    Dame is under contract. They don't have to convince him to stay.

    I doubt Dame's agent needed to convince him of anything. He was pissed.

    Lillard hired some big names for his new album. From the clip I heard, It sounds like happy & wealthy WuTang2.0 with medium pitched NBA player cutting in to drop middle school bars in a mono-voice tone.

    Maybe it's just to watch Barry Jackson flail away on Twitter.

    Blazers are getting trashed in power rankings. Convincing Lillard to stay? He's leaving because the Front Office lied about building a contender, and built a lottery grabbing tank team.

    There's about 10 different versions of Nate. Trying to correlate with the correct version of Nate at any given time creates a multitude of variables.

    They just signed Gary Trent Jr...I don't think he can be traded until Jan or something but I could be wrong.

    He was signed in a prior summer so he can be traded now.

    Nice 4-teamer, blazerkor!
    This would be a Tank-tastic trade for Portland (clear the salaries and a runway for Sharpe) but if the Nets get that much, the least they can do is trade Claxton.

    I don't think you take good players looking at unrestricted free agency when you're a tank-tastic team. Rather have those two picks.

    Natebot1000 jokes are the new Chuck Norris jokes

    Natebot1000 can strangle you with a cordless phone
    Natebot1000 doesn’t wear a watch. He decides what time it is
    Natebot1000 knows Victoria’s secret
    Natebot1000 destroyed the periodic table, because Natebot1000 only recognizes the element of surprise
    Natebot1000 once ate at Taco Bell and didn’t get diarrhea
    Natebot1000 can divide by zero
    Natebot1000 can sneeze with his eyes open

    If I say that I don’t know what the blazers are thinking, and then you post something like you’re trying to change MY mind about keeping Dame, makes zero sense. I didn’t say that I think we should keep Dame. I said I don’t know if the blazers think they should keep Dame. So write Joe an email.
