    It's because the world thinks that Dame wants out. This isn't going to go away.

    Even a moron like me knows that is a laughable offer. Not a single starter for a perennial all star?? WTF?
    I get it, you as a journalist have to write shit. But how can the thought not even occur to you that portand would want AD back? Are you so much of a homer that logic eludes you? So the lakers have cake, get more cake, and get to eat it all if too, and just because you think it sounds like a fun trade. Two words for the author of that piece: fuck off.

    Thybulle would be a game changer for Portland.

    He’s who I'd target — for CJ

    Simmons, Thybulle, Milton, 1st rounder I probably pull the trigger if Dame is unhappy. All 3 are 24 years old.

    CJ/Milton(or Maxey)
    Powell/Simons
    RoCo/Thybulle
    Simmons/Nas
    Nurk/?

    I’m assuming Ben is the PG in this scenario. Old man would be CJ/RoCo at 30

    Dame is getting older, if we get a Brown or Simmons+ package we at least have another 6 years to bitch about getting better players around our star.

    LeBron and AD would be pretty unrefuseable - that must be what they had in mind.

    Technically that headline is true by definition.

    The Blazers will have no problem refusing the rejects on the Laker roster. Plus Father Time is ticking LOUDDDDDD on LBJ, and the Unidufus is glass. That compensation is pure spoiled mustard yella & purple sludge.

    It's quite pathetic how much the media is basically rooting for Dame to be traded to the Lakers.

    Or maybe Bucks or Brooklyn.

    There is no reason to trade Dame for some role players…
    Hopefully he wins a chip with the Blazers like Dirk did with the Mavs - Dame and Blazers deserve it.

    That's not one of the 4 teams Dame wants, sorry.

    We can trade him anywhere, he doesn’t have a no trade clause. I’ll stop watching the NBA if we trade him in conference to the Lakers.

    Unless Dame's prepared to sit out the next 4 years, who gives a shit?

    Raptors weren't on Kawhi's list, and unlike him, Dame's locked up for years.

    Don't worry, Adam Silver will step in. It's called "The Chris Paul Rule" and Olshey has benefited from it before.
