    It's silly that there are so many threads for such a inconsequential topic as Dame requesting out of Portland.

    Don't know.

    I think Cronin has a clear idea of what he wants and doesn't care who he gets it from.

    I think it would be easier to guess what the Blazers will get in return.

    A young forward/center with upside, or who's already proven, and draft picks.

    This trade works you could throw in Zack collins as well and deal still works. Throw in some first rounders three possibly done deal upload_2023-7-3_14-41-27.png

    Can you point me to a thread with a poll that has to do with where Dame gets traded?

    We have a thread about Dame's request, and we have a thread about post-Dame trade roster construction, and we have a series of team-specific threads about options.

    I know it would be easier for you if there was just a "BASKETBALL" thread, but most of us want to have a bit more nuance in our conversation.

    It would be nice to have a similar roster to Cleveland , full of defense in the frontcourt, though with a bigger backcourt with better defense.

    @SlyPokerDog keep your dog on a leash. Ed we have 20 Dame threads, it’s ridiculous. You leave for 1o years, show up and now this front page is a mess. Save your “nuance” bullshit for one of these nerds. We don’t need a new god damn thread for everybody’s random thought. Clean it up, earn your check.

    Sochan would be great with Scoot and Sharpe.

    HCP is such a fan of single threads, I bet if you pulled a loose one in his pants his ass would be waving in the wind.

    Oh, jeez, now I have figure out how to purge that image from my mind.

    Yeah, I’m kind of surprised he wants them merged. My guess is his blurry image thread would be knocked from its perch.

    Given we've seen guys like Harden and Durant get traded to their #1 option multiple times and guys like Davis, Kyrie, Melo, etc get traded to their #1 option as well; I'm going to guess Dame will fall in that category?

    Is the situation exactly the same as each one of those? No.

    I think it'll be a 3 teamer and either ant or nurk or both will be rolled in to give us more flexibility on returned assets.
    as far as who exactly, who knows.
    but i want a decent up n coming C and a good swingman as key parts, maybe a vet for the kids and boatload of picks.
