    From NBA GameTime:

    NOTABLE: Lillard has matched Geoff Petrie's franchise record for most consecutive 20-point performances to begin a season (3). He will look to claim sole possession of this record in Monday's meeting with Dallas. ... With the win, the Blazers snapped a four game losing streak against Houston."

    Crazy that Drexler never did that.

    You want crazy? He's the first rookie to score 20 in each of his first three games since Grant Hill

    EDIT:

    According to Chris Haynes' twitter only Damian and Oscar robertson started their first three games with 20+ points and 7+ assists.

    Dame is the best rookie in a long while and we got him for Joel and Dante Cunningham.

    If only we had gotten selected Faried or acquired Hibbert over the summer.

    Rebounding and interior presence is all we need to complete this team. We're honestly that close.

    JJ Hickson is rebounding really well this season.

    "Dame ties a record" or "Dame breaks a record" will soon be a broken record

    21/9/47%/37%/91% after three games.

    Those kind of stats will get him in the All Star game this year if he can keep it up. And really, other than getting tired, I haven't seen a lot of reason why he can't. You take away his passing, and he'll rain threes. Take away that, and you given him his drive. Take aways that and you are leaving Batum or Matthews wide open, or they'll dump it into Aldridge for an easy bucket.
