I don't care how bad he's shooting, I don't care what his shooting percentage is for the night, I will always feel comfortable with Dame taking the last shot.
He thought the refs were going to bail him out. Lesson learned. You can't expect the refs to bail you out with the game on the line.
It's funny, people were always saying "If his shot isn't falling, get to the line" and now he was getting to the line when it wasn't falling, and they say he still stinks. I never doubted this game... what a gutsy effort!!
I wish I could hear the Wheels call on this one.... But sorry that Detriot's 17 fans went home disappointed....

It was a thing of beauty. I love wheels. He gets me so amped up since I can't see it, I feel like I miss nothing.
Exactly. when he was struggling earlier and not getting the calls, they kept telling him to go after it... now he does and for some it still isn't good enough.
Rice's call on the replay makes no sense... Lillard never lost control, and it sure didn't look like he "tossed it up."
I love how the Blazers celebrate like they just won a preseason game. This team is dope. They know how good they are.
THat detroit feed is awesome. The groan is so loud! I still laugh when I almost see that ball go in for Detroit.. It'd just be the NBA if the clock never started and somehow that counted.
Yeah... I've watched it a couple times and it looks like Lillard was in control the whole time. But that shot and pose is stuff of legends. I think we'll remember that one for a long time.
To be fair, Rice is usually hammered by the midway of the 3rd, and they were asking him to call overtime.
Total confidence! They are the team to beat. Why you think Dallas celebrated so loudly? They knew that was their best win of the season
