  1. Wouldn’t it have been easier for Portland to get one or two players to win with the team they have? Now they are trying to trade for picks to rebuild?

  2. Patience he says that's the whole reason why Portland are in this situation and now you have dame ruining trade talks because he's set his mind on going to Miami and i think the longer this goes on for the worst it is for everyone involved even Portland

  3. I don't understand why outlets keep saying they signed him to an extension, so he has no right to say what team he wants to go to. When, once he's traded, Portland wouldn't be paying him anything. So, with that point, he wouldn't be on there books.

  4. @TheFlightMike, Portland doesn't hold the leverage. They lost the leverage when they decided not to trade him before the beginning of the draft. Portland knew that they were planning to use that pick, and Portland knew that Dame preferred Miami then. That's when the leverage was in their hands. Right there and then, Portland should have called Miami, and they could have got 4 firsts, 1 second, pick swaps, and Kyle Lowry or one young player. But, now if they hold on to a player that will make the locker very uncomfortable for your young guys at the beginning of the season, then your going to be very eager to move him. 2 firsts, 1-2 seconds, 2-3 pick swaps,Kyle Lowry and 1 young guy.

  5. This is what "loyalty" gets you. KD asked the Nets to trade him to the Suns, they did it that very season in a few days. Lillard asks the Blazers to trade him to the Heat? He gets the constant runaround and delays and them seeking any reason to send him to a team that isn't the one he asked for.

    Tells you a lot.

  6. Dame a damn fool. How you want to be faithful and loyal then turn around and switch from what the media wants. They’ve been wanting that for you long ago and you ignored it. Now you want to be all about it. 🤡

  7. If im portland id ask for robinson and those picks instead of herro. Otherwise no deal at all.

  8. He doesn't want to be there why do you want that guy that doesn't want to be on your team anymore send him where he wants to go and that's it you already got your number three pick you got your future why you being a little b** just send Damien Leonard to Miami that's where he wants to go send them there you got your number three pick you have your future already left a man go

  9. Miami be laughing at Portland. Damian won't go to the Heat, even though it would be great to see Jimmy B and Dame Time play on the same team. (Also with Kyle and Bam Bam)

  10. It's a good thing Portland didn't get the 1st pick because Wemby would've gotten injured permanently just like Bowie, Oden, and Roy.

  11. shutting Dame down for a half season at his age is so disrespectful towards someone who has dedicated and shown nothing but love to this garbage team! I feel so bad for Dame.

  12. This is why I don’t hate on players for not being loyal, every time will always do “ what’s best for them” so players should do the same

  13. Miami thought they’d get him for nothing just cause he wanted to go there – doesn’t work that way

  14. Dude, Miami 2028 and 2030 1st-round picks aren't worth shit until closer to those years and the picks don't match Portland's timeline with Scoot and Shaedon. That's not something Portland should "hop all over".

  15. Joe Cronin needs to get off his stingy high horse and accept the reality he isn't going to get a better deal than when the Heat have offered. He's not getting a All-Star in return. The Blazers have a bright future with solid young core of Scoot, Shaedon, and Ant. They need to do right for Dame and get him to Miami. Take the boatload of picks and tade players you don't want for more picks and keep building.
