What a season from Damian Lillard:
Minutes per game - 1st in NBA
60 point games - 1st in NBA
50 point games - 1st in NBA
Points per game - 3rd in NBA
Threes made - 3rd in NBA
Assists per game - 5th in NBA
Final tally on Lillard trade: Portland gets Deandre Ayton, Robert Williams, Malcolm Brogdon, Toumani Camara, three first-round picks 2024 (Golden State, Top-4 protected), 2029 (Bucks and Celtics unprotected) and 2028 and 2030 Milwaukee pick swaps.
Damian Lillard is the greatest Blazer of all-time and the Blazers organization failing to give him a REAL chance at a title would be an inexcusable failure good night
Imagine being a billionaire and buying Twitter instead of a small radio station in a coastal town where you could spin the hits of the 80s, 90s and today
"I love Portland. I've spent 10 years with this organization and want to win a championship in Portland" - Damian Lillard, every 3 weeks
"Is Dame heading to New York?" - Lazy National Pundits
Enes Kanter has played 30 games for the Blazers so far. Has to be the least amount of games played in Portland, to most popular Blazer ratio, in team history.
Just an incredible human.
Just remembered something really funny: in January Damian Lillard went for a team record 61, scored 47+ four times, averaged 34 points, 8 assists and 5 rebounds per game and was NOT named Western Conference POM lol
Blazers season is decidedly not over. There are 58 games left. No one else feels sorry for Portland. Let's get weird with the lineups, trust in Dame and see what happens.
Justin Herbert versus Marcus Mariota and an audible named for Damian Lillard drink it in this is the closest Oregon will get to a professional football game
Without question, the most shocked I've ever been by a Blazers win. To pull that performance off in that situation is unreal. Dame has reached another level. Kobe would be proud.
If THIS is the Thunder's best punch, I'm very comfortable with the state of the series. Dame OWNS Russ, and these refs were a nightmare. See you Sunday.

Regardless of what you think of Zach Collins the basketball player his career is potentially in jeopardy, and by all accounts he's a good dude, be a decent human and maybe take the day off slandering him
Not a single Blazers fan I’ve interacted with is upset with Dame for requesting a trade, people are mad that we’ve never built a real team around him and the potential of getting a nothing burger back in return for him
Said it before, after that performance against Phoenix feels like a good time to repeat it: just want Damian Lillard's loyalty to Portland to be rewarded at some point
Bubble Blazers:
Nurk's Return
Dame Bubble MVP
Gary Trent Jr. Officially Arriving
Clutch Melo
6-2 Record
Playoff CJ w/Broken Back
Game 1 Over Lakers
Game 5 Effort
2020 has been miserable. Appreciate how cool this run was.
Read the CJ article multiple times and worked through the five stages of grief to fully appreciate he’s been a salty, sweet and surly part of our Blazers experience for nearly a decade. He’s a Rip City Legend I choose to romanticize his time in Portland.
Ben Simmons was born 1996 and went to school at LSU. There are 19 letters in "Baton Rouge Louisiana". Subtract 19 from 1996, and you get... 1977... the Blazers lone championship season. Simmons to Portland confirmed.
Turns out,
@MeyersLeonard11
