Is Dame Time Requesting A Trade Really A Bad Thing For Portland?
Transcript
00:00 Lillard requesting out is not a problem.
00:06 I said he should.
00:07 J.Y. said he should.
00:08 You at home watching and listening said the exact same thing.
00:12 Portland also drafting Scoot and getting rid of Dame, not a problem.
00:16 We all said that's what Portland should do.
00:20 So Damian Lillard then right crosses the line by saying I'm going to Miami only.
00:25 But the NBA stepped in and they fixed this whole thing for Portland.
00:28 So J.Y. tell me, yesterday, how many reports did we get from Woj, from Shams, from Haynes
00:35 about all the other teams now that feel like they can make the phone call to Portland and
00:38 bring in Damian Lillard?
00:40 The answer to that is of course zero, not one.
00:44 Okay, so you could beat this deal easily.
00:46 They could.
00:47 They don't want to.
00:48 Philly could beat this deal if they included Tyrese Maxey.
00:51 They're not including Tyrese Maxey.
00:53 Here is where we are.
00:55 The only team that is offering up even remotely enough to acquire Damian Lillard is the Miami
01:03 Heat.
01:04 The alternative option for Portland, who put themselves in this spot, is finding a way
01:10 to get Damian Lillard to come back and play in Portland next season, which they don't
01:19 even want because they want to start Scoot Henderson.
01:23 Do you get it now?
01:26 Stop blaming Dame.
01:27 The memo's out.
01:28 Where's the reports of the teams that are calling on Dame?
01:31 They don't exist.
01:33 They don't exist.
01:34 Boston pay Jalen Brown and a GDP of a small country.
01:39 They want nothing to do with Damian Lillard.
01:43 Nothing.
01:44 Oh, the Knicks could beat the deal.
01:46 They already got the six two point guard in the building.
01:48 Do you understand now?
01:50 Stop feeling bad for the buffoons that have been destroying this situation in Portland.
01:55 They have no leverage.
01:57 They put themselves in this spot.
01:59 The NBA did everything they could.
02:01 Not one team is being reported to be interested in Damian Lillard other than Miami.
02:06 And it's Miami's fault.
02:09 They why they why I've had enough.
02:14 I've had enough.
