    Don't you get it? Dame is cursed never to win a title. Any team who signs him acquires the curse.

    It would be like watching those Legends games that they used to have at All-Star weekend, but stopped because one of them inevitably got injured.

    In today's episode of the Locked on Pod, Richman's has a source "very close to Lillard" saying that he wants to come back to Portland. Mike rarely speaks this directly about a source or someone close to the situation. (He isn't Marang...). That's why I tend to give him credit here.

    One of Mikes sources is Jason Quick. They are very close.

    Does Richman mean Dame wants to come back to rehab in Portland or actually sign a contract with the Blazers?

    Shams reported on ESPN TV yesterday when the buyout news broke that Lillard would go back to his family in Portland this upcoming year for his rehab. That doesn't mean he'll have any role with the Blazers.

    The Lakers signing him makes no sense, tbh.

    By the time he comes back, LeBron will be a year older (if not in his full on retirement tour), Luka is the ball dominant guard, and what role would Damian have?

    You caught that. Nice. I figured it would go unappreciated.

    An unprotected pick, 2 swaps, and both our starting forwards for Dame and Nurk is an excellent haul.

    He'll be a Warrior, win a championship there with Steph Dray Jimmy and Terry, sign with the Blazers and win a championship here before retiring

    Yeah imagine the disaster our roster would be right now if we didn't have any of that and had a supermax Dame instead.

    Ah the good old days when many fans here didnt think we should trade Dame and that father time wouldn't come to collect their debt with him.

    Beautiful trade. Maybe even 1 year late.

    If we resign him it all works out and folks will get their beloved hero back on the squad.

    True, but Kyrie wasn't coming off of an Achilles tear and 36 years old
