like it was all for this moment. it wasnt about the fans, it was about dame. this reaction from blazers fans is the point. To make him know this is his new home. not just a stop off

I wanna pod with you Shaffty, we could have some real vintage Tony/Wilbon banter, I think.

Right. Glad to know the bucks care about us

ETA: I realize these businesses don’t truly care but at least act like it

I'm west coast but would love to find the time.

I do get the big welcome from a Dame appeasement angle, but at what cost? Lots of fans stood around for 4+ hours and most didn't even see him arrive. That's a disservice to our great fans. They could have thrown any number of bones, instead they got, "what is Dame's rapper name?" Trivia.

I agree with Shaffty’s take that it wasn’t for/about the fans, but they absolutely could have made it more worthwhile for the fans who went. Seems like it was pretty poorly organized even if you don’t factor in them not being able to do anything about travel delays.

Catching up as I, for one, did not care to follow this today.

Did the Bucks really come out in some forum and say this was not for the fans? That is a take, if so.

Think everyone is saying that fans waited for 5 hours so that the Bucks could get their 10 second video for the gram.

Edit: never mind, saw the quote "It wasn't for the fans." Who said that?

They got their photo ops out of it, at least media day coming up so soon will wash this away pretty quickly.
