    I bet Dame checks this forum from time to time and I want there to be a thread where we all say how much we LOVE him. Personally, he's my favorite player ever and I've followed the NBA for 26 years. He's a fierce competitor and he's such a pro on and off the court. I'll never forget him hitting that three to beat Houston after 14 years of us never winning a playoff series. I believe everything is possible as long as he is on our team. Thank you, Dame.

    Go Blazers

    He's legitimately my favorite player of all time. I hope he stays a Blazer for his whole career.

    We are lucky to have him. This franchise has lacked a face and leader due to injury and free agency. Other teams' fans say, "wait till he gets sick of being in Portland!" Dame is making it known that the Blazers have a heart and a future. If we don't have that outlook, we will turn into Sacramento -- North.

    Yep. Dame is my all time favorite Blazer too. And what he did tonight.... I'm still in awe. I have never driven home and the entire time I was either wooing or saying "holy shit, did I really just see that?!"

    Thank you Dame. Thank you for personifying Portland.

    That shit was more impressive than Roy's Q4. No disrespect, different stage for sure, but shit.

    I just get the feeling that a lot of superstars don't have Dame's leadership skills. Luka, Embiid, Leonard? Not even close. I mean if Dame had Leonard's injury while his team was in the conference finals, I think he would be on the bench and rehabbing on the road. I honestly think you couldn't keep him from being on that bench with his guys. I heard Kawaii skyped Lue after Game 1, but doesn't like skype or something like that...
