    Awesome story. You know. I'm sure if you asked Dame he'd say he feels lucky to be the Trail Blazer.... But I'm pretty sure that it's the Blazers are lucky to have him.

    Yeah. I know. It's smacks of P.R. and I'm a cynical as anybody. But where Dame us concerned I chose not too.

    (Ohhh yeah. The cynicism remark.... I forgot about Tunchi. No contest there.)

    Damian was probably drinking like a fish at the time, because he either didn't have room at the camp or he did. If he did have room at the camp, why did he lie to the mom in the first place? And if he didn't, isn't it a safety concern to have an overpacked basketball camp? He doesn't care about children's safety!1!!

    And the second-largest contract in NBA history just kicked in for him! Why's he charging poor kids $325? Must want to gentrify his camp.

    I'm right here. That's a fantastic story. It just reassures what I always say on how he's by far one of the best leaders in the NBA up there with Lebron. Hands down.

    All I ask from him is work on his efficiency. Literally that's all I ask..
