    I'm not even going humor this. No reason to get my hopes up for something that has zero chance. Probably negative percentage.

    I will give us a 5% chance because of Rob. We had ruined our reputation with the Pelicans and Magic and his huge mouth in particular saying that the pelicans did not act in good faith after our failed trade for AD. The owner had basically declared us team non grata after that. Yet Rob was able to repair that and we got AD. Also, it is a destination of preference for Dame.

    We don't need Dame. Sure, would be wonderful to have the all-star team as our roster, but we don't need to have all the stars to win it all, it would even become boring.
    I'm ok beating Lillard in the 1st round every year

    Difficult to force his way to a certain team as Lillard can't play the " I won't re-up with your team" card since he has 3 seasons left on his contract before a player option .

    And yet Paul George did that with OKC with 2 full years left on a huge contract. Also, The Clippers traded zero stars for him. Gallinari was the best player to go out in that deal though the Clips had a lot more picks to trade, high picks though they are ending up being. PG had a 1-year relationship with OKC, not like the 9 Dame has with the Blazers. I think the worst thing against us is the same division and Laker hatred.

    Yeah, SGA was really the centerpiece of that deal. Kuz has value, but not SGA level value.

    While I agree there is zero chance. That package isn't much worse than the one Houston got for Harden. :D
