Dame on The Verge Of Asking Out!!!!

[god shammgod]

but that's based on the belief that rj is gonna have more value than all those guys together eventually. i don't believe that. it wouldn't shock me if by then end of next year iq is the better player. he had a better first year.

And trades aren't just about what you believe, but about what other people believe

How many GMs do you think who right now if they had RJ on their team would trade him for Quick straight up?

You believe Quick is the better prospect. Good for you. That's irrelevant because right now, RJ is the better asset because other people view him as better, and we'd have a better chance at trading for a 3rd star using him than anyone else on the roster. It also wouldn't be RJ for Dame straight up, we'd have to add more, probably at least one of Quick or Mitch

If you're making a move for Dame, you can't wait. His contract and Randle's basically mean we'd need to act before next offseason. So you should only trade RJ for him if you already have a deal for a 3rd guy completely done, or trade RJ for that 3rd guy. But trading RJ for Dame with no plan beyond that is not smart.

I'll settle this argument. We could offer IQ and RJ BOTH and Portland hangs up laughing.

probably right

Billups just became hc. Tough luck for him if Dame gets out

Billups is the reason Dame wants out now.

Should I start the Barrett appreciation thread now?

Dame Rj kawhi Randle Mitch

[HerSports85]

Two things have to happen before we even consider this a real possibility

1. Dame has to be asked to be traded to the Knicks and Knicks only

2. We have a second star lined up.

Dame does his part in decreasing POR leverage in trade talks.

Goodbye RJ + IQ + OB + Mitch + Knox?

Dame with two 20ppg scorers by his side just lost to a team missing Jamal Murray & Will Barton, you really think Dame + Randle and who knows what else is going to do anything other than lose in 6?

Whole lotta nothin' in that article.

I would of took it as "nothin" if someone else reported it, but this dude has been Dame's mouth piece for years

[snadler]

Yall wanted playoffs, we got playoffs, but we also hurt our trade package offers by not having a lottery pick.

By making the playoffs the knicks have made themselves a destination..and of course if they didn’t Dame wouldn’t have any interest in going to NY in the 1st place

[Capn'O]

I'll take him to Queen of Sheba Ethiopian. That place is the bomb and affordable on his rookie scale deal.

[ItsPajama]

Theres too many teams with way better packages than us. We're not even in the top 5-7 of best packages to offer for Dame

It'll take a strong commitment of Dame making it clear he wants to be in NY to get him here, and even then....I don't see it

It was reported that he had interest coming here?

Fair.

It sounds to me like he wants Olshey gone too. Maybe I'm just projecting.

[ShaolinAssAsin]

It seems most of us would agree that whatever offer we can put together for Dame can/would likely be beaten by others in a bidding war.

Ive been wondering if we would consider taking on CJ and that contract to get Dame. Questions for yall:

A)Doing so has to reduce the assets we'd send back (right?)
B) How much does the opportunity to clear that salary appeal to the Blazers?

Fake.

A real Jamaican eatery has Ackee & Salt fish on the menu and Callaloo.

$ 4.00 for a patty
$ 3.00 for plantins

That's some serious markup.

Best patties Golden Krust in Kingston and they were like ($1.00 US)

I absolutely don’t agree that whatever offer the knicks can put together would be beaten. In terms of teams willing to trade for Dame the knicks have the most assets of any team to make a deal happen..

Obi + IQ + Mitch + Knox + 19th + 21st + Maverick 2023 + future NYK 1st top 3 protected + future NYK swap

For Dame Dollah

Not a penny more.

Dame, RJ, Bullock, Randle, ________

Portland would be doing a fire sale + rebuild + tank
