βDamian Lillard said if a deal couldnβt be worked out with the Heat, he would prefer to rescind his trade request and return to the Trail Blazers. Croninβs response to the seven time All-star was that there was no coming back. Lillard was shockedβ via Chris Haynes
I canβtβ¦
Dame coming to watch Portland just shows how much love heβs still got for this team
I donβt know a single player who would come watch this team on his off day especially after what went down this summer
In June of 2012, Portland got blessed with this small town college kid from Weber State University in Utah. Growing up in Oakland, he wasnβt recruited heavily at all and because of that he had the biggest chip on his shoulder Iβve ever seen from a rookie. He immediately fit rightβ¦
9 years together, both from mid major schools looking to make a name for themselves in this league and look how long they lasted. Iβve grown up watching this duo and am deeply saddened that it didnβt work out.
Gonna miss you in RipCity
@CJMcCollum
21 out of the Blazers 28 wins have came in the clutch this year.... that is madness and just shows how ridiculous
@Dame_Lillard
has been in the clutch this year
Highest scoring backcourts in the NBA this season:
1. Dame and Ant (28 and 24 PPG)
2. Mitchell and Garland (29 & 21 PPG)
3. Steph and Klay (30 and 19 PPG)
4. Luka and Dinwiddie (33 and 16 PPG)
5. Trae and Murray (27 and 21 PPG)
Portland boys on top
Imagine having these stats and getting 3rd team all NBA:
32 PPG (Career High)
7.3 APG
4.8 RPG
46% FG% (Career High)
37% 3p%
64% TS% (Career High)
57% 2p% (Career High)
When will the disrespect stop
@Dame_Lillard
Hurts my soul watching Dame be hurt like this man. He didnβt deserve any of this and clearly wanted to win in Portland
Jody, Olshey, Kolde, and Cronin are ALL at fault for this. What a damn shame
@TheNBACentral
Dame has been to the playoffs in 8/11 seasons lmfao. One of those missed seasons was also due to him getting surgery. Just another guy who has no idea what heβs talking about
Dame and Ant tonightπ₯
60 PTS
13 AST
9 RBS
21/33 FG 64%
11/19 3PT 58%
Only 35 mins each
Most underrated backcourt in the NBA and have the Blazers rolling at 4-0
Pretty crazy, but last night
@AnferneeSimons
and
@bosnianbeast27
become the first Blazers duo that didnβt feature Dame or CJ to score 30 points in the same game since 2002π³
Dame has carried Portland 8 straight years to the playoffs, which leads the NBA & throughout his career this is what he has played with:
1- All Star (2012-15)
0- MVPβs
0- COYβs
0- DPOYβs
1- All NBA Teammate
0- All Defensive NBA
0- 6th MOTYβs
Give me this man some more respect
I donβt think some people understand how effin ridiculous it is to score 71 points off 58% shooting from the field and 60% from 3
WHAT A NIGHT FROM DOLLA
Thank you
@Dame_Lillard
for everything youβve done for this franchise. Iβll forever remember your impact on this team and will support you for the rest of your career
Itβs been a ride Mr Letter O
βI just love to play. Iβm not ready to not play. Weβve pretty much fallen out of the race for the 10th spot if you look at it truthfully. I love to play & I havenβt been ready to give that up. But there does come a point where that game of chess becomes a realityβ - Dame
Painπ
Happy 33rd birthday to the heart and soul of this city and someone Portland will never forget no matter what
Rip City appreciates you more than youβll ever know Mr. letter OβοΈ
Portland is the only team in the league with 3 players averaging above 20+ points a game this seasonπ₯would be a franchise record as well if this sustains all year
Man Iβm so sad Nas is gone. I really wish things wouldβve panned out and he couldβve stayed healthy. Wouldβve been a great young wing to build this core with, but I wish him nothing but good health and hope he kills it in Phoenix
Carmelo Anthony played in 50 games for the Blazers this season and averaged 15.6 ppg & 6.3 rpg off 43/37/84 shooting numbers. Also shot an impressive 51% from 3 from the corner this year too. Pretty impressive season for Meloπ₯
Should the Blazers bring him back next season?
Portland has had the 9th toughest schedule in the NBA through 11 games this season, theyβre 8-3, and are 2nd in the West with multiple key guys missing games.
Kudos to Chauncey man, heβs coaching his ass off
Dame has got to be the most mentally tough dude Iβve ever seen in my life. The shit heβs had to go through this past year is insane and the way he carries himself youβd never know somethings wrong
Praying for you and your family
@Dame_Lillard
βI could never be replaced, no sooner than later. An arrow pointed at who assumed it was greater. Amazing what I get in return for this labor. I continue leaving trails but it wonβt be for the Blazers. To the fans man I love you unconditionalβ
WOW man, Iβm actually so sadβ¦
Scary thing is yet again, the Blazers have an all NBA defensive guard on the bench who hasnβt even played yet. GP2 could unlock this team to a height we havenβt seen before especially defensively
Still canβt believe this squad right here won two games on Denverβs home court including that classic game 7 in 2019
Chemistry on that team was unmatched
Iβm so ready for this, best case possible for Dame. Another small market team to root forβ€οΈ whereβs all the Bucks fans at? Need some new followers
Portland being ranked 10th in the newest power rankings by BR is a jokeπ2nd in the West with Dame missing 5 games so far and they have had the 4th hardest schedule in the NBA too
Do better
@AndrewDBailey
Portlands young core is one of the best in the league already and the full rebuild hasnβt even started
βͺοΈScoot -19 years old
βͺοΈShaedon -20 years old
βͺοΈAnfernee -24 years old
βͺοΈAyton -25 years old
Just need to add a young elite wing to the core and theyβre set
