For the first time ever, I’m siding with Harden over Dame.

2 completely different situations. Harden is past his prime dame is in it.

Not so sure. Dame was bad last year. You’re going to say “injuries”, I’m going to say the same thing.

Wait, how is this even possible? I heard Jody Allen wasn't even returning his calls.

I feel bad for Blazers fans, and Wizards fans.

Dame's loyalty is great, but he shouldn't have gone public several years ago about staying loyal, not wanting to join and superteam and basically saying he was a Blazer for life.

It was nice intentions, but it basically took all pressure off the organization to surround him with a better team.

Which one’s worse, this contract or Bradley Beal’s?

Ridiculous for a play in team.

$60 million in years 4 and 5 may not be that much with inflation. By then you will see $70 million per year deals for Luka and Giannis

The opposite of Harden. Love him as a player, but this is beyond selfish. Take a paycut, and you can actually build a team around you. Better yet, ask for a trade, and don't handcuff a team to your probably top 15- top 20 self.

Beal is worse, giving that contract to a 2nd option is dumb

Clippers will be waiting for his buyout in 2026 to snatch him up.

(JK, I wish him the best in Portland)

At least Dame is fun to watch and occasionally be dat dude who you don't wanna mess with. Beal ain't even fly bruh.

Luka or Giannis will almost certainly become the first $100M per year player, depending on how the next TV & streaming deal looks.

I am surprised Lillard agreed to it, I thought Lillard would be asking to be trade for a chance to win a championship but I was wrong

Eww blazers

I cannot believe hes making 60 mil a year, insanity lol

NotAKnicksFan · Post #59 » by **NotAKnicksFan** » Fri Jul 8, 2022 11:10 pm

Blazers wont even make the playoffs

Man the way the salary cap was created just made it do so called superstars and of course superstars can make insane amount of money.

How does a player who has very little to show for in winning, possibly a good chance not even going to make playoffs earn 60 million a year lolol
