Idk if Detroit would pull the trigger on a deal like that. Good as Dame is we don’t have the pieces together to put around him and he doesn’t fit our timeline. He surely wants to go to a contender


Sixers are the spot, they're easily the best fit for him. Everything else is in place, just need a guard like him to step him.

The thought of Embiid & Lillard playing together, with Tobias Harris as the true #3 option. Oh my god.... :hail:

Which should come as no surprise....considering this is all we've been hearing for quite a while now lol.

Dame wants out of Portland, everyone knows it. It's just a matter of when he will publicly request that trade.



Portland really fumbled the bag with Dame’s career. What a poorly managed franchise. Same franchise that passed on both MJ and KD lol

Timelines can change in an instant. Look at the Lakers. Dogshit for years then LeBron saved them. Or the Nets and Clippers.

If Detroit feels they jump back into contention then have to make that move if Lillard is willing to go there. Hes probably not but LeBron was deadset on the Knicks until his wife smacked him upside the head.

We’d have to somehow be able to acquire Dame without giving up Grant, Bey, or Stewart.

Maybe #1 overall pick, Hayes, Plumlee and a 2 future 1sts gets it done but the salaries probably don’t work out.

We’d need to acquire another big or wing to go all in as well. I just don’t think we have the pieces

Yeah uh, but Dame isn't prime LeBron and never will be lol.

LeBron can literally turn any team around and carry any team to a Finals. As great as Dame is, he can't do that.

Simmons ain't getting it done unless Dame says Philly only and they flip Simmons inmediately and trade CJ as well to kickstart the rebuild.

do you think Dame can elevate a team like CP3? something close to that? im curious to see but i dont think he would go to a shit team like the Pistons. otherwise he would just stay in Portland

Sixers can easily get it done with a package around Simmons. They've got the pieces to get Dame for the right price without question lol.

How many other teams are offering an All-Star who isn't even 25 yet in their package for Dame? Don't worry, i'll wait.
