    I think this deserves its own thread instead of being buried in that Durant mess.

    Clearly, that tweet is Dame's commitment to stay in Portland for the rest of his life. How can you not see that?

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Durant also tweeted disgust about players joining superteams in 2010, when he wasn't being targeted. We'll see what Dame says in 2021, when the cap spikes to 250M (unscientific projection) and the Warriors want to go with a super small lineup.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Imagine how often this tweet will be posted when Lillard joins a superteam in a big market in 2022. Possibly more often than it's being posted now.

    Scared the living shit out of me. I get yahoo updates on my phone and it said "Breaking News"

    Oakland Native Damian Lillard.....at this point my heart sunk. I was like "oh shit, what happened?"

    Then read on...

    on prospect of joining hometown Warriors. "hell no!"

    Seriously scared me

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Twitter, Reddit? I'm embarrassed for you guys. Are you stuck in the '80s?

    All news these days comes first through Snapchat and Periscope.

    Dude, you can't even navigate reddit.

    And before you send me your monthly, "You were mean to me, I'm quitting as mod!' PM, please no I was only kidding.
