All that points to is the fact his value has never been higher and clearly the team should trade him.
No logic here. We recognize that we have the best offensive weapon in the league and we choose to trade him for his own good instead of building around him with an approach we haven't taken during his career, to this point? Help me make sense of this defeatist tactic.
nah....there's not a city in the NBA that is a better place to raise 3 kids that has clean air and drinkable water...Dame's no fool...he moved his whole extended family to Portland...not just himself. He's the Blazers Tim Duncan...book it! He'll have multiple gold medals and still live in Portland
exactly what is happening is that after 9 years of Olshey not building a good enough team around Dame, for various reasons, instead of Portland actually developing the vision and taking the risks necessary to at least attempt to build a contender over the next 2-3 seasons, lots of people want to see Portland just give up and trade Dame. To allow the fucking dipshit GM that locked Portland on a treadmill and failed Dame, actually be the one that trades him. It's insane
Duncan is the wrong comparison and one that Dame hasn't made because he probably pays attention to the fact that Timmy won a chip in his second season. Dirk is the comparison and if Dame stays the course and Neil or hopefully a better basketball mind can put the right players around him, he can get himself and this city that championship. It will be interesting if the gold medal he wins this summer makes him want to win a title here more or if that taste of ultimate victory makes him less patient.
What concerns me is about 3 years from now we’ll look back at this off season and regret we didn’t trade him. I hope I’m wrong
what's crazy is not only that, Per36, he averaged 47 points, he also averaged over 7 assists and 7 rebounds SGA was pretty insane as well
