    Actually, Dame is pissed at me. I was supposed to stop by to see his new place but my dog needed a walk.

    So you don’t think it’s weird that there’s no photo evidence of Dame being at this workout like there was with Shaedon or the Thompson twins? It will be interesting to see if he’s visible at Millers workout.

    Finishing at the hoop is said to be the one thing Miller really needs to work on. Nurk already struggles to finish. Does anyone know if Brandon or LA helped in any drills with Oden & Durant. Or is that a big no-no?

    But i noticed it says 20h on the post. That would be 20 hours ago, right. Scoot hadn't worked out yet. Just saying. Then again , i could see celebrities, athletics, or even politicians having fun sending these out to befuddle people. Then laughing about it with their friends.

    Maybe he is talking about Jaylen Brown or Grant not wanting to sign with Portland?

    This is funny watching fans analyze / over analyze everything Dame cause while I am a huge Dame fan and in the camp of keep him even if it hurts the future if I am being honest about this whole situation this is how I feel. As much as I want him to remain a Blazer until he retires if you ask me the odds of him staying or being traded its 70 / 60 % STAY and 30 / 40 he gets traded. I will not lie if you would have asked me the percentage a month or so ago I would have said 85/90 Stay but I cannot get this feeling out of my stomach that Jody and Vulcan might decide to blow this up now and hope to build it back up before they sell it . It would be a huge gamble but if I am being honest keeping Dame and such is one too because of the money they would be shelling out to Grant and Brown or Bridges or whatever star they bring in for Dame. All that money let's say Grant for 28 to 30 million then the other Star at 32 to 35 at least that would only leave the Blazers like 35 to 50 million maybe a tad more to build a team and let's be honest Grant is the one who is kind of over paid in this kind of hamstringing the Blazers.

    This is why I really think the rebuild option is on the table and more realistic then some fan think and this is what scares me and what is keeping fans up at night. This whole thing is messed up and either way they go is a gamble and if I am being honest not sure there is a right answer cause each road has it's own problems for the future. All I can say at this point is Go Blazers and hope Cronin and co have a plan that does not bankrupt the future one way or the other.

    How about this one.
    Maybe it isn’t basketball related whatsoever?

    good lord this is embarrassing. you do realize the video we see of workouts are like the last 5 mins of it? Scoot even said he went and dapped up Dame at the PF today. Dame was out shooting as well and posted video of it.

    I think you need to take a walk and get some fresh air.

    Come on dude. Don’t be an asshole.

    He said he saw Dame when he walked in. There isn’t a single photo or video of Dame watching the workout. But there was a photo of Dame watching the Thompson’s. He was sitting next to Joe when Shaedon worked out.

    Do you think Dame would be happy if we drafted a 6’2 point guard?
