Lmaoooo. How will goodwin respond
Finally, can’t wait for all this to be over with so we can start rebuilding🔥🔥
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO
Good. This shit is disgraceful.
LMAO FUCKING FINALLY. SHAMS CAN’T EVEN REPORT THIS STRAIGHT WITHOUT STUTTERING
Goodwin denied that he was reaching out to teams telling them not to trade for Dame? Who reported that in the first place?
Mandatory Fuck shams. But this is great news for the Blazers org. If you thought Heat fans were in shambles before than wait until they hear this lol.
What does this even change? The 28 other teams already know he doesn’t want to play for them. All this means is he can’t be public about it but they already know
Fuck it’s only been 3 weeks? Feels like months
Personally, I think the punishment should be that any attempt to trade Dame to Miami will be automatically vetoed for a full year. He’s just not allowed to be traded to Miami.
Lol get fucked heat
Eh to me this feels like a slap on the wrist and basically telling Dame and his agent to go about their business but quietly. I’m sure Dame holds the same stance still
Lmaooooooooooo
Aaron “small time agent” Goodwin.
Goodwin has been playing the game on easy for too long
This is only to set a precedent to players going forward.
Never would I have thought Dame would do something that’d require the NBA to send out a warning to every team…
This guy has changed so much and absolutely tarnished his so called character.
Blinking contest between Heat fo and blazers fo. It’s okay to delay the inevitable. The best package was the Celtics but with that contract they just gave Brown idk. No other team besides okc and Utah have what Cronin is looking for.
Okc has the picks but they don’t really need Dame they have sga and a lot of young talent. Utah has picks as well not as many but where does dame fit in with Utah not to mention both teams are in the same division.
I want to see the blazers win championship it takes time to build a winning team and create chemistry. Dame only got better since he was drafted and so did the team record but the pieces around him never fit even though they were first round draft picks. And the west has never been easy.
I don’t understand why trailblazers fan are so upset about dame only requesting the heat. Looking across the board PG spot around the league seem pretty filled. Dame to heat fits like a hand in a glove. I know we don’t always draft high since the heat are competitive just about every year. So the picks are somewhat useless.
But you never know you could always hit on late round gem or trade the picks and build around Scoot & Simmons. You want a heat rookie sure pick 1 JJJ or Jovic. Don’t want Herro convince a third team to take him. Jazz look like a good match plus I think Ainge would send a 1rp for Herro imo.
Haynes trying to run some cover for his source (goodwin)?
man seems like heat fans hate Cronin more than blazers fans based on their reactions that’s kinda funny
Unfortunately, the damage has already been done. Teams know that Dame ONLY wants to play for Miami. Sure would be nice for the league office to just say Dame can’t be traded to Miami now to essentially punish Miami for all the tampering that has gone on. The owners and the league office need to do something as the player empowerment era has gone too far.
Just don’t trade him then, or send him to another place, Blazers. He can’t say anything about it. I’m a Heat fan and this shit is getting so tiring.
Adam Silver should get MVP chants at all small market teams on opening night.
Oh no a warning 🙄
It’s rough being a Portland fan when no one wants to be there, and free agents don’t even consider it lol
