Is Dame another Kobe / CP3 type of "leader"

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Dame is hyperfocused, both like Kobe and CP3.

Is he in the same "class" of both these players. Both had problems getting along with certain, fragile ego teammates.

 

[Chrionex]

Except for the insufferable douche bag part, yes.

 

[Scalma]

Nah. It seems like everyone loves dame, except for one person. And that one person had problems with almost everyone else.

 

[julius]

wait, are there rumors of Kobe and Chris Paul being drunks too?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

He's gotta do it on both ends of the court like CP3 amd Kobe.

He could be though.

Oh please, Kobe might be the most overrated defender I've ever seen.

 

[Darkwebs]

As long as Lillard is not doing it from both ends through force in Colorado like Kobe did, he'll be fine.

is the pope Catholic? Does a bear shit in the woods? Hell yeah. Dame has an assassins heart and a choir boy's face. So he works on the D a little. Soon enough he'll get the calls like Lobe and CP3

 

[rasheedfan2005]

He's like kobe except he doesnt rape, ball hog, play for a shit team, or have a weird shaped head.

 

[magnifier661]

Dude I've been saying this since he got here. He's got the swag, the killer eye, the "it" factor. He can become one of the best in the game if he stays the pace.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

But he drinks like a fish!

 

[OneLifeToLive]

Damian is his own man.

I love Dame and I use to think that but that last 3 months and def into the playoffs really made me back off that type of statement..

He was terrible from Feb-playoffs

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Lillard is going to go in full Iverson mode this next season.

I question the physical part of it all but let's see how he responds.

If he was tired the past two years by years end with help, where does that leave him with this lottery bound team?

He's gonna be fine. Especially with a more athletic core

Hopefully he will shoot better from the field

 

[Drttimmy]

Oh please, Kobe might be the most overrated defender I've ever seen.

Thank you. You'd see less hand contact watching corners play press coverage inside the 5 yard line, than what Kobe would display whenever he'd lock someone up. Shaq bulldozing in the key was frustrating, but watching Kobe "D" up was brutalizing.

 

[Minstrel]

Lillard is going to go in full Iverson mode this next season.

I'd prefer he went full Steph Curry.

 

[riverman]

He's giving both those guys a run for their money in the shoe sales department. Helps that he has a marketing degree and instantly put it to use. I think Dame is probably smarter than both of those guys and more of a team player than Kobe and less of a complete pt guard than CP3

 

[Tunchi]

Lillard really scared the shit out of me the way he was playing the last few months of the season.

Till this day I was pretty certain that made Lma really question Lillard's ability which led him to bail on us. Slump is one thing and it happens to everybody but man he was pretty consistently bad that last few months.

Hopefully it was nothing and he's fine

I don't listen to Portland sports talk radio, but today I tuned into Canzano to hear the reaction from the weekend news. He brought up something that I don't think I've read or heard mentioned before, questioning why never hear from Lillard's teammates that he's a great teammate? I'm not sure if that's entirely accurate, but nothing is coming to mind refuting it either. I'm sure they're out there, but it made me pause.

Give me a fucking break dude. If anything.... Dame's ability to be marketable, able to steal his limelight and killer instinct made "who" jealous and envious

Well Clownzano is lying to you. Batum, Matthews, Rice, and Mo Williams have said he was a good teammate.

You gotta remember Canzano HATES Lillard. For some odd reason he's never liked him and always throws shade at him. Plus it didn't help that one time on Twitter Dame was like whose Canzano?

So I really don't take anything Canzano says serious about Dame he's pretty bias there..

Most of the team slumped in unison at the end of the season. Lillard was gassed trying to do everything when nobody else could throw a basketball in the ocean. The bright thing was CJ and Leonard flipped a switch. Dame wasn't the same after Wes went down and Rolo and Batum were no shows.

I don't believe it for a second. The majority of players that have passed through Portland have praised the chemistry and locker room comraderie on the team. Canzano got dissed publicly by Dame and they are not on good terms. This is tainted sensationist journalism at it's worst.

You may question if there were multiple hacks saying the same thing. Baldy is bitter. Funny how he became best buds with LA now that he left. That cock smoker should follow him to SAS then

 

[Schilly]

Didn't Canzano hate all things blazers?

 

[PDXFonz]

Man, cut that drunk shit out. You wanna talk about players not giving it back to the fans and then perpetuate some made up bs?
