  1. If they get PJ Tucker and put him with Dame, Scoot, Grant, Sharpe and the rest of them boys….sheesh.

  2. ESPN producers are SO LAZY. Same story every day. Why not do team reviews. Who are the next nuggets. Long look at cap and the new CBA. Compare free agency market across years. Deep dives on European development system, deep dive on upcoming World Cup. It’s just simple boiler plate rubbish every day.

  3. The Clippers are done since 2019, they couldn't even make it to the conference finals. They should have traded Kawhi or George.

  4. The Trail Blazers may be a contender within the next 5 years. Does Damian Lillard want to wait for this development or is he going to hunt for a trade with another team. I think he should give it a chance in the future with Scoot Henderson.

  5. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Come on ESPN. Is it that slow in the office today that all you can talk about is Dame!?😂😂😂😂😂 Homeboys ear has not stop ringing.

  6. Here's a mind-blowing trade idea: Lillard and Nurkic to Warriors for Green, Thompson, Looney, and CP3. Win/win. If push comes to shove, the Warriors can throw in DiVincenzo or other player (but not GP2).

    New Warriors "win now" lineup = Steph/Lillard/Wiggins/Nurkic/Kuminga, with still a pretty decent bench. They could also separately deal a couple of smaller role players for a pure power forward or decent backup center. Lillard gets to return home (Bay Area).

    New Blazers lineup = Henderson/Thompson/Green/Looney/Grant (or Sharpe or Simons), with CP3 off bench along with two of Sharpe/Simons/Grant. Or put Thompson on second unit. Either way.

    I maintain that each team ends up stronger than they are now, which is why trades are done. The Warriors become a championship contender again, with lots of firepower, a true center, and some good defensive role players. The Blazers become a playoff contender with some experienced winners, and gain much more depth vs last season. Henderson takes over from Lillard, who might not pair up well with Henderson if he stayed. They'll lose Nurkic but it's worth the tradeoff.

    Just think of all the hype that this trade would generate.

  7. Waiting for you in Miami us fans will love you and your family to Miami.We hope you come to Miami ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

  8. At this point who cares, if he wanna just keep hitting a 3 here or there to win a game for the Blazers then let him. Maybe he doesn't want to he a champion.

  9. I love that all these teams have to scramble, claw, wheel & deal to try and keep up with Denver…the Nugget just get to kick back and watch the ants work to try and get on their level.

  10. Clippers… Lucky ….
    5 people. Can shoot everywhere… PG. WB. Leonard. Covington. And another…. Crazy.. all 3s and 2s…
    Lucky if PG goes to Lakers. Maybe…
