The unspoken was that the Blazers were going to try to accommodate Dames wishes. Since you could argue they didn’t at all, I’m much much much less confident.
I know this might not sound entirely logical… But what if they are taking it down because they are in the process of transitioning to next years theme? No, Dame is gone so we ripped his poster off the wall. Yeah… That narrative sounds much better. Let’s go take bubble baths by candlelight and eat ice cream.
Likely that. They have new players to add alongside Dame. It's terrible timing if anything. It's not proof he is being traded and even Jenny made a joke about that. If he is and that's why they were taking it down, that's terrible class. No way fans should find out that way.
