Damian Lillard

We appreciate the comments and the pic, especially from rival fans.

Now, if Batum would improve just a bit more, and Lillard improves next year (which I'm sure he will), AND we draft and use our cap space intelligently, we might just have a team!

 

Thanks mamba. Good game. Kobe was phenomenal start to finish.

 

Dame makes me breath a little easier for the future. Thank God we have a budding elite PG with an elite mentality.

 

Big.

Sky.

 

Nothing.

But.

Blue.

Skies.

That last highlight... how that wasn't a foul, I'll never know.

Seriously though, half those drives by Dame were hacks on the Lakers and nothing was called. God I hate the NBA sometimes.

 

0 FTAs. Nash, Blake, and Kobe combined for 2 fouls

 

Wow that last highlight was amazing. We have a special player amidst us guys.

 

he says "hey!" when he drives and gets fouled, maybe he needs a new word

 

He should say "rigged."

 

all the stars yell out when they get fouled

 

Instead of yelling "WTF" at the refs when he gets clobbered, he should just yell "WWF!"

 

Riiiight, suuuuure they did.

 

roy used to say hey all the time too.

 

Used to say "and 1" everytime he drove ot the basket too.

 

I used to think lillard was our clutch man at the end of games. I'm starting to lean towards Matthews being that guy. I'm sure lillard will take over that reign next season though.

 

If you want to talk about anything involving the Rookie Wall, I think this is it. He's scouted way harder, and his long-distance clutch-time shooting has taken a nosedive. At the same time, however, he's more bold about driving the lane in crunch time and it has been paying off recently.

So yeah, he's hitting the wall, but it's in such a subtle fashion we barely notice, *AND* he's started working around it because he's self-aware and striving to improve. So impressed with his game.

 

Oh don't get me wrong caravan, lillard is our franchise. I was just talking about this season only. I'm so excited to see how lillard comes out next season. I think he will be even better than we ever imagined.
