    Good. That's what he should be doing. He's the GM of the Blazers. He's not Dame's agent. His priority should be to make the Blazers better long term

    I was glad to read this earlier...I don't want a couple of Nick Stauskas and a contenders draft picks for Dame...I want a boatload of assets back for that max deal we gave Dame...I want a Dame for Wemby or Dame for Amen Thompson and players and picks...get the future out of this trade

    He can say whatever. I ultimately believe we’ll be feeling like we got pennies on the dollar.

    I'll hold my applause in until he actually does something worth cheering for.

    Cronin has no time pressure in this situation.
    Dame is the one whose clock is ticking.

    So we trade Norm, CJ, and GP2 where they want to go and that's fine, but now it'd be bad to do the same for Dame?

    If you really believe in Cronin then I have Oceanfront property in Iowa to sell ya -- LOL

    Cronin and Jody are lying sacks of crap until they prove to me otherwise so screw them both.

    Durant got traded where he wanted to go. Brooklyn was compensated. Fair enough.

    Are you an actual Blazers fan? Or just trying to lick Dame's balls?

    Agreed. Especially since Dame is in demand and Norm, CJ, and GP2 were not.

    If we got garbage back yes. Tired of doing other teams favors.

    The best for the franchise is to go full rebuild for 2-3 more years and take as many picks as possible from the Dame trade. Start fresh, no Towns or whatever and build a great team.

    I don't believe in Cronin at all. But I love where the Trail Blazers are right now. Wish Dame would have stayed.
