    Yep. It's still Walton, then Clyde. But right now, Dame is a SOLID #3.

    Nope. Dame has eclipsed both. Walton didn’t have a long enough time in Portland. Clyde was incredible, but he never delivered the goods like Dame has. Two walk-off series winners is the stuff of legends. Clyde’s also become a Houston shill and never had the dedication to improving like Dame has. It’s Lillard all the way for me.

    Walton has the ring but his career here was so short...
    Clyde had a lot of years here but arguably better talent around him than what Dames had. More playoff success so far (But not TWO series walk offs). Clyde is hardly a trailblazer at this point though, he wants nothing to do with us.
    Dames still in the middle of it, we could have 5-6+ more years of him. If he continues to handle himself both in game and off the court the way he has. He will be the best Blazer ever, and it wont be close.

    Just like the Thunder, we may have lost the season series against them, but all games were close. The Spurts took advantage of there youth and inexperience in the playoffs, but dont have the talent. I think we have the talent (plus Dame is the best player out of everyone on the court) and think we can beat there inexperience. Admittedly, it will take Stotts coaching an excellent series, but I really think we can. Believe baby! Lets go Blazers!

    Im now with the belief that Dame trumps BRoy, Clyde, and any player from 1978 onward. He still has one Blazer to overcome. One Blazer that took us to the promise land. One Blazer that was Finals MVP - one Bill Walton.

    But damn....he’s gonna get us there! After what we are witnessing, i think AD will want to play in Portland. I think LeBron may want to play in Portland. Even Carmelo will want to play here ;)

    I don't think Lillard had any dunks tonight.

    He sucks.

    There is literally no argument for any other blazer. Dame IS the best blazer to ever play.

    There is no debate.

    I think Dame has arrived nationally ... finally. Business like. A great leader. Always positive. Didn't want to build his own "Super Team". ...
    After we beat the Nuggets, we will get even more famous.
    Just hope our role players show up. I would consider playing Anfernee .. for ET and Hood. I doubt Stotts will do it ... but, ...

    My agreement is based entirely upon if he uses the 77 team as a personal measuring stick. Assuming he doesn't, yes, he's recognition as the eminent blazer of all time. On the off-chance that he does, no, absolutely not, until he wins two championships there will be one player he has to catch. Once that happens, we're going to have to start looking outside ripcity for comparisons.

    At one point Drexler was the second best player in the NBA, Dame isn’t there YET but before it’s done he will have the Blazer scoring record, 3s record, and a few others. Most importantly though I believe before it’s over Dame will bring us a championship. There are all stars or borderline all stars sitting at home watching the playoffs noticing the difference between Dames pressers and RWs and seeing the chemistry/environment Dame has created and listening to how his teammates talk about him(even the ones who have been here just a couple months) and the further we make it in the playoffs the more they are gonna wanna play with Lillard.
