@ClutchPoints Yep, the entitlement these opportunistic stars like Lillard, Simmons, Irving, etc show is definitely bad for the Association. Loyalty is a lost value.... players ignore contracts, devoted fan bases, and teammates to chase rings. Plus the selfishness is a bad example for kids.

@Dame_Lillard What's to know? You don't want to honor your contract with the Blazers, and you want them to take a lowball Miami offer and hurt the team's future in the process, and your agent is tampering with other teams by telling them you won't play for them. Seems pretty clear to me. 🤷‍♂️

@highkin Brog won't mind playing 30 min a game and not wearing himself out in an 82 game season, as the fourth highest paid player on the team. And it's unrealistic to think the Blazers will go a whole season with no guard injuries, and he knows that. Good chance he starts later on.

@wojespn The Blazers aren't required to trade him at all. Kobe Bryant demanded a trade in '07, and the Lakers told him no. He was forced to continue what turned out to be a long and successful career and legacy with a single team. The same thing can happen in Portland. Everybody wins.

@RealGM Dame didn't care about the future of the team. He just wanted to get an All-Star in town on his timeline. Cronin was wise to not make a bad deal just to please one player. However, these young studs will be stars before Dame's contract ends. And Dame will be on an old Miami team.

@pbriggsiam @ClutchPoints There are questions that need to be asked before signing contracts totaling 450 million, as Lillard has done. Once you agree to play for a certain team, honor your agreement, then opt out (as Lillard can in his final year) or wait until free agency.

@TheNBACentral @GregSylvander Throw in Caleb Martin and I think Cronin takes that deal. Then he can package Herro, Nurkic, and Robinson + some 2nd rounders for an impact defender at the 3 like OG Anunoby. Then trade a couple 1st rounders and Nas Little for Myles Turner, and the Blazers will be competitive.
