He does alot for kids and the community
Dame is a fucking genius. I mean just listen to this guy...
He forgot to mention hunger and motivation. Without it you won't spend time grinding away when no one is watching.
Been my Favorite NBA player for a while now. Perfect role model... No SUPERTEAM for Dame. Loyalty, humility, Strong human qualities...Blazers Very lucky to have him. Any superstar of his level, would have been outta Portland years ago. Props to him for staying true to himself.
Agree
Yeah he deserves all his success
Realest person in the NBA.
And the most loyal
Na he really is bruh no one as real as him
@@waynebrown7733 thats a big Part of what makes him the realest
Easily
Literally on everything he is
This is honestly one of the best post-game interviews I've watched. Detailed and well-spoken. Not to mention dude just got 50 yet still had enough in him to take the time and think up some well-thought answers.
Facts
Watch his interview on â million dollar worth of game podcastâ youâll enjoy that if you enjoyed this interview. Lot of insight and one of his better interviews. Itâs over a hour long but check it out if you have time and havenât already.
Word. And got cold water poured down his back and didn't miss a beat.
He is like free style rapping with his answers đđđ go go go dame dolla
He will be a great coach...
He's built different. Uniquely built different. As a player and a person. The way he approach life and the game. Discipline is unmatched. Humbled and Loyal.
Big facts!!!!
Uncommon among uncommon men
How can you not love this guy
Westbrook doesn't
He's a tad arrogant.
@@felixgaminghd8600 westbrook and dame like each other's insta posts, i think theyre cool. just not him and PG lol
@@baswold7979 Damian Lillard is arrogant?
@@baswold7979 most humble dude ever and u call him arrogant? lmao
one of the greatest post-interview Iâve ever watched. dame dolla so inspirational.
Very good answers man
Dame Time is no joke. đ€
đŻ
Itâs not to be reckoned with.
On babyđŻ
He basically gave away the formula to Dame Time. But most of the time people don't wanna put in that work.
No Joke đŻđŻđȘđȘ
"I work harder. I work smarter. I love on my people harder"
đđidc what anyone says, that was a VERSE đ
FIRE !!!
Lmao
The fact that he mentioned steph as the greatest is a sign of his humility. Theres a real debate here but he recognized stephs greatness. Idk why people can't enjoy both players.
Real ones know what the name of Steph Curry means to the history of the NBA. Dame knows that he's not on that level yet, he respects Curry and his immense legacy. That's why he's my favorite player, the humble mid-court killer
@@Equinoccios you didnt watch the game bro last 5 seasons dame is shooting 37% from 30+ and steph shooting 30%. Not tryna diminish steph since he started the wave of deep shooting but dame and steph are on the same level
@@Emmanny Bro, I watch every Blazers game. Dame shot 40% from 30+ft last season. I wasn't saying Dame isn't on Curry's level right now (even though I still think Curry is a bit better). I was talking about Curry's legacy, Dame is not even close to him on that department. And it's not that I'm not a Dame fan, he's literally my favorite player in the league, but people just jump on the recency bias wave without thinking for themselves
@@Equinoccios oh boy I wonder what the comparison will be if Dame wins đ all the hardwork and not having the kind of help Stephen Curry and Lebron James had. Dame will be the goat
@@JMXMCOC omg if Dame wins a championship and gets Finals MVP... That's an automatic top 5 most important and impactful rings of all time, NO QUESTIONS ASKED. That would be on the 2011 Mavs, 2004 Pistons and 2016 Cavs, level
Damian lillard the clutches player in the nba
Been for yearsđȘđŸ
*2nd most clutch. (Tied with or just barely ahead of Murray.) Dame's more consistently reliable than Murray; and more heavily leaned on too. But doesn't reach quite the same peak when Murray's "on." Steph and KD'll have something to say in their older/wiser forms soon as well.
#1 is Jokic tho. And he really has been for years. It's in the numbers. It's in the game-winners. He's just less noticeable, perhaps bc it's less from the 3pt line, among other reasons.
And don't get it wrong, Dame IS clutch. And a joy to root for. Just imagine if those smaller market, Northwest Division teams got an even whistle. Were it to happen when they were healthy, all 3 of 'em'd knock out the Pacific teams this year.
D Human bro dame is more clutch than jokic and murray, dame has lead the league in clutch points and EFG% in the clutch for the last 8yrs, there was an espn article about it, plus dame has legit won about 15 games for portland this year with game winning shots
I agree
@@aidenfranchetto1079 This regular season Dame has better Clutch numbers (Last 5 min, 5 point or less differential), yes. And they are incredible. Absolutely.
And even those numbers don't take into account the huge comeback Dame had tonight, which some real measure of "Clutch" probably should. However, we should also note that Jokic has had those kind of bringing his team back games this year too. And has been the best player overall, statistically-speaking, this year. Which of course takes away some clutch opportunities/doesn't measure them fully either.
Dame had 50 points on 20 FGA and 18 FTA tonight. That he hit 100% of those FTs is most impressive. That Jamal had a 50 point night on 25 FGA and 0 FTA is even more so.
I'd love to test those 15 games you mention. I have no doubt it's a good number, but do doubt it's double-digits worth of game winners - I mean POR only has 23 wins. In terms of real game winning shots, of course I remember his series-clinching 3 over PG. Just don't forget all 6 of Jokicâs a year ago, 3 of which seemed to come one after the other.
Just going by the heartless stats between only the 3 players I highlighted, if copied out & compared from nba . com / clutch-traditional, it's:
2020-21 Reg Season: 1) Dame... 2) Jokic (yet best overall stats), 3) Murray
2020 Post Season: 1) Murray (best overall too), 2) Jokic... 3) Dame (but hurt)
2019-20 Reg Season: 1) Jokic, 2) Murray... 3) Dame (yet best overall stats)
2019 Post Season: 1) Murray, 2) Dame... 3) Jokic (yet best overall stats)
2018-19 Reg Season: 1) Jokic (best overall too), 2) Dame... 3) Murray
I'm not trying to diminish anyone. It really isn't a competition. At least not til their teams face one-another like they did in the 2019 Post Season or a couple weeks back. I'm simply not joining the echo chamber of hype. He's great. So are a couple other guys that don't get their due. I'm glad he's getting his.
we're so lucky... just in general.. even ppl that don't know who he is or what he does. goddamn lucky
Actually says wise, interesting stuff, not just same old same old. MVP.
Yeah, very refreshing to see that. Proud to be a Blazers fan
This interview - right after one of the best clutch win comebacks Iâve seen - wasnât typical at all. Iâm very impressed by what he said. Inspired enough to watch it again the next morning. Real life role model for Portand families. This blazers fan hopes that Dame Dollar đ” will retire from PDX in many years from now. Dame Time indeed- he took his time to break down how to be successful
@@Je-Vette right on. totally agree! He's the realest dude in NBA far as I can see.
Best player best leader. Unbelievable player and person
gotta give it to cp3 first...but dame is right there at the top with lebron as leaders.
An interview you can learn from. Someone who put in the work to get what he has now.
Dame is Portlandâs MJ
They definitely didnât lose out this time.
@JR O Seven Clyde Drexler will be the best blazer of all time.
@@adimihir lol no
@@beaudean2700 He won a ring, which lillard never will.đ€«
@@adimihir soo? Just because mark Madsen has 6 rings, doesn't make him better Shaq or close to kobe. Let's talk about how the individual played instead of the ring narrative.
â@@adimihir Clyde didn't win a ring in Portland so doesn't matter lmao. That is like saying Anthony Davis is the best Pelican in NBA History because he won a ring with the LAKERS and CP3 didn't win a single ring. Thus making AD the better player.
Listen to Dame, so inspirational man...
Itâs crazy how people can see this and say, but he ainât win a chip tho, as if it hasnât been almost the same team every year. This man built different.
because he chokes in the playoffs
@@weneedhim526 and this why ppl hate ppl like u
@@weneedhim526 again when you are an underdog year in and year out itâs not necessarily a choke, they already are counted out because people think that exact thought âhe chokesâ like cmon man.
@@youngstunna4549 because I expose their d riding for what it is, and state the truth, you guys are the most sensitive generations ever and you guys are the most fraud, because you rather hear lies than sad truth's
@@bradleythomas6044 Actually I don't wish to be loyal, true, talented and composed, you don't know anything about me, why even try to attack someone's life that you have no idea how it's like? and Dame always chokes in the playoffs, making wcf is not an accomplishment, especially getting swept, no impressions at all, he chokes a lot
Lillard is loyally af
facts!!
Just like your man Curry ;)
âLillard is loyal afâ* idiot.
Just listening to Dame make me feel like I can accomplish anything through hard work and humility.
You can!
Lillard is so articulate in the way he talks.
He is a rapper.
That's a racist statement
@@peaceblessings7344 fr
@@dominiclee1794 the devil is always in the details... passive-aggressive racist love to use subtle statements like that hoping it get lost in the nuances as a compliment... it's like calling him a N-word without him even knowing it... they get a kick out of it
@@peaceblessings7344 fr. What did they expect him to sound like lol. Heâs not even speaking in a super formal matter, and theyâre acting like he posh or something lmao. Heâs just talking and they acting like itâs a miracle or something.
The People's MVP.
Ain't gotta tell 'em.
My man, Dame W
Incredible interview! I love this guy's humility
Humility?
the perfect example of a great nba player. loyal to the team that drafted him, superstar in a small market, endorsements, beautiful family, and just a cold blooded killer on the court.
@@malachirobinson6696 a modest or low view of one's own importance; humbleness.
His poised demeanor sometimes overshadows him
What you mean? This comment caught my eye.
@@MayorMe it means his way of being non chalant and quiet sometimes makes his style of play go unnoticed he's not like Steph as far as flashiness he's a put your head down and work guy.. that's what I think he meant
@@MayorMe Meaning his mean muggin and tough guy swagger somewhat dims the light on his fun side to make other guys have fun while playing with him ! Imo
@Wally Thompson I like @lowermerrion33's answer better đ€·ââïž
@@ryliearapera2425 I agree âđŸ
Dame giving HOF ceremony answers lol đ
His speech is great!
Heâs always been one to give thorough answers. Never seen a dull Lillard interview
Answers were beautiful
Dame is the realist nba player in the league! You can just tell how humbled he is when he speaks
its not just him
@@weneedhim526 man, what's your point? đđđđ€ŠđŸââïž You looking mad on Dame af
That's his Oaktown mentality.
@@goatfromdr4298 what do you mean?
Damian is now at Steph's level. He also pays respect to Steph.
2 of my favorite players they were both underdogs and worked for it
Not at Stephs level but close
no he isnât at all. curry has done sm more than him. he is a cold player but he still getting there. notice how his name wasnt talked about 2-3 years ago? yeah steph is above him.
i agree but the steph fans are in denial
@@ivonneoduwa2647 dame was still talked about and noticed a lot 2-3 years ago lol, get your facts right bud
I would love to see Butler and Dame on the same team. They have the same mindset
was thinking the same! great blue collar superstars!
Those are my two favorite players just bc of the mentality and under-appreciation
Yeah wish Lillard would play for the Miami Heat đ
@@bone2765 that would be insane
@@bone2765 I wish Butler would play for Portland
Goosebumps listening to D Wade give Dame his flowers. His laid back demeanour can be why people overlook his greatness at times, but i'm glad he's beginning to understand just how much we all (regardless of the teams we support) appreciate him.
Idc if we donât win the chip I love this man and this team
I agree lil usé vert
If you dislike this dude you got issues
A lot of Curry fans dislike him for a variety of strange reasons.
@@DIvInItysCourse_16-91 they got issues
Factsđ anybody thatâs a so called rival they automatically hate
@@justbeinghonestyk9354 lol thsts how oops are made lol
russell westbrook đđđ
I believe Damian will be the best player in blazers history at the end of his career donât @ me
i think he is already the best, imo.
Not exactly a hot take. Clyde Drexler has said it himself
Sam Bowie
He already is. Like a week or two ago he said it himself in a press conference lol
The âgreatestâ blazer ever said he was already the best
He deserves all the media attention n love real talk đŻ
All the young ballers need to get them jumpers up
i actually disagree, nowadays too many kids wanna be steph and just shoot and dont even learn the basics. if you cant even do a left handed layup, dont start shooting fro the halfcortline
@@Max-me9ol yes I shouldnât assume that they know the basics. I watch the way circuit a lot so I see a bunch of the more talented kids. But I was talking about the shorter kids that actually do play
Dame is my MVP so far this season and Candace is fine
Not the fine part Tho!!!!
Look at Dame man. What an inspiration
His play, his character, his story - nothing short of a blessing to watch him hoop
I don't know how you could hate dame he gives his heart out every day . And there is one thing that he has stayed on the same team even in very bad times or good times that is loyalty. A thing that is nearly over in the NBA dame is an absolute legend.
Just an incredible person all the way around. His answers to the questions didn't have to have polish on them, he said it like it was. Great teaching moment to everyone. Such a real person, blessed to be in this era with him.
That was one of the best post game interviews Iâve ever seen no hyperbole. Love that dude.
I love hearing Dame talk, such a intelligent man
He holds so much respect for D.Wade, its great to see.
Dame is playing at MVP level and what a great answers
heâs so inspirational itâs just like a legend having fun at the game
This man got that mamba aura đȘ
were so lucky to have Dame here in portland, even he doesn't win a chip he's gone go down as a legend in portland, and as an nba player in general. he's such an intelligent and respectable person he sucha great to look up to and have as a role model here in portland
its undeniable that dame dolla has inherited Kobe's mantra " mamba mentality " đŻđȘđœđ„
I can't understand why he is so underrated. Always on my team. Someone to look up to.
Because heâs in Portland
Aside from his work on the floor, I knew this dude was something else after watching his short Hotboxin interview. Integrity personified.
Very humble dame time đ„¶
MVP
Nope
MVP is possible for Lillard. He is averaging about 30 points per game, which is #2 in the league. CJ is coming back, so I could see the Blazers going on a nice run and finishing 3rd in the WCF. Embiid is missing a bunch of games, so the door is open for MVP.
@@Ugnep-sw9ng don't explain the obvious to stupid and casual ppl
@@Ugnep-sw9ng The door is not open lmao. Its embiid lebron and harden and joker are all before dame. I love damn. I think he's definally in the convo but to just bump him in front of those guys cuz he's won a few games is not it.
@@everydaywelitjones6192 why lebron and joker are in front of him?
Dame is a amazing player and individual, real stand up dude, gotta respect a person when he is that way.
This is one of most inspiring interview I have seen .
Phenomenal interview and definitely inspirational
A real one through and through
rmb Shaq and Dame used to throw distracks and now Shaq embracing Dame is heartwarming
It was all a publicity stunt
Lillard will go to history as one of the best ever đ
so motivational interview
not just great player
but also the best person
I was really impressed by his answers!!! đđđ
This was some interview! Inspiring stuff!
Best interview I seen in years
Been rocking with the Blazers for longest because of Dame, never switches up...
This is up there with one of the best post game interviews I have seen in a while
Dame is highly intelligent and has the highest EQ (Emotional Quotient) of any NBA player I know. In simple terms, he has a maturity to him. He's compassionate and responsible. Dad gene way ahead of his time. Great humility and sincerity. Authenticity. About the perfect collection of traits for a leader. Best leader by far in the NBA, and best team-mate. And regarding his basketball, quite simply, the best player in the NBA. Absolute wizard.
Watched this a few times now incredible
Dame is just tremendous. How can anyone not love him? Props to D Wade for calling him a âbad dudeâ đâ
This is such a beautifully mastered interview after what had to be one of the most difficult comeback performance in nba history. This solidified who I always thought he was as a person. Beyond basketball Dame is just amazing MAN who deserves nothing but love & appreciation for simply who he is.
Man, dame is just a beast. Top 5 PG in the league. Hands down.
HUMBLE LEGEND, we're blessed to witness such greatness đ
A damn good interview.
I am a huge fan now more than ever!!!!! BIG RESPECT bredren!!!! Such a dope human being
Very well said! đ
I Love Everything About This Guy...GREAT Post Game Interview
Legend bro...just LegendaryđđŸđđŸđđŸ
One of my favorite players right there.
You are sensational brother keep up the good work
Huge respect man this guy is the definition of kind of people you should be surrounded with so you learn from them and be successful in life or whatever you do huge respect from a raptors fan just wish you dropped to the 8th pick and not picked up 6th by the blazers
Words and work speaks itself . Big fan dame
i love dame bro, as a person and as a player
Dame is the definition of a true leader and a
risk tasker!!!
Dame is one of the best in the game! I do hope he wins a chip one of these days.
Look at dame man .. so inspirational
Humility at its finest! "None of that would be possible without a work".
Ayo first of all dame's postgame interview was one of the best I've ever seen no doubt đ€ inspirational and well spoken. But just also felt like throwing in that honestly even though it obviously doesn't come close to inside the nba on Thursdays, I like this crew that they have on Tuesdays and Adam is actually a really good host. Didn't really like him at first but the chemistry with everyone is growing and it's become a nice different feel to the OG crew for Thursdays
dame know true unity bond teamwork . just wow
Look at Dame man truly inspirational
Look at Lillard so inspirational đ
this post-game interview is actually the reason why he is my favourite player
Love Clutch Man!!!!
All his responses were dope âđŸđȘđŸ
How do you not root for this guy. My favorite player.. always. âđŸ
Love this guy
i feel like dame is going to have a larry Fitzgerald like career. Loyal to a small franchise and fans desperately want them to win a championship because they are great people.
Love you even more brother đȘđż letâs go get this chip
Look at Dame man, so inspirational.
We love you! You make us proud here in the city of roses!!đ€đ€đ€
if this dude ever wins a chip ima bawl my eyes out
Respect to this Man.
congratulaions dame ane rhe rest of blazer team!
