This display by Lillard is an honor to watch.

I don't think we've been playing bad defense on him either. Just tip the hat.

Dame has played the entire 2nd half. If we play well the rest of the way, he will likely run out of gas and we'll take it.

Things went to **** once we put Grant Williams in the game. Also freezing out Tatum for a whole quarter was not a good idea either when he was hitting everything.

Kanter's in because Theis is unable to do anything against Nurkic/Whiteside. He's been getting killed in that matchup all game.

I won't lie, part of me wants Dame to get into the playoffs too.

Regardless of how you feel about the performance of our team, you have to hand it to Lillard. He is a gamer.

How long is it taking you to pick up your amazon package man? I'm concerned lol. That **** should take no more than 1-3 minutes.

Doesn't look like he's running out of gas though. These guys are pretty well-rested at this point.

They ran the same play like 12x and we threw the same defense at it as they scored over and over and over lol.. Brought to you by Brad Stevens the man who let Devin Booker score 70 pts on him.
WHAT THEY GON’ SAY NOW? ‎ THANK YOU TRUTH!
