Chris Haynes: “In the trolling, I do believe there’s some light that’s being shed a little bit, like he’s finally like kinda cracking the door open to the possibility of leaving, which would only add probably a little bit more urgency to the front office, to make sure they’re on their toes, making...

Someone even told me which I thought was interesting, and I don’t know if I buy it 100%, but someone told me that has some knowledge of kind of what’s going on, they’re not even convinced Portland wants to trade Damian Lillard at this point, like it almost feels like they’re trying to find a way to like, maybe change his mind or it just takes a while and delay this and see if Damian’s like ‘Well, I’ll be part of this’. So a lot of weird things going on. Читать дальше...
