    I think Joe has tried but I can't help but wonder if the lack of ability to do so via trade and free agency probably continues to speak to how important the draft is for the Blazers

    Just read an article saying Dame's meeting is to request re-signing Grant and signing Draymond Green....seems simple enough. Joe probably can clue Dame into any vets that he is working on signing.

    I feel like if Joe doesn't have actual trades on the table that satisfy Dame, then Dame is going to ask out and I don't think Joe will have that.

    I did find it interesting that in the Chris Haynes live he said that Dame doesn't need 2 or 3 all stars. He just wants some vets so he has a chance. Is that part still attainable? Guess we will see if Dame thinks so.

    Stop looking at your phone :lol:

    He said Dame doesn't want to be on a stacked team... sounds like Brooklyn to me.

    The video cuts off at the good part! He started talking about bringing along an agent to a meeting and then it cut off. Booooooooooooooooo!

    You think Dame needed his agent with him for that?

    If this clip is everything, then there is no evidence he's texting him during the meeting.

    ZERO chance at Draymond. Blazers don’t have cap room. He didn’t opt out of a 1 year 27 mil contract to sign for the same amount total but over 3 years… and on a less competitive team.

    Vets won't give him a chance. That's all that Neil ever gave him. Veteran players who would be in the rotation on a championship team, but not the key 1-3 guys. We need another star. We need a legit #2. That's not Grant and that's not Simons. Maybe one day that could be Shae or Scoot, but not today.

    His agent represents other NBA players that may interest Joe...at any rate I don't read anything impersonal about Dame and his agent showing up for a meeting about free agents. Joe and his agent have talked everyday, I'm sure the two of them can bring Dame up to speed.

    He said he got a text! We just don't know from who.

    LOL... no we don't. He certainly didn't say it was from Dame.
