    Yes. Maxey and 1 pick (the most Philly can offer) and Toby is a much much much better deal than 3 picks, swaps, Jovic, Jaquez, and Herro. If you were a GM you’d be fired buddy. Learn basketball

  3. Robert Ricks III

    Celtics picked up a good quality forward in Oshae brissett and drafted a Jordan Walsh who is a longer more athletic grant Williams on the defensive end. To go with brogdon, Prichard, and Al they still have solid depth and to go along with porzigus they definitely didn’t get worse. If they trim the inconsistencies from last season they will definitely be a better team that last year

    Of course he wants to go to Miami. Beaches, vibrant city, no state tax, diversity, warm weather, winning franchise

    He’s lived in Portland for a decade plus. I don’t blame him for wanting to leave that city and not wanting to go to a racist/ boring city like
    Boston

    Blake & Luke Kornet (who's better than the mins he gets) are backup bigs. They're not thin with bigs. More will happen. Sometimes addition comes from subtraction. Grant sucked up mins from others who would've added more and taken away less. Plenty of time to sign more.

    Dame an heat the moment that trade request went down, man not playing with an injury bound center in philly or the dysfuncinal celtics 😂😂😂

    Don’t get shocked when dame goes to the heat. Most definitely isn’t going to Philly or Boston

  8. Mac forABetterTomorrow

    It’s definitely not the Celtics… his agent told Stephen A. while he was on air “Dame does NOT want to play in Boston”. He said that like 6 times today & interrupted a segment to say as much …. Guess you missed that on ESPN today

  12. Greg Bors

    Lots of delusional / uniformed commenters think that Dame and his agent are in charge of the situation here

  15. DIVISIONINCISION

    There are a finite number of teams who will wait for Portland to move. The longer they wait, the less leverage they have.

  16. Ryan Sproviero

    Anyone in the media saying they think Dame will show up out of professionalism is highly underestimating Dame.

    Dude has shown no sign of budging but this guy wants to talk trade packages for other teams. Bro, they can't even get Dame on the phone.

  18. Dave

    I am not a Blazers fan but please don't let the national media clown you guys into taking less for Dame. The Blazers have an obligation to its organization and fanbase to get the best deal possible. The Blazers owe Dame nothing, period! He has made hundreds of millions of dollars from the Blazers. A contract like Tyler Herro kills your financial books, coupled that with Jerami Grant's recent contract will stunt the growth of your rebuild.
