    If you read the responses, it shows a few things. For starters, it shows that most fans are complete morons who have no idea how the CBA works (or what the CBA is), and it also shows that Henry got exactly what he was interested in; clicks/engagement.

    Doubling down and still getting clicks. Crazy world we live in with Twitter. When everything was in print nobody would have published something like this.

    This kind of leads me to think that Dame isn't OK with CJ being traded. :/

    At least the back and forth is pretty funny.

    But on a serious note. He's probably okay if CJ is traded for a true star. But not for just some random spare pieces or a sidegrade.

    the bad thing is, Henry knows more people will believe him since most people refuse to actually believe anything outside of their comfort zone.

    Politics, sports, religion, etc, people don't like living outside of their bubble. Henry is just grifting his way into a bigger contract with whoever. I mean, look at how much engagement he's getting!!1!

    i hate that henry is going down on this path. he was the father of modern NBA blogging in the early 2000s, and i loved that he was a homegrown dude.

    that said, even after all the refuting, there is probably some truth to this.

    obviously not the sitting out part or the paycut part, but the pressure on the org still remains.

    Just like last time, his true poop guys will start hitting shows like Cowherd to spew venom at the Blazers. Total joke, and lack of professionalism. I guess their motto is, "Throw enough shit at the wall, sooner or later, some will stick".

    Yes, I ate my words for that one. But now I accept what a liar that ass hole is. I learned later what an ass he was and how it was kept so so private.
    I don't equate Lillard with Aldridge, do you?

    they keep refuting only the $ thing, but nothing about a trade request or his desire to play with an athletic big.

    He has already made $300 million?.....in a small market like Portland?
    So no need to go to a large market?

    BTW if those figures are correct, he has already paid well over 100 million in taxes. Thank you Dame

    Did Abbotts time at ESPN transform him from the GOOD writer to a complete moron who is almost starting to make Clownzano look OK
