GordonComstock posted:Is there any other player like Chris Paul? A historically great player who’s played on so many different teams? It’s got to be a huge knock on him that so many teams decided he couldn’t be the guy. Looking at WS only Shaq jumps out for also being on so many teams towards the top. But he was also clearly cooked for his last two. This is pretty much just because of the length of his career.

This is how I imagine FVV reacting to that Rockets offerquote:my agent is like, ‘Yo, Portland wants to give you seventy. Like, seventy-million.’ I’m like, ‘Seventeen?’ And he was like, ‘No, seventy.’ I’m like, ‘No, seventeen?’ And he’s like, ‘No, like seventeen a year.’ And I’m like, ‘Wait, like dollars?! Seventy-million DOLLARS?!’ You know what I mean? And he’s like, ‘Yeah.’ And I’m like, ‘drat, bruh, this is wild.’

As a Portland fan, I hope they send Dame wherever he wants. Also as a Portland fan, if they can dump Nurkic in the process, I'm so sick of Nurk.

OzFactor posted:Here's what I keep thinking about : if we take everyone at their word and Dame really was waiting to see what the team would do to set up for him between the draft and the first round of signings, what was the non-Portland signing where he said "welp, that's it, I'm out?" Like, who specifically was he waiting for and didn't get? I wonder if he told them "get me Draymond or I'm out" and they said "we'll try!" It was probably them resigning Grant and doing literally nothing else to improve the team. Portland signing Edy Tavares must not have moved the needle as much as they hoped.

Fast Luck posted:yeah I mean there's a salary floor, once you ship out Dame you might as well have Nurkic getting paid. What else are you gonna do, you're clearing cap space before you see what Scoot/Shaedon can do, for what? To sign Tobias Harris and Valanciunas on $40m/2 year deals that'll end when the Nurkic contract was ending anyway? It's also typically much more valuable for Portland to have good players under contract than cap space, because free agents do not want to play there so trades are basically all they've got.

I hope this is true and Dame gets a ring wherever he goes next year and then the Blazers win every ring forever after that, make it happen Cronin

The only time Nurk has even a decent attitude is when he's getting lots of touches, and well let's see looking at Phoenix's roster well hmmmm

Scoot and Sharpe are presumably Portland's future backcourt, so Simons is a bit of a stopgap anyway

I actually think Phx does fine out of this if Nurk is healthy for the playoffs (big if). He's a downgrade from Ayton, but Little and Allen can both play so maybe some extra depth for the regular season. IDK I don't love it for them but I can kinda see it.
