Was Damian Lillard’s fourth quarter performance one of the best Blazers moments of all time?

    Considering it came against the Lakers, down 11 with 7 min left, and the four straight 3s?

    It's not even close to winning the championship....it's a highlight for the season but we've had lots of those....the .9 shot probably one of the most exciting of his career...the 50 in 3 qtrs....he's had some wonderful career moments but not even close to winning a championship or even winning the Western Conf finals. For some of you you weren't around for the championship...I was 23 years old when we won it

    No, not even close. It came in a regular season win against a lottery team. Typical day at the office for Dame. I'm not even sure if its his most exciting performance of the last four weeks. In the last 4 weeks, he's also dropped 50 in 29 minutes against SAC. dropped 44 in a win over GSW and dropped 40 on PHO including the buzzer beating game winner in a 15-point come from behind victory.

    He's just put numbers and highlights and big time plays all time. He is on the hunt to be the best Trail Blazer ever. He's special. He needs to lead us to a WCF.

    He's done this so often, I don't even find it surprising anymore.

    Considering the team has been around for 46 seasons, no, I’m not sure Dame’s performance last night (as terrific as it was) even cracks the Top 20. But then, these are just the ramblings of an old geezer......so take that into account.

    Nah, I get that. There were many great moments for the team through the years. Championship being #1. But individual moments where the team had basically no chance unless a special performance happened by there best player, Dame leads that category, and it ain't close. I came on as a fan during the Championship season, so I can't speak for pre that era, but I don't remember a single player in that situation, having this kind of consistency he has had when he's needed most. It's amazing, and truly magical. Clyde had much more talented teams around him, as did Walton. There were special moments by Billy Ray, Clyde, Walton, Sheed, and Brandon that were amazing as well, but Dame takes the cake. All I can say is enjoy the ride. My daughter and I surely are. Go Blazers!!
