  1. IMO, Dame's not even worth Miami's potential best offer. They need size and inside scoring and shouldn't mortgage their future for a 33 year old small guard with a supermax contract with 4 more years on it.

    If Dame was on the team last year, he doesn't help them beat Denver, he can't guard Jokic or really anyone for that matter

    If KAT's available, go after him with the same offer. He's younger & fills more needs than Dame does

  2. so the guys paid to talk besketball do not know it is considered tampering if dame himself says he only wants Miami or any other specific team. his agent is allowed to say it but if the players say it is literally tampering.

  3. Bru is being pig headed. All Dame needs to say is. Listen, I am not going to play for any other team. I will tell them that before hand. They are buying a set warmer. That said I will try to convince Heat to give you best possible offer. Bru is stuck in first gear.

  4. Dame the new melo , never wanted to get ring . And now he retired and nobody will remember him

  5. The Heat and Trailblazers are going to have to include multiple teams into this deal and there are teams that probably still need a little tweaking, even if they don't need or want the star players that will be at the top of this multi-team deal.
    Right now there are at least 4 teams that could get involved:
    Portland, Miami, Philadelphia, and L.A(C)
    There are 3 contending level teams and 1 that would like to at least remain somewhat competitive, while adding draft capital and gaining future cap relief….
    I'm not sure how many more teams could be thrown into the mix?
    Maybe a current team not considered a contender at the moment, who with a tweak or two, could find themselves as more of a contender?
    Mavericks, Thunder, Bulls, Raptors, Pelicans, Pacers, etc…..?
    Of the 4 teams i mentioned, here are the players likely to be involved: Lillard, Harden, Morris Sr, Batum, Powell, Covington, Zubac, Herro, Robinson, and Lowry.
    The Clippers have 4 contracts that could go out for teams looking for expiring contracts and veteran help.
    They are likely looking for upgrades at the 4 and 5.
    The Heat want Dame and would probably want another experienced vet on an expiring deal.
    The Sixers want to get off Harden and would probably want a veteran pg in return and some draft capital. They also might want a shooter.
    I think The Blazers are looking for a star level replacement for Dame, a young player projected to be a star who they can pair with Scoot, draft capital, and future cap relief(expiring contracts)
    From The Clipper's perspective they would probably prefer a 5th team that is deep at either the 4 or 5……as they don't currently need Harden, Dame, Herro, Robinson, or Lowry.
    This could get wild…..😊

  6. Bru. You already insinuating that for Blazers. There is no danger in that because you already going that way. Bru sounds soar in this whole thing. He clearly wanted Celtics and Dame told him to go fly a kite. Listen. Dame hold ultimate trump card here. If I am Dame I would say, we can either work together and make this work nd we both part ways amicably or we can make this dirty and you end up in misery. I will tell every team that I will not play or even suit up. You will waste your offering. And if you opt to keep me I will sit.

  7. Mentally Tough… guy was sedated in the locker room during the Mavs championship. Just this last year he thought he got fouled and feel to his knees, and threw a tantrum. Lebron might be a lot of things, but mentally tough? No.

  8. This is business… it’s Portlands Top priority to get the best they can outta this trade. End of discussion. Damian could’ve taking off but he choose to get Max $$$. Noe deal with the consequences.

  9. The fact nick glosses over bron losing to Mavs is crazy. He is a legend one of the best all times. That’s his all time low moment cause he was terrible

  10. Its the blazers fault anyways, they could've had a better package before the draft. Dame warned them but continued to draft scoot and called dames bluff now dame wants a trade. They should fulfill what dames want

  11. Kyrie does this the media trashes him…dame does this nick think he’s a hero smh 🤦🏿‍♂️ the media is so bias

  12. at this point I just want Dame to go to a team Skip likes lol I never understood why he criticizes Dame so much

  13. He wants warm weather and beachy Miami, not cold Boston or Philly. Why not. Harden did it now, going on three times. KD did it to Phenoex.

  14. For the money he makes he has know right to demand to go to a certain team he's under contract this is redicules
