Zombie Lillard is playing like a bum

Yeah sure.

 

I know none of you can ever admit you’re wrong. It’s ok.

 

Honestly if the opinion wasnt laced with so much hyperbole I would be more apt to have this conversation... Dame is kind of doing what he’s usually done. He’s never been a great defender, he’s always taken plays “off” to let CJ or Nurk, or someone else do to the work. Im not sure I can think of a single star that doesnt.

You want to tell me that there are times Dame should play harder ok, of course Id buy that. There are times this year he has looked frustrated more so than in the past, I can accept that too.

Its the making it out like he’s Raymond Felton out their googling voodoo doughnut delivery rather than playing basketball that I disagree with. Dames not perfect or above criticism heck people criticize Lebron, and MJ and Kareem, but the hyperbole is the issue.

 

it's not hyperbole, it's just trolling

 

dude dame is playing with less energy than Felton. It’s not even close. If you’d actually watch him instead of just reflexively defending him like he’s your boyfriend you could easily see this. He barely moved all game. He was playing 75% at best. His effort was shameful.

dames not above criticism? Lol errr yeah, he is. See this forum and people losing their shit every single time I criticize him.

 

It’s not trolling, you’re just fanboying and you can’t handle criticism.

 

This should be an easy win, but with blazer fans lacking any semblance of energy at home, and Dame looking like he had his energy zapped by the Monstars - we could very well lose this game.

Look for Dame standing around 100% of the time when he doesn’t have the ball, not playing any help defense whatsoever, and going through the motions on defense. He is either hurt or he has given up on this team. I haven’t seen a player dogging it like this in years. His effort in the last two games against the nuggets and suns has been atrocious.

 

Something is clearly wrong with Lillard. He has been dogging it hard over the last 2-3 games. He rarely runs. His defense is appalling. His off the ball game is non-existent.

go back and look at his body language in the Suns game. He is totally dead. When he’s on the bench he’s not clapping or into the game. A few times they zoomed in on his face on the bench and it almost looked like he was going to cry - or like someone he knows died recently or something.

What’s wrong with Lillard? Is it injuries? Is he still having back problems? Is there something personal that happened to him recently? Is he just dogging it to save energy for later in the season?

Most importantly: why is nobody even pointing this out or worried?

 

He was incredible against the Suns. We wouldn't have won without him. He's 12 in the NBA in PER.

 

Incredible? Dude he had like 3 points in the first half, he had some of the worst energy I’ve ever seen an NBA player play with, and he was pouting and practically looked like he was going to cry on the bench multiple times. You are not living in reality.

it’s true he went on to score a decent amount. That doesn’t change any of the above. Finishing 9-22 from the field and having one clutch shot is not nearly enough to make up for a first half that embarrassing. We should have never been have been close to losing agains the SUNS

the low expectations for a player were giving 200 million here are astonishing. If I were the coach I would bench him until he commits to running while he’s on the floor. You can’t have a decent basketball team when your star thinks they are above running.

 

Tunchi stop it

 

Tunchi just quit

 

Transparent phony is transparent.

And phony.

 

Thats what I’m saying his hate for lillard is so obvious lmao

 

I don’t understand how this guy keeps coming back with different accounts like his hate for Lillard isn’t obvious

 

I think we know.

 

anyone can go back and watch the first quarter of last game and see I’m right. But none of you will bc none of you are capable of admitting you’re wrong. You just double down and bully.

 

Here’s Dames awesome positive and energetic body language from last game that everyone’s talking about:

rest of the photos are too big to load. I have about 10 pics of him looking like he’s about to tear up. Anyone who watches the last 5 min of the first quarter of suns game can see for themselves.

he played Uber lazy in the first. He got frustrated. And he pouted. This is not acceptable from our leader.
