    That's not close to fair. But we aren't going to get fair. So, oh well.

    Oh, lord. These are guys looking to create stories that are already more obviously there. Theey act like it's some kind of spy novel or they're Carl Jung practicing psycho-therapy. That's time I'll never get back.

    And they sound like a couple of nerds while doing it! I'm deducting extra points for that.

    So tired of the speculation and cryptic bullshit. If they know what it is Cronin said no to, spill it. We're already dragging him.

    That’s just it. ANYBODY on here who claims they know shit if completely full of it. Well except MM and his pizza guy.

    I could have sworn I saw both of them at an initiation for Lambda Lambda Lambda.

    This is funny. Sprague doesn’t know shit. He’s just repeating what Marang is telling him.

    Marang talks a good game. He says lots of things.... whether those things are true is anyone's guess.

    Let's just say, regardless of what I think, there's too much speculation on both sides to rule anything out, and that's as middle ground as I can put it.

    He and Marang were arguing on air when Dame made his trade request, Brandon has his own opinions.

    It's like asking two halves of a couple who just went through a nasty divorce about who's fault it was. You're just not going to get an objective answer.

    If the couple involved someone like Cronin, it'd be hard to take their side.

    Nearly two weeks into this saga:
    • I still love and admire what Dame has done for this franchise
    • I'm still disappointed the organization was unable to put more talent around him
    • I still don't know if there were recent deals I wish the Blazers would've made to keep Dame
    • I'm still uncomfortable trashing Dame or calling Cronin a liar
    • And I still want the Blazers to get the best deal possible.

    Says he'll do the right thing and talks about how he's committed to the other person and then his actions don't align with that at all.
