Miami isn’t giving up enough. I’m not sure why Brooklyn would give up all those picks. Doesn’t make sense.
We should for the shit we've had to put up with. They want Dame, they are going to pay with fucking flesh.
I agree on all this. BUT he agreed to a contract that pays him $45M/year. With the Blazers. Show up. Don’t be a lil bitch. He Benedict Arnold in my book now.
I just called work and told them to find me a new employer. They laughed like I was joking, said see you tomorrow.
Cronin will bend over. We’ve had positions of power and he bent over. Why would this be any different? We have less power here, I assume, in his eyes.
All this time we kept talking about the great and powerful Dame recruiting a star to the Blazers. But it was actually the opposite the entire time. Dame resisted for years, but finally caved. And fuck Miami.
I’m sure we’ll find out and the truth will come to light. It doesn’t appear we were offered legit deals.
ANALOGY BUT NO POLITICS ... I'm not a huge Walton fan. I admired his basketball game. Loved how he overcame stuttering to ascend the heights of superlatives and verbosity. But the 30 show recently rightly stated that he wasn't real popular at first with Portland fans for a variety of reasons. BUT when Walton physically went after a scrub center and for his actual play on the court, they got behind him. He showed up. Luke and Dawkins. I remember all of that as a kid. It's not that physical altercations are to be cheered in basketball ... not that they hardly ever are a quality throw down ... or cheering violence anywhere except in the ring ... BUT Joe would buy soooooo much credit if he just bucks up and does a decent to good trade of Dame ... and Nurkic.
