Lowry really coming back for the BAE lol.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

How is Lillard being overrated? The guy is still one of the most prolific scorers in the league coming off a season where he averaged 32/5/7 on 65 TS% which included 15 games of 40+ points (more than 1/4 of his GP) and one where he dropped 71 despite not having another all-star beside him.

There just isn't many ways we could realistically get him unless we somehow get a S&T/large TPE out of the FVV signing. Scottie + OG + filler (Thad/Boucher) + a few picks would probably get it done, but that leaves a pretty big hole on the wings.

That just not true. Scottie + Thad + Porter + Boucher + either Flynn or Achiuwa works pretty easily and actually keeps us under the tax. Thad and Porter are expiring deals so roster spots aren’t an issue.

It’s not that difficult.


Tell me how replacing FVV, Barnes, Boucher & Achiuwa with Dame catapults us to championship contender?

This would be awesome. Need him to retire a Raptor and I’d love having him as a mentor to Scottie and Dick for a year

Would hopefully be able to undo some of the damage Fred did

If anything, our move should be calling Eastern teams to see what they would give up for OG to shut Dame down.

It's more to do with Damian Lillard. And you are out of your god damn mind for severely overrating Damian Lillard for your own personal agenda.


It's actually more what the other team's can offer, too. The Heat have nothing going back that's worth overpaying with Barnes.

If the Nets really want Dame, they can beat us with better futures. That's pretty much the stakes.


It's actually more that Damian Lillard's not good enough or young enough to put us over the top and/or not worth mortgaging our futures over.

Portland is gonna send him to Miami for Pennies. That’s just the state of the league right now. Even the most loyal players are gonna hinder the future of their original team

OG + Boucher + Thad + Picks for Lillard. OG is better than anything else out there.

Lillard/ Schroder
Trent/ Dick
Barnes/ Porter
Siakam/ Precious
Poeltl/ Koloko

Yup, Suns for sure after he's bought out.
