  1. Chris is so lost it's sad = TOR moving OG out of town "fast", if they can get "Dame-Time" = Dame better start fixing his brain towards pulling-off a "Kawhi" in TOR this season because if he doesn't his "overall ratings" will drop for sure

  2. What is the point of going to Toronto? He's going to be in the same situation as Portland.

  3. The Raptors have been delusional about their championship odds ever since Kawhi left so this is nothing new from them.

  4. Good choice…. now he can play for another loser then complain he doesn't get any respect…. (Salary $42.49 million in 2022. Such disrespect!)

  5. Noone giving up too much for a 33 yr old player who is undersized plays no defense and owed 200 million. That makes no sense blazers can keep him and continue to pick in the lottery

  6. If toronto will take him and trade all their best players. They will have him for 1 year or less, then trade him for picks and younger players and build again! Their current players are done winning!

  7. My one contention with the “They don’t owe Dame Anything” argument is that they have literally drafted his replacement or some near approximation of that in the last few drafts. That doesn’t mean they have to give him exactly what he wants at the expense of the franchise, but they’ve proven to him already that they were never serious about building around him. Anfernee Simons is a Damian Lillard lite that plays a little more off the ball and he is 6’3”, Keon Johnson is a 6’3” hyper athlete, Scoot Henderson is 6’2” hyper athletic Point Guard. They owed him competent general management with a vision for competing, they didn’t give him that. That all being said, he agreed to put up with their crap for upwards of 50 million a year so no one should shed tear…

  8. yall have some delusional reporting everything you can to get in the way of damn being happy. then bring up Boston or Philadelphia, nobody wants to play for either of your dream teams.. toronto is not sending 3 of its core players for dame it just isn't happening yall are thirsty for our players and they always come up in trade rumors sorry but it just ain't happening

  9. No way in hell toronto is giving up those three players for dame. That makes zero sense. They will just be a 6 seed in the East. I’m not buying this report.

  10. Lol I love how it was reported that Toronto wasn’t actually a frontrunner before this was even posted

  11. why would Toronto trade for him when he's literally said that if he goes anywhere but Miami he will demand to be traded again? they'd literally be throwing assets in the garbage. this sounds like a rumor made up by Portland to try to create fake interest to force Miami to improve their offer.

  12. It’s crazy how Rob can speak on an organization doing what’s best for them but when a player does what best for him it’s an abomination. It’s like they scared to speak against the organizations because they will lose certain opportunities.

  13. We cant give all the players,the Houston rockets will take tyler and make a third team.Rockets are excited to get tyler.Plz get dame to the heat.❤

  14. Heat get: Lillard and Eric Gordon
    Suns get: Duncan Robinson and Nurkic
    Nets get: Herro
    Blazers: Ayton, Dinwiddie, Jovic, Jaquez, and 3-4 picks

  15. If i was Memphis I would get on the phone n try to get a star for star!!! Ja n Dame get a new start n the NBA has grand headlines 😊

  16. They might now owe him, but he dont owe them either. So if he wants to make the rest of his time in Portland or trough trade talks contentious he has EVERY right to. If he gets sent to Toronto and they go on a losing streak, he has EVERY RIGHT to moap around and not give 100%. I'm with Dame.

  17. Pat Riley will go get harden,you all suck . Miami rules,your gonna get the rocket deal.😷😷

  18. Clearly it was a false report but I could've swore he was traded to the Heat weeks ago, so seeing anything about this is surprising. Not that I keep up on Dame news, although he's my favorite player, he slighted Boston (my favorite team) so idgaf if he gets to Miami 😂 Turning his nose up to Boston soured me on Dame a little bit.

  19. The best move for the blazers would have been to trade the pick or trade Dame on draft day. I don’t believe they thought dame and Scoob would play together because they play the same position so I think it’s a bad look for them to force Dame to request a trade

  20. Bucks should be trying to get him. Idk how they can pull it off though

    Trade jrue and Lopez…. Then sign Demarcus cousins?

    Giannis would have to carry the defense

  21. People are literally stupid. He could go to the Toronto Raptors until the end of the summer and then they could do a three-way team trade and send them somewhere else Dane Can still get what he wants and still goes to Miami 💯

  22. Toronto has a unique ability to get a superstar on a 4-year contract. They would be lucky to have Dame, if they wait around for another superstar they may not be inked to a long-term contract which will cause a flight risk.

  23. Why would any team give up their depth for a player who has proven he can’t win on a team without depth

  24. These trades are harder and harder to get, if you want someone's star player you'll lose your "other guys" and you'll be left with 2 or 3 superstars and the G League players

  25. It wouldn’t be Scottie, og and pascal it would be one of those three plus other young players and salary. I don’t think Toronto will do it though
