  1. deep vein thrombosis? Wasn't Dame one of the first to get and promote the Jabby wabby? Hope it isn't true, but he never seemed right after that.

  2. I called it from the beginning. Love dame in Portland. He should finish there, the love this man in Portland

  3. Dame has had so many great performances for Portland. But in his time there, so many players were traded to and from the Blazers to try to fit around him. It was very odd to me after the year the Blazers went to the WCF, that nearly the whole starting roster left. I think there is more to that story. In the two years that Dame left, the blazers seem to be taking on a new identity and trying to recreate OKC or the Pacers. I hope the Dame and the Blazers go in this new direction rather than trying to go back in time.

  4. Family is everything. he wasn't happy away from them, and now he gets a year to recover and mentor Portland's young guards before coming back on the court.

  5. I think a lot of people who say it doesn’t make sense basketball wise don’t understand the Blazers missing pieces. They’re relying on development yes, but the missing piece is a vet leader in the locker room and offensive fire punch bc they’re so defensive heavy rn. There’s only three guards that’s Jrue scoot and Dame Shaedon is a guard that can play wing too this. I think Dame prob wouldn’t have came back if he didn’t think they can compete when he’s recovered. His role will depend on scoots year this year if he breaks out I don’t even think dame would care about coming off the bench. Also the team is up for sale dame has always stated he wanted a stake in ownership so maybe that’s another part of it as well. The blazers in 3 years will be contenders and Dame is the perfect mentor to help Chauncey with the transition of the culture esp bc he was the foundation

  6. Having your kids close to you tops everything if you are a real father. I hope he kids gets the Disney ending in Portland and gets the championship but he is already a winner a great father that won the lottery in Milwaukee and gets to play in front of his kids

  7. As someone who lives right across from Portland, this makes me so excited. Imma be going to the games again FS

  8. This video summarizes Dame's situation very well. Other people may not realize it but Dame is royalty in Portland. He will be welcomed back with open arms and he knows it. It's his home and his family's home and that's what matters at this point in his career.

  9. I'm surprised that you didn't mention Allen Iverson's homecoming back to the Sixers 👎🏾👎🏾 lol other than LeBron 1x and MJ 3x (out of first retirement) have produced Championships?

    are there any more examples anyone?

  10. “Dam doesn’t need Championship Rings to validate his career!” That might be true but a Ring or two or three would not hurt but his career is over! He won’t beat his torn Achilles tendon.

  11. Everybody here in Portland is stoked to have him back. Going to Blazer games has been pretty sad these last 2 seasons.

  12. Okay I get leaving home to go and complete a task. But to come back home and the task not be completed is just bs.
    I am not feeling this character arch.

  13. He happy to be home. 🙁 the NBA business need to change and players need to have better control on where they want to settle as moves are affecting their family as well.

  14. I don’t want to hear any excuses of your internet being slow. Do your job Mike ! 🤣 jk keep up the good work

  15. Wait, Jrue is on the Blazers now? Okay, I hope they win a ring in Portland while he's there 😁
