The Dame appreciation thread

Thank you Dame you're right to ask for a trade, the ownership doesn't appreciate you and the GM is a fucking snake.

 

Good luck Dame. Hope you finish your career here coming off the bench when we win a title with Scoot and Sharpe

 

Honestly, I'm in shock and sad. I realized on Draft night this was coming, but I'm still trying not to get too sad. Oh man, I think of all those clutch shots, 0.7 and the "rip citttaaayyyy!!!!" that followed, the step back over Paul George, the "Best statistical playoff game of all time" against Denver in game 5. So many memories. Lillard Legend, I'm actually in favor of retiring the Letter O.

Now the question is, do I go with the team and trade him to Brooklyn for 5,000,000 picks (yes) or do I trade him to Miami so he can wing a ring because I love Lillard? At this point, we are parting ways, welcome to Brooklyn Lillard.

 

Thank you Dame for the fun years! Wish you and your family well.
Hope to run into you again on the Willamette this summer.
I think you would fit well in San Antonio......

 

Sorry, But I feel like I have been lied to, over and over again. I can't be grateful for the deep disappointment left by a person I honestly believed in. Wonderful ball player....with feet of clay, just like the rest of us.......

 

Please merge with Lame Illard thread (or whatever it's called)

 

Bye Felicia.

I don’t blame him for wanting out, but I hope the team takes care of itself first.

 

Sheed was my favorite Blazer until Dame came along and what a ride it has been with him leading the team. Has brought us some great moments through the years did the man from little old Weber State lol. Sucks he is going, but he will always be a part of the red and black and I do wish him the best, until he faces us of course lol.

I know some may dislike him for requesting a trade, but tbh, I do not blame him. He wants that ring, and that was not gonna happen in Portland anytime soon without totally ripping up the team.

Whoever he lands with, I know he will do great for them.

As for the Blazers, we move on and look forward to looking at our young guys grow.

Scoot, its your team now.

 

Damian is such an amazing gifted NBA player. It became so normal for us watching Lillard rip opponents to shreds. It's going to surprise many Blazer fans seeing how good a happy Dame plays while he's busting up the league with a franchise geared towards winning.

 

I appreciate you Dame, and I'll root for you on any team you play for.

That said, I hope the Blazers send you to whoever gives them the best return.

A big part of me died today. It's an absolute nightmare. I have grown to love you , not only as a player, but as an extended part of my family. You are "rip city".

I will be forever grateful for all the fantastic moments. When the odds against the team winning looked insurmountable, you showed us otherwise. Game after game after game , you came through.

I only wish this ending could turn out different. With you bringing home the trophy , with late game heroics , for Portland. But I understand. You will always be the ONE.

Thank You from the bottom of my heart. I Love You Man. May God Bless you in your endeavors. Kenny from Vancouver.

 

@SlyPokerDog ??? Premature?
He hasn't been traded yet? Mayne this is a Black Mamba Ruse to give Joe one last ditch effort?


(Im still in partial denial, so there’s that.)
