Lifelong Blazers fan- obviously bummed about Dame requesting a trade, but his position at this point is understandable. It does surprise me how he's handling it though. Sure there's going to be lots of chatter and smokescreens (and maybe this news is part of it), but is he really so shocked that there's teams other than Miami putting in trade offers to aquire a player of his caliber? Not saying the Blazers should totally ignore his wishes but this type of ultimatum of "Miami or bust" puts Portland between a rock and a hard spot.
It's pretty extreme, honestly. He wants to be traded to One team and that one has borderline no assets. Herro is a player, but that contract isn't ideal for a rebuilding team. I can't think of a comparable situation. In every case the other team either had assets or the contract was expiring and it was a take it or leave it situation.
