  1. He’d be a great mentor to Scoot. Keep him til the trade deadline if that’s what it takes.

  2. The source sited is Fentress, so do whatever you want with that.

  3. If Lillard stays, we need to push into the luxury tax to give this team a chance.

    This is news to nobody except for the most braindead extremely online people

    Shocking… show up or don’t get paid millions of dollars.

    Plot twist: Dame plays his hardest here in an attempt to spoil our tank/up his trade value enough that contenders want him. We end up making the playoffs with Dame

    4 guard lineup? Or 5 guard lineup?

    Dame is a hooper. I didn’t really doubt he’d show up if he’s on the team. I thought they might ask him to sit. For Baby Blazers, hopefully having Dame around, and mentoring, is worth the missed golden honey of playing time. Maybe the team thinks featuring Dame might help another team push in for a trade? The Heat went all in on Dame. This might be a catastrophic blunder if someone steps in…

    Whatever happens, I just want to enjoy Blazers Basketball!

    To me, he’ll play only if he recinds his trade request. Otherwise, stay at home, Dame.

    Noooo: that would lead us back to square one with 4 high usage guards. The team would be so bad on defense that it would be near unwatchable.

    Pay Dame to sit while awaiting a trade.

    If we have all four of our guards, you start dame and ant? Dame and scoot? Dame and sharpe? Whoever is on the bench would feast

    Gotta make moda the loudest it’s ever been if Dame is still in a blazer jersey when the season starts.

    Dame’s character I wouldn’t expect anything else. Dude just at the tell end of his career wants to play for a contender.

    Just keep having the feeling this is a Kobe situation when he asked for a trade. Another star will ask out this season which the Blazers will make play on
