I really bought this mfer this time only to get pump fakes once again.
Dude just reminds me of my last GF both sides don’t want to initiate the break up but both know it needs to happen. DAM you Dame, now let’s trade minimal shit for Murray.
Ok, even if we don’t in fact want him, what’s the point of anything Dame and Portland is doing? Do they actually think they can contend while keeping the 3rd?
Dame’s value will only go lower, at most he has two more years of superstar status, in which the young guys will still not be in place of forming a contender. Maybe in the end all they care about is selling tickets and Dame is too honourable to ask for a trade.
Good, I’m glad this saga is over. I like Dame but this public whining every off season is becoming pretty lame because he doesn’t do anything about it. He could have accomplished the same thing just going to the front office. It’s clear he does not want to leave Portland. Now hopefully Sean marks can wake up and actually start making some roster adjustments that will benefit us in the long term instead of sitting on his hands and knees waiting for Dame to be available.
This means I can stop worrying about us getting rid of Claxton and Bridges
That’s perfectly fine I wish nothing but the best for Dame. Now time for the nets to focus on themselves
2 years ago the Nets said Harden wasn’t on the market and he was moved.
If they were gonna trade him, are they supposed to say so, upset fans, hurt value?
I don’t want Dame, but this isn’t over.
They’re gonna strike out in free agency and then we’ll do this whole song and dance again.
And then he still probably won’t ask out.
Heat fans in shambles
Hmmm so as I’m flipping through the 23-24 NBA script we should see a trade request around the trade deadline
I feel like this is a move by Portland. They know that they have limited trade options so they’re pandering around acting like they’re fine to try to milk more out of offers they currently have.
