With more reports of the Toronto Raptors zeroing in on Dame Lillard, Michael Grange (SportsNet in Toronto) joins Ethan, Alex and Greg to discuss his latest piece on the subject — and all the latest information. Would Lillard report to the Raptors? Would they give up Scottie Barnes? And what are the odds they pull this off, as the Miami Heat wait?

NEVER trust anything Greg tweets or reports. He’s BIG 🧢! Just a week ago he said the Heat and Blazers have made progress. He’s done stuff like that before. Just talking out the side of his neck.
Tyler 2picks in 1 more more player if not o well plus Lowery like or not we good with him or without
Imho. Only chance Heat gets to trade for Dame is by a 3 – 4 team trade. Looks like Blazers have zero interest on what Miami offers. 🤔
Ethan looks nervous.
Michael Gringe:
"ah ah aha ah ah ah ah ah ah….ummmm….uuh…."
To say nothing…..
He forgot about Gary, Trent Junior pay attention to what they're talking about
og and graddy with no picks and salary filler. A third team would need to be used.
Lillard pig

Eough about lillard blazers really I am sick of lillard names now trade lillard right now blazers is slow makeing trade
Aldridge Batum Matthew will burton they was waiting for lillard blazers bring them back long time
Yeah Dame to Miami is not happening, I’ve come to that realization a few months ago. I enjoy your coverage of the Heat but you guys were over the top fanboys on the Dame stuff. If you have stepped back, took your capes off, and looked at this situation rationally you should have realized that there was a significant chance this wasn’t going to happen
I doubt it. Raptors usually don’t go for those types of contracts
You can't keep gambling on over- achieving every season regardless of your record the past few yrs. You dont have to look "desperate" but try and find a common ground with Portland where everyone gets their share and get dame. The team we have is good but not enough moving forward to win it all
Alex Chiang?
Blazers Skolding Skolnick! Spo save me!!🏀🔥🏆
Greg ! I love that Glen Rice jersey! GMoney#41 🏀🔥
Tyler hero a mannequin on defense
Just say NO to the Dame trade to Miami. He is NOT what we need. Do you think Dame would have been THE difference in the Finals? The really large front line of the Nuggets is the real issue. We got killed in the paint. So bad that Jimmy quit driving into the paint because they were blocking his shots and physically abusing him. Dame is fools gold. Whatever Portland wants is too much.
Fake News. Why would the Raptors want to trade for someone who CLEARLY does not want to be there?? IF Crone-head was serious, he would have done it already. Anyone ever ask why "every' team rumorville comes out the last 2 days that Dame will be traded or "mystery team"? Nonsense. That's why the Heat are just laughing at all this.
You have to own something before it can be stolen from you. The entitlement of this fanbase lol!
As a GM half their job is talking and probing. That's how you gauge value not every call has to lead to a trade happening. These guys know nothing. I take what Michael Grange says with a grain of salt and a clear bias anyway.
Ethan still beating the drum about how the Blazers are treating Dame. But that's all canceled out by two things: 1. Dame stuck it to the Blazers by reducing his market value. 2. The Heat offering nothing but Herro and picks–which is scandalous. I also don't believe that the Heat didn't know what Portland wants from them, if they even have it to offer.
Dame going to Raptors make no sense. If they really wanted to trade, there would be a trade or proposed assets. Be patient fellas. Pat and Andy got this. Heat Nation 🫡🔥
