And I think what made that 2004 Piston team so good is they had the most top 50 players on their roster that year
They were very good if you look at their roster

What made them good was they could all shoot and defend at a high level and had a generational defensive talent in the middle

I’m against trading for Dame. I think it’s fool’s gold. Our team isn’t ready yet. We’re too young and don’t have solid defense pieces. We would give valuable assets and good players away, and after 3 years with Dame (who turns 33 this month with his numbers bound to decline, increased risk of injuries, his huge contract a burden) come out empty-handed and those assets and players gone. Ainge hasn’t made a mistake yet. Hope he can keep it that way.

All I know is that next year would be a lot more fun with Dame than without Dame. I think if we want him, we can definitely get him. I trust the front office to make the decision, but privately, I'd rather have my cupcake now than, possibly, in 2029.

The Jazz havent had someone as good as Lillard since Malone. He'd be the 2nd most talented Jazz player ever.

You have to get some but in THT he’s be okay here. I don’t think it’s impossible but without that assurance are we going to make the right type of offer.

I still think this ends with Dame Nurkic going to Miami… Portland will get 3-4 firsts (2 from Miami and 2 elsewhere) by routing Jacquez and Herro elsewhere. Might have to take a bad salary like Ben Simmons to do it but it’s in the ball park of what we’d offer for a grumpy Dame.

I fixed it for you. But yeah trading for Dame would only make sense if we were cash strapped had huge contracts of bad vets to justify moving those picks etc.
 
F Dame time, this site is so full of fools smh sorry to those of you who know your ****. I would rather watch weeds grow than spend the next few seasons knowing we have a great regular season star that has never won a ****ing thing and wont without someone better than him as his batman.
