    Highlights:

    LMA is better known that Lillard- and LMA isn't a star

    Isn't a star because he went to Weber State and now plays in the outpost Portland

    Drexler wasn't even a star because he was in Portland

    Only star to ever play in Portland was Walton

    Lillard got the Adidas deal because Adidas is scared Rose will never recover and they want someone with the same color scheme they can try to make into a star

    That wasn't the biggest shot in Blazer history because they won a title in 1977

    Only way he will ever be a star is if he makes it to the finals

    So, basically you're saying it still isn't worth watching ESPN outside of actual games?

    Yeah, what the hell was that? Lillard hits the most memorable playoff shot since Ray Allen last year, and Kornheiser takes a dump all over Lillard, the Blazers, and the city of Portland. Who does he think he is ... Skip Bayless?

    Wilbon was sticking up for all things Portland. Kornheiser is a DC guy who I'm guessing hasn't been to Portland since the Drexler teams, if even then.

    I looked him up on Wikipedia, and he's from a town on Long Island that's literally smaller than Klamath Falls.

    Around the Horn was on before that, 2 of the 4 said Paul Pierce's block was a bigger play than Lillard's shot. Just to go along with the whole avoiding ESPN programing.

    Who even likes Kornheiser? PTI is a good show but they would be so much better if they could switch hosts to like SVP and Kellerman.

    I meant he's been based in DC for eons working for the WaPo. Plus, he's a New York guy. Think of that arrogance.

    They meant Patrick Patterson's block, right? Lowry ran into him, which meant he couldn't get lift on his shot.

    Hey, Cornhole, Drexler not a star? Drexler got a Wheaties box, back when that was a big deal.

    Obviously Drexler wasn't a star until he made it to the basketball mecca that is Houston.

    Yeah, he's obviously a douche, but i just don't understand how someone from such a tiny town gets off on calling a city with 600,000 people an outpost.

    He's from Long Island. It's an extension of NYC. The town may be small, but it's still part of the NYC metro area.
