    I'm sure there's some people on this board who agree with him.

    Dame's last three games -

    Game six against Clips - 28 points, 7 assists, 5 rebounds,

    Game one against GSW - 30 points, 5 assists, 4 steals

    Game two against GSW - 25 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 steals

    I mean...... come the fuck on.

    Skip Bayless is fading into obscurity on Fox Sports soon.

    The guy carried us in the 3rd quarter. He played all 12 minutes. He scored 17 points.

    He sat out the first few minutes of the 4th quarter, and then he never got it going again. The Warriors tightened down on him and nobody else could make a shot. I'm so sick of people heaping that loss on Dame. The guy is putting up big numbers while playing sick. Fuck the haters.

    Skip just likes to make annoying and contrarian comments to rile people up. Don't let yourself get trolled by him.

    Consistency on what? Scoring, or his shot percentage?

    Not his article. That's an article in the Oregonian that's using a clip of him on ESPN as the topic. I didn't look at who wrote the actual article.

    If he was the only person saying these things, it would probably annoy me less.

    Skip is one a bee just like the loud mouth that with him on first take. They think they know everything but know nothing. Skip think harden superstar but what harden doing now he is watching and what Dame doing he still playing now who the superstar.

    He's probably talking about his percentages.

    I wonder what he has to say about Lowry....

    Thank you for providing exactly what he said. When I tried to listen to it live I had a hard time understanding what Skip was saying. Not sure if it was because of Curry, or LeBron's dick in his mouth.

    Yes, let's give Dame more locker room material. Dame for 50 again on Saturday?

    Probably nothing, because Lowry isn't all over his TV in State Farm and Adidas commercials

    Even if he thought Damian was a superstar, I don't actually put much weight into what he says. He's a blowhard, who says shit to get ratings.

    He's worse than Screamin' A, which is hard to do.

    My first thought when I saw this was, 'Where was this clown when OKC got the crap kicked out of them by the Spurs in G1 of that series?' Durrant scored a whopping 16 pts and his All-Star buddy Westbrick added 14 in that game and yet nobody questioned their star credentials. What a load of horseshit.
