The biggest thing I've learned about Dame as a Bucks lifer is that getting to listen to him talk hoops is an absolute privilege
Dame the realest in the league. hope he gets a ring to top off the amazing career he's had so far.
He needs to step up, Giannis been carrying the team this year
@brovro6732 Giannis having an mvp year and they got Shai over him lol, Jokic, Giannis and then Shai is how it should be then Giannis taking the lead when Joker stop caring
@@g-money3766 the media hates Giannis because he didn’t choose one of the cities they wanted him in so he’ll never get another mvp
"I'm not confident just because I think I'm the greatest thing ever. I'm confident because I know what I put into the game." -Dame Lillard
👏
He could never think he’s the greatest ever🤣🤣🤣
It seems a lot of the nba podcast have a player, and a random white guy for some reason.
Usually, that's the player's most trusted guy to handle the pod for them.
prbably either pushing the diversity agenda or these white guys are friendly and not that vulgar as most of these players spitting hood words every now and then, so the white dudes are like the balancing pin.
Hahahaha bro u not lying 😂😂😂😂
White hand man… Can’t trust them brothers
You just made me realise 😂😂😂
Misconstrued was gon tear Trae tf up lmao
Lol that heavy tongue is fuck him right up bruh
😂😂😂😂
Trae and Dame conversing, yea yeah!
Dame is the one nba player that I can consistent count on to ruin my parlays thanks dame
Great convo, men.
Chuck is a champion taking all those jabs at him for having no ring
True
Im taking a sip of coffee everytime guy says "yall" im on my 5th cup
If Miriam Webster wasn't so short sighted that's the word she would have "ROLLED" with "Y'ALL lol 😆
I’m glad Dame is in Milwaukee
Me too, still can't believe he's on my team. Dude is amazing off and on the court
Me too and I’m born and raised here and all the hate he been getting is from ppl who don’t live here.
He’s not
@@Maxjuliann he definitely is because he chose 3 weeks before he got here. However ppl don’t understand he human and going through a divorce and not having his family around when he gets home.
Do you thiunk hes happy to be in mke?
Trading Lillard was the smartest and right thing they did .
Let Simons run the show this year and grown , He is so underrated in my opinion .
the BLAZERS should build around Simons , Scoot , Sharpe .
Yea man, build around 3 guards again, all of whom are worse than dame. It’ll go great this time 🫡
Don't know about Scoot
Like every other star in portals. Before Simmons it was dame before dame it was LA before LA it was Zach before Zach it was Rasheed before him it was you get it? They never learn to development those all could have been connecting pieces
Simons is having some of the same defensive struggles dame had, scoot cant shoot and turns the ball over a lot, sharpe is the future.
@@TheTinyTimmyTimTimthese “trailblazers” really suck a blazing new trails 😂😂😂
Drazen Petrovic's ghost...rip dude, would've been an all-time great shooter
The amount of Trae hate is honestly pretty wild. Statistically he's not much worse than Luka, and he's led his team just as far in the playoffs, and did it sooner than Luka did too
Because he’s no where near as efficient when you say he’s not much worse he actually is in that area
Ntm he's lead his team further into the playoffs
@@adriansmith2295No he hasn’t, they’ve both made it to the conference finals
@@boubacardiallo5945 Boss check both their series they played Trae lead the hawks deeper in the series taking them to a game 6 while Luka was gone in game 5
@@rodalbertpierrepaul6549 that's what casuals think, but when you look at their actual stats their career true shooting % are:
Luka - 58.6%
Trae - 58.1%
Damian and Trae❤
Steph, Klay, Ray, Reggie, Bird, Korver, Dame, Nash
This a lot of range in this video🎯
I love Trae … but “misconcepted”?😂😂😂😂.. what in the Oklahoma education lmaaooo
😂😂😂 misconnn misconnncepted 😅
Lmfaooooo
bro i was like “misconstrued.. misconstrued.. misconcepteddd wtf is that” 😭
@@hoodie.ty_3171 man dame looked like wtf he wanted to laugh is ass off
Funniest shit ever 😂 Even Bogi or Jokic would have been like “wtf is miconcepted brate”
I’m a bucks fan. I just believe in Dame.
We get a ring this year .
Wow 🤣🤣🤣. Sorry to burst your Bubble but the bucks not coming in out the east
Ice Trae take the hint. Dame got a watch to match his Dame Time celebration. It would be nice to have a jacket for your ice-cold celebration. A nice spring jacket would be nice.
Kellen McCoy was tough at Northern Oklahoma CC!! saw him hoop when i was a freshman
Dame is such a wise mind and I love love him! ❤
My two favorite pgs 🏀
Can’t forget about Kyle korver 😮💨
That "is there a year" comment should've been 2020. Blazers post-Ariza trade were nuts and would've skyrocketed up.
Dame will be good soon I can feel it
Love dame and ice
16:39 Damn this backfired quick 😂
Trae shy af man haha he’ll get used to it. We see his energy on the court, need to bring that to the podcast.
We built this stuff
I'm a professional conclusionist
😂😂😂
30:42 Dame on Giannias’s Dominance
Dame speaking facts
Dame dolla the man humble beast
Dame don’t need a ring. Or the hall he a legend already for what he’s done but more so for how he’s done it. He was your favorite hoopers favorite hooper for awhile. Him and Gianni’s are guaranteed one at least. Once they really figure it out and get another star it’s over
Guaranteed is crazy
@@jamesonedwardsii4943 I really believe that. They both too good, and too complimentary to not. And that’s just them. If they get someone else too? It’s a wrap.
@@jamesonedwardsii4943 for example. When the suns get bounced in the first round, it’s in the realm of possibility they get one of those 3. Or a situation like that.
Get off your knees 🤢….dame definitely needs a ring to be consider a great! That’s why they all play
@@Beat__The__Odds so nobody is a great player unless you win a championship that’s what you’re saying for the record? Foh with that foolishness
I can shoot far out too and dame is right. Its mostly form and legs
the disrespect shown to Kyle Korver is just unreal
Bro said I’ve done it to people 😂 was not phased by the defense
Dame time ⌚️
Is the video a little too dark to anyone else?
Dame 😍😘
Reggie Miller would have had a championship with the Pacers if Michael Jordan had retired earlier
They weren’t beating the jazz
Can say the same thing about Dame in Portland if Steph didnt exist. That's part of the luck that they were talking about.
23:44 This Part!
I gotta go Steph, Peja, Dirk, Klay, Dame, Miller.
Glen Rice on my list
Nobody’s gonna say he’s the loudest in the room but what he does on the court speaks volumes
“SOME DUDES PLAYED IN THE ERA W/ M.J. , and that’s why they didn’t win.”-
Nothing more true.
I grew up in Seattle, my first “favorite players”- naturally are Gary Payton and Shawn kemp.
I remember them literally almost beating the bulls in the finals.
But also that feeling that I had, deep down , KNOWING - that MJ was as going to win.
I was introduced to basketball as a kid while MJ was playing.
I remember how nonchalantly he retires after a 3 peat to do weird stuff like play baseball. Then come back- and do it again.
He was LITERALLY BORED. So he did something else to come back and 3 peat AGAIN.
So my point is - all I’ve ever known of MJ is that whatever he wanted to do in basketball- he would absolutely do.
I never saw him fail at it that’s for sure. So just knowing the Sonics weren’t going to win, was a strange feeling when they had such a great year.
100% Sonics win that year if MJ didn’t play.
Tell me otherwise. Same with damn near every team MJ played in the finals.
Funny to hear from my current favorite PG- when the Sonics were no more, I drifted to Portland naturally. Always been a lillard fan.
Moved to idaho years later, got into the bucks.(pretty easy to do when Portland wasn’t really a contender)
Nothing crazier than waking up one day to find out this blazer lifer, just got traded to the bucks.
I absolutely cannot wait to see what the bucks can do if not this year, then next. Because dame and Giannis both got that championship level heart, passion, humility and respect for the game, I want nothing more than to see dame get that ring.
Whether he does it- or doesn’t. He’s still absolutely a top 75 pg of all time. The way he sees the game is just incredible to watch.

15:51 ✨🧠✨💪
🐐
Kyle Korver would be on my all time 3 point contest. Its pretty much all he did and he had a long career even made an allstar team. No other player that was only known as a shooter accomplished that. JJ is right there to and overall is a better player than korver but if we are just talking snipers Korver is it.
To many damn Podcasts 🥴🤯😳. To may of the Same Questions
Not having James Harden in the All-Time 3pt contest is blasphemy. The guy is top 3 and has the chance to be top 2 by the end of the season.
Bffr
Damian Lillard should move to the Golden State Warriors
Sounds good but I doubt it’ll ever happen unfortunately
i don't think so!
O high playa
Hes Only naming top 3 point shooters
Ring culture started when LeBron showed up on the scene and threatened the old heads' myth of MJ.
Everyone don’t need a podcast….
Don't need to either. You can just block the channel.
Everyone could have one and it wouldn’t affect you if you didn’t listen and minded your business
No Korver or Reddick I see
Curry and Giannas was all hype no wins
How about kyle korver
It is funny how the NBA builds up todays players talking about 3pt records. Craig Hodges hit 21 of 24 3pt shot in a round and nobody to this day has done that since and they say nothing!!!!
Dame Book Young Luka , FAV PLAYERS
I already know dame gonna be capping talking about ring culture when he joined a super max team
I would love to see Russell Westbrook on this team….. If he came off the bench the Bucks would be a scary team…
Trae too boring to Host a podcast. Seems very forced
He is terrible and unnatural. Seems nervous too. 😂 by far the worst NBA podcast.
I think the Duncan Robinson podcast was better.
Dame shooting 7-21 every 2 games and 3-13 for three for the majority of the year while defensively not good, at least he has time to be on podcasts
Casual thoughts. Yeah he slumping right now offensively but look at his November and December game logs. And he's got the same defensive rating this season as Giannis, so keep that ignorance coming 🤣
Giannis “ let dame be dame”. Giannis you gotta let Dame run the offense a lot more. You gotta sacrifice, you can still dominate Giannis.
Agreed
What are yall watching. Giannis is trying to and that leads to them losing😭😭😭 dame playing terrible and thats on him and his personal issues off the court. Portland fans trying to blame Giannis 😭
Giannis gone get his regardless as we see this man dame getting cooked on defense and not even giving all star production on offense
@@wordonthestreetpodcast5472 He’s “trying to” doesn’t equate to letting Dame run the offense “a lot more”. Get it? Dame isn’t a catch and shoot player, he’s a rhythm player. “Giannis gone get his regardless”
So I’ve watched every game. We have a lot of dame running the offense and getting blown out. Then we have a lot of giannis running the offense and winning.
Giannis knows the plays and system better I think. A lot of costly mistakes from dame when he facilitates. Sometimes he’s crazy good in that department, but with giannis it’s no sometimes. It’s all the time every game.
Tre just needs to start wearing hats and give up on that hair already…..
Look at Steph's sons, man, so inspirational.
Bruh he older than curry, dame been a dawg don't get it confused
@@Gow090I think he was talking about trae
@@javonsmith147 thank you big dawg for clafying that for me cz I was tripping just now
@@Gow090 Curry is older man please do your homework ...But yeah he's dawg
Dame has multiple 50pt games on the warriors 😂
💨🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪😎👍
Great guest……terrible hosts. Trae is so UN-natural at talking. 😂
So why are you watching?
@@boondockbwoy14 making an observation as I was watching. You don’t make observations while you watch movies, listen to music, watch tv, read a book?
Lmfao KD was hurt for most of the series? Dude KD played in no games that series. Dame really got up here and lied 🤣🤣🤣
What is the white guys accent?
You talkin bout PODCASTS? After the season the Hawks are having, you over here talkin on a PODCAST? Cmon Ice… we talkin bout a POD CAST. Not even games, a PODCAST?!? Shameful stuff man
Steph Curry’s Step kids be like 😂
🤙🫡🙌
80s were trash basketball, get over it 😅 they helped grew the game, kudos for that but you can't take them and drop em in this era
!!¡
No Larry bird. That's why these guys ain't winning a ring
Tf does that have to do with it??😅
Deydn
Trae I love ya bro but you sound like you got the flu or sum nasal problem idk maybe it’s just me 🤣
Stop comparing me to Steph steph wack
cap he nrver started shooting from deep until steph
You definitely wasn’t watching
Lillard became a lame somehow.
Steph should've been In the 3 point contest. Why wouldn't he be? Oh, because his ego couldn't take a chance against dame time. He vs. A girl to win. Y ? Is he scared of the guys or what?
Dame is so overrated
I make them Dash like Dame!
No. Dame is just having a struggle adjusting to all this. Imagine riding a bike the same way for 11 years then being told you’re doing it wrong. How long does to take to adjust 11 years of solidified style to something very unfamiliar?
Everything is different for him.
The thing about Milwaukee is there’s no positive press. It’s all negative. Win a game-you should’ve won by more. Lose a game, you’re trash.
That’s a lot to deal with in addition to the family turmoil and life changes for him as well as the system changes on the court.
Totally agree @@elizaschaeffer34
@@elizaschaeffer34Youre a smart fan. Its a damn shame it feels like most MKE fanw are rabid and want to raise pitchforks against the man. Shit pisses someone like me off knowing that now more than ever he needs his home crowd to be behind him unequivovally
@@elizaschaeffer34 he doesn’t play defense. He never has and never will. And the bucks as a result are a horrible defensive team.He’s a great guy but you can’t win with dame unfortunately. The argument about adjusting doesn’t make any sense because we have seen teams like the Celtics who brought in new pieces and have great chemistry.
However, I won’t hold dame accountable for the horrible moves by the bucks front office.
And when I say overrated, I’m not saying that he is not a great player obviously. It’s a matter of there’s a huge dropoff between him and other elite guards in the nba
Trae young is the perfect example of why every ball player can’t be a podcast host..bro stinks
So why you watching
@@adriansmith2295for dame wtf lol dumass question
@@17sreesanth For Dame? ..man that don't matter at all, whether you like it or not it's Trae's podcast so you be watching him so don't complain or just don't watch plain and simple boss
@@adriansmith2295 oh god Adrian
Damn time is top 75, all star starter and despite he is 139th in 3 point shooting % he still compete in 3 point shootout today, VERY OVERRATED AND BALLHOG PLAYER. Grayson Allen and Norman Powell deserve more than him,
Not accurate. One down year for dame doesn’t mean overrated.
Ballhog
@@elizaschaeffer34he always been overrated
Kyrie better
@@Stunt877 @atzflores464 there'll always be people like you , lol keep being you i guess. every legendary player has people like you on their ass
