    dislike is too kind, the implication is dead wrong.

    I would love to be a fly on the wall during the meeting between Dame and LA.

    This is my first post, and it might be my last because I think the emotional stress of the past few days might actually kill me.

    Here's how it works....
    when the dust settles, regardless of what happens, tell everyone you predicted it in an earlier thread. You'll be a vet poster in no time!

    I don't like Dame going to see LMA. It was reported on the "best of days" they were distant. Bad days, "straight cold to each other" LA has resented Dame from the beginning, but dame is much more marketable. Puts his face out there, not to mention is putting up great numbers 3 years in. I see this hurting us than doing good. But, those who say they're not close could be completely wrong.

    It should, at the very least, speed up the process, one way or another.

    Lamarcus is like that jealous girl when it comes to Dame, it's truly stupid given the fact this franchise has embraced him and done everything to keep him happy. Including passing on other free agents just to wait out a decision. I guess if there is a time to have that talk between Dame and LA and make shit clear, it's now

    I don't like that it was Dame's agent who put this out there. The cynical side of me thinks this might be contrived.

    Aldridge is either though very unlikely screwing over a bunch a teams and is going to sign with the Blazers, or more likely he is on a big ass ego trip and doesn't care what teams he destroys, he just wanted to see what they would give up for him...he wants to feel important, but it really seems like its over his head at this point...pick a team...if you gotta do eeeny meeny miny mo do it, but pick a team

    I don't think Dame flies to LA strictly for reasons that are contrived.
