    Terry was actually hired for LMA and not Dame. So Terry is going to finally get to coach another superstar forward.

    There has been no coach who has ever gotten more from Lillard or used him better. I agree with HCP; he's going to be fantastic for Dame.

    That's right. Because of his experience with Dirk on that championship team. LMA was closer to Dirk in play style than the Freak, tho. Nobody is playing the GF as a pick and pop target.

    best Blazers regular season with Lillard was 54 wins. Dame's sophomore year with LaMarcus Aldridge.

    The Bucks won 58 games last year. #1 seed in Eastern Conference. Lillard is going to a team that already has the goods. If everything pans out.. Milwaukee could become an OMG incredible show to watch. The league hasn't seen a 70 win program for awhile.

    yuuup, Jordan's Bulls did it, and the Dubs set a new record losing only 9 games. Not saying a 70 win Bucks team will happen. It's nearly impossible. But it sure would look cool.

    I like the Road Trippin podcast reaction to Dame trade. Frye, Jefferson and a hottie. Start it at 13:08 and let it roll for a bit.
