    If it was correct maybe it was too soon and he wasn't supposed to say anything yet, so he removed it.

    Or maybe it was incorrect so he removed the false statement.

    It's one thing to spam the board with worthless shit constantly, it's quite another to do it from parody sites.

    Heard on the radio. Toronto's play is obtain Dame and lure Giannis to join him in Toronto.

    As for the trade:

    Dame for OG, Dick, expiring, swaps

    Swaps aren't enough. I want AT LEAST one pick, maybe two.

    I agree with you, but that's what I heard. Maybe the picks are the sticking point.

    I think Portland is going back to Miami to give them an opportunity to match/beat Toronto's offer.

    I found this guy on Toronto's board with this message:
    https://forums.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=32&t=2321128&start=262#wrap

    I looked up his other posts and he seems to have a very good handle of the Front office situation. I have to 100% believe that Joe would go back to Miami and ask them to beat the offer. If they don't, then it's a much easier sell to Dame where you can legitimately tell him we gave Miami every opportunity to show us they wanted to have you.... but they weren't willing to negotiate in good faith.

    I'm guessing we'll hear something official tomorrow.

    The end goal better be Portland ending up with Bam or Barnes and all their future picks or I am going to curse under my breath

    IF this is all true…


    Ayton
    Grant/Murray
    OG/Dick
    Simmons/Sharpe
    Scoot

    That's a nice young core minus Grant(age) and the best balance in over a decade. I’d actually be excited to watch games.

    This is the pod that Sean Highkin went on yesterday. They did a show today and they’re basically dumbfounded that they could maybe get Dame for OG and parts.

    They’re the first group that seems to actually understand how good Dame is.

    It's not bad, but it's not like they are offering Barnes. I don't necessarily think that's a "jump on it" deal. Plus isn't Achiuwa unavailable until the 10th of October or something?
