    Where did this get mentioned on clutchpoints? Its a made up rumor. CJ even commented that he was happy to get freedom to run the offense more without dame. Doesnt make sense that hed want to go back to that.

    Dame is an A list celebrity now....these rumors are going to click bait away for the rest of his career....I can see CJ and him cracking up about this or even planting it just to fuck with spin doctors.

    of course it’s made up, but people will believe anything as long as it lines up with their own beliefs...confirmation bias. A guy with 0 posts could come on here and start a rumor about literally anything about the team, and you’ll have at least one person believe it.

    Nurkic is a free agent; so he can't be traded away at the draft.

    Read this a few places but not sure of its validity.

    Add Zion and Ingram to those two and you have a team. We had Aminu and Harkless.

    No way they give up Ingram. They want Dame/CJ/Ingram/Zion core.

    Do you want our team to suck? Seems that's when you enjoy the team the most so it does make sense.

    Ingram is a young star about to seriously break out. The is exactly what you want back for Dame

    One thing i watched pretty much the entire playoffs was Damian Lillard getting a bunch of airtime on commercials throughout. I'm not buying into the small market stuff any longer. I just don't see Lillard not making it because of where he is. The Blazers need to put a winner around him and the Pinwheel Logo will be just as popular as dame himself.
    These trade rumors also seem to be indicative of that as well.

    Dame to Houston for Wall, Smith, and future picks. Start over with Ant/Sharpe/Smith.

    This is the way.
