    "Not true."

    However, he did also say he hadn't decided on his future as well. That is at least a bit concerning.

    Dame said about Neil and Billups flying down, "There is a conversation to be had."

    The USA is no longer an Industrial Nation but a information nation, the only problem is only a percentage is accurate or useful, otherwise a waist of time and energy.

    So no trade (yet) and Chauncey and Neil are meeting with him (straight from Dame). So it sounds like it’s up to Neil and the organization to keep him.

    He’s basically saying to Neil, if you think you can just run it back with the same roster, I’m out.

    He wants to win an championship here. He wants Neil and his teammates to take it seriously.

    Eventually he may ask to be traded in the years to come.

    It’s so obvious this whole thing is about putting pressure on Olshey, and that’s it.

    Dame keeps it so real man... Chauncey could transform the team, but the roster as stands is not a contender.

    He's clearly just pushing the shit out of Olshey over and over. Good enough for me. I'm done with this shit.

    Yeah, he wants some trades to overhaul the roster. That’s basically what he’s saying.

    good for him for doing that. Enough is enough with this run it back bullshit. Time for CJ to go, he’s our best asset.

    Love that he basically flat out contradicted Neil with the "it's just a coaching thing and not the roster" nonsense.

    this isn't in dame's heart to truly want out. you can just tell it.

    he's trying so hard to put pressure on neil, et al, but it just isn't him.

    It's not true that LMA asked to be traded? Boy, I sure am glad you were in the room to dispel that rumor. And obviously it all turned out to be false because LMA re-signed here and is widely considered the best Blazer of all time, right?......... right?
