Great to get a Blazer fan's perspective. I really thought he'd be a lifer, despite all the more recent rumors this season.

I think it's been a slow buildup to this and it was either Dame ripping off the band-aid or the ownership doing it. But with the way I've seen things going as an outside fan's perspective is that management would never want to make that call.

It's really puzzling to see the Grant signing and then for this trade demand to come out, cuz I'm in the same boat where I thought that meant there'd be at least another season to find the right pieces. That contract was huge though, really wish that was more of a 4yr deal on a reduced salary...

I thought Dame said he wanted Draymond to join the blazers, but obviously that didn't work out
