The problem is Joes been saying that teams knowing well he going to help Dame get to Miami. Joe will not let this go to long he wants a fresh start with the meeting the Vulcan qtrly goals that end in 90.
Not any worse then the other poo poo platter deals rumored. We could pay him more than anyone else. Not sure if we should or would.
Wouldn’t Dame want to play in PHX with fellow ring chaser KD? Could we realistically make Dame and Nurk to PHX for Ayton work?
He has to say that, and mean it, or other teams will think they can just bend us over. If it were me, I'd hold out as long as necessary whether Dame ended up sitting or whatever.
As he should...Who cares about a single player, this about building a team and Dame is making it difficult. He is the bad guy at this moment.
he will re-sign with boston (although hes given the impression that hes not very happy there, but money talks and theyre contenders) if boston wants dame, they can extend brown and work on a sign & trade (if thats what would make brown happy)
He can afford to send his kids to private school, one that doesn't 100% adhere to State School policies.
Joe Cronin was in a shit position from a PR standpoint. He played a game of chicken with Dame and he's winning...Damn fine job for the guy hired to build a team in a small market.
Hell he could afford to have his kids fly to Portland for school each day and return back to Miami for the night lol.
your definition of "winning" is bizarre. tanking consecutive seasons, giving up veteran talent for shitty draft picks, running the best player who wanted to win HERE out of town... is not my definition of winning.
Fuck that shit. Miami needs to find acceptable assets for Herro, not Portland.....and they won't be able to IMO.
