last seasons.
Why are we blaming the media for Dames' current trade chatter⁉️ They play their roll in this but Dame is the main reason its on all these platforms as a topic. He can shut all that down by saying I'm a Blazer, I don't think about playing with other teams..he feeds into it.
Question for U both.
WHY DO SHAEDON TAKE SO MANY STRAYS ON THIS CHANNEL. Y'ALL MAD BC OF SOMETHING ELSE, BUT SOMEHOW SHAEDON ISN'T THIS OR HE ISN'T GOING TO BE THAT‼️THAT IS HATING NO MATTER HOW U DRESS IT‼️EXCUUUUSE US BLAZERMANIACS THAT WANTS TO HAVE SOMETHING OTHER THAN DAME TO LIKE ON THIS TEAM. SS17 is taking strays for no reason. U both constantly put Dame vs Shaedon. That's ridiculous bro's‼️
Still, U guys rock‼️
#GoBlazers ♥️⚪🖤
I feel the pain of being a blazer fan. They all lie though. Remember Lamarus telling us he would be here for life. A team says we are a family then they trade you. They all lie it is just a part of professional sports. There is two ways to break up with someone. You can be honest and tell them or you can treat them so bad they leave. One way has caracter the other is cowardess.
dame is low key tryin to leave without making it look like he wants to stay he’s a snake he strait said he’s down to be traded to the nets or heat and doesn’t want to go to boston very different from his stance a few months ago when he wouldent even entertain the idea of being traded to any team
I don't see how y'all can't understand that getting the top 3 pick changes things, regardless of Dame's royalty status here. Dame is getting old and it's time to think about the future. It's not like Dame hasn't has good teams here yet we still can't win. Dame is great, but also severely flawed come playoff ball.
13:55 you didnt know the blazers were gonna hit on sharpe and have the third pick. Now is the time to reevaluate even if that doesnt mean moving dame or whatever u atleast have to take a sec step back and look which steps are gonne help the blazers the most
about 20 mins in on this stream lmao i love and trust y’all so much. this is some stuff that would be written in an nba soap opera
Sharpe is off the table unless it brings a bona fide star
I'm a big fan, and I'm getting heated just listening to all this media discourse and every comment section talking as if dame is as good as gone because of these loaded interviews.
What if the hang up on the JB trade is Sharpe? If Boston wants Sharpe too that's too much for me.
What trade would you prefer to happen to support Dame?
Ya'll swear Grant is coming back but he is a UFA looking for the bag. Don't be surprised if he doesn't return
I like Bridges and Claxton for #3 and Simons. What do you think?
If Jaylyn Brown wants to be here, then they should get 'er done.
I think the real problem is Jodi and Bert.
