Remember when Dame talked about how loyal he was when other players were demanding trades? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

I like Dame and feel like if he had gone about this better he would’ve came out with minimal hate but waiting until after the grant deal, only wanting to be dealt to Miami, and now threatening to sit out is a bit much.

Like he’s earned a bit of choice in wanting to go to a contender with all he’s done for Portland but if you force yourself out this kind of way you burn up your goodwill pretty quick

Wow... Dame clowning PG, aged like milk...

Great way to ruin your reputation as a player 😐

Even Kevin Durant had more than 1 team on his list when he asked for a trade. You can't take a contract offer like Portland gave, and then demand to go to one place, and have fans be sympathetic for you

Kyrie is the only person to actually sit out and give up money. I’d like to see how long it takes before Dame reports when he loses out on 50 mil. All talk to try and force a trade to Miami.

Remember that time I returned your lawn mower? Now it's time for you to do ME a favour.

Kyrie level entitlement if true.

I understand why he requested for a trade but I feel that Dame should have handled this better.

He wouldn’t be able to report if he’s traded either

Who would've though that Dame would make a bigger fuss than Durant with his demands? Sheesh...

Is this a reliable source?

As a Philly fan, I was hoping there was a chance we land him (especially if we could do it without giving up Maxey).

Seeing this report, I'm glad we didn't get him because he's a punk-ass malcontent.

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.
