Get ya money Dame :salute:. He's not some kid with "potential" that is being paid out of illogical fear. Dude makes the franchise relevant and they go the playoffs consistently and he performs consistently and stay healthy for the most part. Outside of winning a chip, which would take more than just him, what more can you really ask for? Not to mention no one is coming to Portland, so if you get your hands on a guy of his caliber, you lock him down ASAP for as long as possible.

Why do you guys selectively read

Curry won a title as a best player on the team so what you’re saying doesn’t make sense

Why would you use the player that just cooked the nikka and swept his team as the best player as an example of what you’re trying to prove
curry won a title as the best player on one of the most well constructed rosters ever, so well put together the damn 6th man was the FMVP...:mindblown:

the damn slogan was "strength in numbers"...talk about selective :what:

if dame has that roster, he wins a title too :stopitslime:

We put small and mid-market teams in a no-win situation with this shyt.

When they draft well and develop players who end up wanting to stay, we kill em for signing them to big-money contracts (as though they had any other choice).

When they let those players walk, we call em stupid and remind them that "nobody wants to go to [city X]" (as though the front office didn't already know that).

When they try a full reset to accumulate draft picks and build for the future, we trash em for tanking.

This next round of CBA negotiations should be interesting.

In a vacuum...this is an overpay but no top FAs go to Portland

Not sure Dame is a #1 on a title team but its not easy to do a full teardown and rebuild

Portland needs better wings, a starting PF and a consistent 3rd option
This is essentially what I said and it’s sparking some hot debate in here

You can supermax Dame but fix the rest of the roster
