    I usually would say that this would be excuses in most situations, but Divorce and being away from your kids could take a toll on anyone. I think that is hugely affecting Dame. Imagine being in a house with your wife and kids every day for 10 years plus, and one day everything just changes. Hopefully he finds peace.

    Go look at Holiday's playoff stats for the 3 years he was with the Bucks. His offensive stats got worse across the board from regular season to playoffs. Yes, he is an elite perimeter defender, but in the playoffs, he was unable to get his shot and has a limited offensive game. Even when Bucks won that championship in 2021, Holiday shot terrible except for a game here and there. With Middleton being in and out, Bucks had to get an elite scorer to pair up with Giannis.

    "It's definitely lonely because I'm such a family guy. My life is my family. After games, I would come out and my whole family would be back there. My kids coming out of the playroom. My mom, my brother, my cousins lived there, you know what I mean? My best friends live in Portland. So I would come out, we would go to dinner. They might come to my house. After practice, I might go to my mom's house and just chill. That's how my life was. So, I mean, I'm fine because I'm grown. But it's definitely lonely. I'm filled up by those people." -Dame Lillard back in February. If he went to Miami, how would this change all his family and friends living in Portland? Was there some agreement they would all move out there if he were traded there? We don't know that and everything is speculation but in the same interview he acknowledged he made a big boy decision to leave his home and go compete. Yeah, the nightlife is better in Miami but is he really the guy who wants to go out to clubs every night and party with people in their 20s anymore? Again, can't be answered but to have Milwaukee trade Dame for peanuts after the season, if the Bucks, fail is ridiculous.

    Why is Dame getting a pass ? I think he needs to slender down a bit. The difference between Dame and Steph is that Steph is just as great off the ball as he is with the ball.

    Bro sometimes you have to be willing to adjust and flow . Sometimes it won’t work but you continue . What if Dame running off more screens begin to open up other parts of the team game that it actually raises the overall team . I believe Dame is a championship player . Lebron had to learn to play in the post more in Miami to open on different looks for the team and ultimately help add to his overall game. I’m not saying he should play exactly like Steph . I’m just saying just add more ball screens with him coming off angles and spots on the court he want. You can’t just ignore Dame running hard off a pin down screen with another screen coming ready to pull up off the dribble . You gotta trap or now they can fake the pass and get an easy layup. Maybe this the destination Dame grows his overall off ball offense (no Diddy)

    People gotta stop with this "He isn't happy in Milwaukee" narrative. He's always had a nonchalant lowkey persona about himself, look at when he hit the game winner on OKC, he didn't smile or celebrate with happiness like his teammates did. Dame was never a jolly, always laughing & smiling type of guy. He's said so many times in the past that if he could play with any current player, it would be Giannis. And he's said in interviews that when all this was going down, & Milwaukee popped into the picture, his agent asked him "What about Milwaukee?" And Dame okay'd it, he said he was interested in that. ESPN has always made up these narratives whenever Milwaukee has a superstar. They been trying to get Giannis out of Milwaukee since 2016, I guess they didn't learn when Giannis made Malika Andrews look dumb on TV. Lmao

On top of gaining a defensive liability at the pg position. Why is this so hard to understand. The Bucks fall is not rocket science. We just have people who see Dame as a winning player.

    I never thought dame was that guy in my personal opinion . He’s a high volume/streaky scorer, is terrible on defense , led teams that got swept multiple times or underperformed, and just seems like a “me first” kind of player. He brags a lot and keeps wanting to be mentioned amongst the elite but doesn’t have a winning background

    It's funny how people don't understand the concept of FIT in a team sport. It's about making your team as compatible as possible, than talent alone. Some players aren't compatible at all (Dwight and Gasol), some players are fairly compatible (Parker and Manu) and some are highly compatible (CP3, Griffin and Jordan). System also has a role in this.

    That's not how it works. If Dame is separated from his wife and they are going though a divorce, and the wife have custody of the kids, he can not just move the kids with him just because he make millions.
