“Dame’s smart enough to know there’s a reason why Joe hasn’t traded him to Miami already, which is Miami’s offer is not good & Joe’s career is likely over if he takes that deal. If they don’t get that deal by training camp…Dame will understand where that’s coming from” @highkin

The more time that goes by, the worst the deal will get though.
He’s losing training camp time and probably actual games. There’s a price to that.
I don’t even have a quote for this nothingness report

“Cronin has given kind of this impression right now that they’re willing to take it into the season if that’s what it takes to get a better offer than what they think Miami is going to be able to give them…Dame is not going to sabotage anything b/c that’s not who he is” @highkin
nobodys firing Joe if he takes the deal. He’ll be looked at as a great guy who cares about his players and sent the franchise cornerstone to where he wanted to be.
Your guy gave your city everything for 11 years. Don’t be stingy it’s bad look.
Damn that’s some good copium.
looking more and more likely that this will be a KD last year situation. tuff
Cronin is already a dead man walking right? Whoever ends up buying the team will want their own guy running operations.
at this point, no point listening to anybody that isnt Shams, Barry, or Chris Haynes (since he’s Dame’s guy lol). This report feels like a nothingburger
Same dude who said Dame probably not asking out. Not very plugged in on this situation
I would love to know what these so called reporters think it’s a good enough offer for a 33 year old Dame with 200mil+ left in his contract
What could they possibly gain from keeping him there when they already received their best offers?
Every post contradicts the next one
We won’t know who Joe Cronin is in about 3 years tbh

Tim Reynolds spoke in a twitter-space tonight and he was super confident that Portland is going to honor Dame’s wishes and send him to Miami, even after the media at large has made a big deal that Portland will look elsewhere
🙄
Here’s the thing: Joe Cronin is a patsy. He wasn’t qualified for the job when he got it. He was always going to be fired for Dame leaving. It’s not his fault, but he’s not qualified to be an NBA GM.
Miami is Dames shot at a title. Durant got traded for Durant value and lost in the 2nd round. It’s unlikely that dame gets further than that for any team that trades equal value
Highkin the same guy who smugly proclaimed that Dame will never ask out during the draft, he’s the Ethan of Portland reporters.
I stopped listening at “I think”. I lived long enough that “I think” is irrelevant.
Yeah this isnt good we aint gettin dame
