I was told by a Heat fan on twitter that Herro for Dame straight up is more than fair because it's two star level players :lol:

Reload just called the KO thing like two weeks ago. Was watching that ended up being a big call there earlier than last Weds if I iirc.
Edit: KP lol my damn phone knows I’ve been trying to fake trade for Olynyk for over a year dammit.

We're only "screwed" if he signs it. If Houston, Atlanta, or Brooklyn offer it, they can move to a S&T as long as Brad keeps playing poker.

He was my favorite non Celtics player until he said that ish about Celtics and now he only wants to go to Miami his fans are drying up. I suspect many fans of his came from not Portland sure there is home fans which he pissed off off but most of his fans were from other teams and when you isolated them well now he is wondering why lol

Dame is a piece of ****, plain and simple. He waited until after they gave Grant a franchise crippling contract before asking out officially.

He could’ve done this before the draft and the Blazers could’ve gotten some nice picks for him. Now they’re totally **** & it’s because he chose to ask out 24 hours after free agency started.

Grant can only play in the front court with other Williamses.

Nah you just subconsciously acknowledged what we all have known for years, KP and KO are the exact same player.

They will work something out. RFA's generally don't leave unless that team doesn't really want them anymore. Even if they don't they usually get like a 2nd rounder or something out of it worst case.

I haven't been reading the board as much lately but I ran across this and hadn't seen it posted here so, with a big FWIW from WEEI

https://www.audacy.com/weei/sports/celtics/celtics-reportedly-interested-in-patrick-beverley

I love an instigator on the team and with Marcus and potentially Grant gone that leaves a hole to be filled. Need at least one a-hole.

Not sure if it's legal, but Blazers could just sign-and-trade Grant to Lillard's new team. Force them to take on that silly contract.

I think sign-and-trade can only be for 4 years, with lower raises.

Correct me if I am wrong but Pat Bev signed somewhere yesterday

Realistically, even if I didn't have a stiffy to leverage this into getting a rookie contract big for Timelord insurance/succession planning, Grant's scoring opportunities are likely to be worse in Boston this year than it was last.

Oh, right. Thanks. Maybe they can move him later on.

Yeah, that is an especially unctuous, punk tweet after what he just did to Portland.
