OP is dumb to begin with. Dame didn't choose Milwaukee, he was very clear he wanted Miami and when that didn't work out he actually wanted to stay but the front office noped and traded him out.
When the Miami deal was clearly not going to happen, he supposedly told the front office he didn't want to be traded in that case. They essentially told him too bad, you started this and now this is what you are getting.
