Man I'm just ready to know what direction we're going in and stick with it. I love Dame and I've been on the side of wanting to trade our youth to contend now, but also support our moves so far since it really didn't seem like any difference makers were reasonably available.

If Dame wants out because we waited too long to make a swing for the fences (thanks Olshey), I get it. I personally think that we'll retool by trading Ant and Dame will start the season as a Blazer, but if we're not looking good through the first 15-20 games or so, he'll ask out.

I don't see Dame winning it the team he's going to has got to give up core pieces, so if he can't win, he better stays in Portland and be the good guy
