    "The most exciting NBA rookies since Lebron James"? LMAO. I'm a hardcore Kool Aider, but that's wayyyyyyy over the top.

    More exciting than Chris Paul, Durant, Roy, or (love him or hate him) Blake's rookie years?

    Looking over the ROY's since LeBron, I'm not sure Lillard is a clear favorite over any of them statistically. I suppose if you factor in wins, he clearly beats Okafor, Irving and Evans. But how much of that is just playing next to an All Star.

    Yeah that was my thought. I love what Lillard is doing and really wanted him in the draft. But, I wouldn't raise him that high. He's playing great, but has a way to go before we give him Super Star status.

    I thought it was appropriate that the call him "the most exciting player" and then show him with his usual ice-blood look.

    When's he going to win us some games in the closing seconds? Until he learns to use his facial expression better, he only belongs on the cover of Nickel Magazine.

    BS. They should've changed the name of the magazine cover to DAME.

    LMAO I was thinking the same thing! I was wondering how much Allen paid for that title?

    The article is such a good read. Can't believe the high school coach said "It's either him or me" LMAO! I wonder what that coach thinks now?!
