    I’m on an iPhone 10 and it works great on my site. Not sure if it’s a browser setting or what. This is what I see when holding my finger down on the image

    the Miami offer must have really sucked, if it took Portland this long and this was all they could get

    All star drafts matter.




    And there's enough FAs left on the market where Milwaukee should get their pick of the litter.

    I don’t see a real pathway to the Lakers getting in the mix for Jrue. He makes $36 million, DLo’s salary isn’t close to matching.

    I understand Portland needed to trade Dame, but this is a terrible return. They needed to get one very good young piece. Instead, the best player in the deal they immediately want to flip and now they have a really awful big man in Ayton. I don’t like PHX getting better with the subtraction of the Big Softy, but then again, Nurkic isn’t very dependable.

    Miami played hardball and lost.

    I still don’t really like this for the Blazers though.

    everything including tampering initially to make the trade demand to their team happen.

    them complaining about tampering is RICH. like..."not sure if serious" rich.

    i like it better than taking less from the heat. sends a message, too.

    let's just all be thankful that lillard is out of the west. guy has been a lakers killer (literally considering he ended nash's career) since his rookie year

    don't have to worry about him dropping 40+ on us a few times a year

    DLO and Rui get you to 33 million and you throw in hood-shifoni and it matches. Steep price to pay but it would be tempting: you get you're wing stopper and not only do you get one but one of the best in the league and a dude who still can win you a playoff game on offense. Him and Reaves together man you're talking about best backcourt in the league stuff now

    I think if you're Portland you'd be interested in Rui as a nice add young asset to the frontcourt.

    Yeah. Heat complaining of tampering is laughable.

    Also, it’s not that I thought they should’ve taken the Heat deal but that the trade still doesn’t seem like much for him. I guess we will see.

    I like Jrue but I think we are set. Don’t see us making a move given the price tag.

    After “Open in Tab Group” what does that give you toward putting the gif on this site? What’s the next step?

    I get Share, Save to Photos or Copy Link. And already tried the Copy Link which didn’t work when pasted. If I go to Share the options become Copy Link again and 4 others that would have nothing to do with getting it here to display.
