    Relax, guys, it was a joke. Combining the claim that Dame "supposedly" wants out and the fact that he wants a supermax deal from the Blazers.

    I prefer my text the way I prefer my coffee and my "lives matter" activism--black.

    Sorry, I know, no politics. I don't look down on those who like milk and sugar in their coffee--much.

    Milk and sugar is for boomers. I strictly use processed sugary vanilla creamer!

    I'm tired of being the guy who always has to settle for less. The Blazers are that guy. Fuck trading Dame , unless he absolutely wants out. Trade him so you get a Yugo (Otis Thorpe) in return for Clyde Drexler. Fuck That! I don't care if potential GM's don't want the Blazers gig if they can't put Dame on the board. Fuck those Pansies. Dame is 31 not 38. He keeps himself in incredible condition. He's no Zion. He's special. He cares. Even if he does want the super max extension. Give it to him. Cause a new owner IS going to want him on the team. If he's traded i'm pretty sure the value of the team will drop by at least a half Billion. So an extra 100 mil. now is paltry in comparison to how a Dame trade will bring down the value. Keep the Ferrari and add a couple G Wagons around him. No more Yugos in Portland.

    do you see a red door and want it painted black?

    no colors anymore you want them to turn black?

    do you see a line of cars and they're all painted black?

    sorry...I just got rolling...maybe I'm stoned

    Chris Mannix: There has been some reporting over the last couple of days about Damian Lillard interest in playing with Ben Simmons, about his interest in a long-term extension with the team. For whatever it’s worth… From Lillard side, I’m told, none of that’s true, that Lillard has not expressed any interest in acquiring Ben Simmons and that since he’s not eligible for a max extension, yet, there haven’t been those discussions either.

    It's amazing on how fast rumors start with the media.
    Dame is under contract and still will be when we hire a new GM.

    Yes they do! Dame if he plays his Caaads right could end up part owner down the road. Paul would never had let Dame go unless he demanded it.

    Unless there's other moves coming that make this all come together, I can't imagine a scenario where Dame approved this trade.
