http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/15491511/lillard-leadership-makes-portland-winner Great article on Dame's leadership.
Some would say his leadership is Curry-esque. He's pulling a Curry. His leadership is reminiscent of a young Curry.
Seriously though, I LOVE that we have Kevin Arnovitz following our team around, showering us with positive publicity.
There's an ESPN writer assigned to every team in the playoffs. Arnovitz is one of the good writers, so we lucked out.
We'd all rather have Durant, Lebron, Horford, but if Howard is the best player they can bring in and he buys in, I'd do it.
Ill take a washed up D12 as my starting center. In a heartbeat. Gimme 3.5 blks/12 pts and 10 rebounds.
Oh man.... this article is fucking hilarious. ""He says, 'Waterlito, I need a ride to the gym,'" Lillard remembers."
"When told that it's fairly unusual for a player of Lillard's stature to pay that kind of attention to a rookie 14th man, that it's probably even more unusual for a 14th man to feel as if he has the privilege of interrupting the team's franchise player on a blackout day, much less ask for taxi service, Lillard shrugs. "I don't know what other people do." How can you not love this team? How can you not love Dame?
Damn. That was a fine article. How could we go an entire year without hearing about the bamboo/water thing? Our locals are slacking.
LOL Nailed it. It seems like the TV talking shills are incapable of saying anything positive about Dame without at the very least inferring it's almost as good as Curry. As if that's the compliment.
Holy shit I got goosebumps reading that. Excuse me while I pinch myself, cause I might just be dreaming this.
