Be sure to tune into the NBA Playoffs on Wednesday night and be on the lookout for our very own Damian Lillard in the Atlanta studios. Dame will be live on the NBA-TV set at 6:20 PM with Vince Cellini, Dennis Scott & Patrick Ewing. Following that he'll be part of a segment with Ernie, Shaq, Kenny & Charles that will air during the TNT broadcast.
Lillard waiting in the wings on national TV ! He's T.N.T, he's dynamite (T.N.T.) and he'll win the fight (T.N.T.) he's a power load (T.N.T.) watch Dame explode !
The thing I loved about Lillard and his interview earlier today with Dennis Scott, Patrick Ewing and the host (forgetting his name) was that he feels loyalty to people that believe in him. When he wasn't recruited heavily he went to Weber State. Then he led the nation in scoring and big name schools came calling, Damian shunned them and decided to ride out his college career with Weber State because he felt loyal to them. It wouldn't surprise me if Damian felt loyalty towards us for drafting him #6 and believing he could be our PG of the future. I think it's very possible we found our franchise player who will be a Blazer for life.
Damian Lillard @Dame_Lillard - Wasn't nervous ... Just felt like I should keep movin because @shaq is two times my size lol
