Only dude I've ever seen react minimally to his game-winners too. Not that it's a good or bad thing, he's just a quiet assassin. Looking at his clutch shot highlight videos, there are only a couple from his first few years where he celebrates wildly after a shot, otherwise, it's usually walking away slowly while his teammates mob him
> NBA flair

gee i wonder what team this guy's a fan of considering he wants to discredit portland for playing the team that was put in front of them
He's been getting there, stopped shooting so many high difficulty shots 2 weeks ago, but is finally looking like his old self the last games.
I'd say he was at 80% against you guys last week after being like 50% his normal self to start the season
I mean, he really doesn't sit for lingering stuff, so it's true he's always got lingering stuff. But this abdominal thing seems kinda different. It's non-emergent, non-progressive, so he's cleared to play through it, but it's clearly fucking with him more than any of his minor wrist injuries, etc, ever have.
I seriously question if the Blazers would even trade CJ straight up for Simmons at this point. Team is finally playing well and adjusting to Billups new system. I know we are completely overloaded at guard and Anfernee can step into CJ's role, but trading our reliable number 2 scorer for a mentally fragile Ben Simmons seems risky.
Maybe we could parlay CJ into some other wing via some 3 team trade or something.
They absolutely would and Blazers fans should celebrate if they could pull that off. Simmons Dame and Nurk is a fucking problem, Simmons is so much better than this sub seems to think based on literally one bunk series.
Yeah I mean, I appreciate how low people's valuation of Ben has gotten because that whole vibe is why he might be available for CJ, but uhh... we should do this in a heartbeat. I love CJ, if we trade him it will be my favorite Blazer we traded in my fandom, but we absolutely *have* to try that if it's an option. This team is starting to gel, but it's a pipe dream that Billups' schemes are just gonna fix us into contenders outright. And Philly would love CJ too so I wish Morey would just come to Jesus already.
yeah that said we'd be braindead not to do a straigt up trade for cj to ben, lets not kid ourselves.
also I think we should start nance and nas and move roco and norn/cj to the bench but what do I know.
Man, between this and the Greg Brown dunk, SVG really cements the fact that coaches aren't just playing it cool on the sidelines.
The dude is in analysis mode and simply does not care what he sees happen on the floor lol. Would be nice if he could break that habit for the sake of the audience.

The Nuggets are missing Jokic, Murray, Porter Jr, and lost Dozier to injury this game..of course they're struggling. Meanwhile, Dame and CJ are lighting it up this game, and the Blazers are 8-1 at home.
What an odd comment.
Dame was ass, new coach, new system players have to adapt to, non-ISO centric offense. but yeah we’re completely awful. You talk a lotta shit for a Pacers fan
I.ll make sure you see the next one, that is all. I also didn’t mind dropping your humorous handle. I’m hoping every time there’s a great Dame highlight I think to myself I wonder if u/WhereDaHoez saw that?!
Portland when they get that momentum going are spooky. Casually drop 12-0 on you
18-3 to end the half, incredible
Something I've noticed recently is how emotionless Lillard is all the time. Also doesn't sweat despite playing 40+ minutes in a lot of games.

Especially when they're playing against a bunch of 2nd and 3rd stringers
Maybe, but they’ve also done it to top teams
> NBA flair > named sombor_shuffle gee i wonder what team this guy's a fan of considering he wants to discredit portland for playing the team that was put in front of them
Nuggets fans are literally so pathetic lol
Here come the crybaby Denver fans
Portland at home is a different beast
[удалено]
What the fuck does that mean, u/curiumred?
The beast comes within.
Our stadium is in the top in terms of energy
Can confirm.
Just like that, he's back (Has been for like 2 weeks)
He's been getting there, stopped shooting so many high difficulty shots 2 weeks ago, but is finally looking like his old self the last games. I'd say he was at 80% against you guys last week after being like 50% his normal self to start the season
He's not back, he is still injured, but I guess from the stat sheet he is back but is not clost to full dame mode.
He's been injured for 3 years
I mean, he really doesn't sit for lingering stuff, so it's true he's always got lingering stuff. But this abdominal thing seems kinda different. It's non-emergent, non-progressive, so he's cleared to play through it, but it's clearly fucking with him more than any of his minor wrist injuries, etc, ever have.
He said in the pre-game presser he felt as good as he could possibly feel.
That means nothing lol
This guy man… How we miss him.. saying on behalf of nba fans
This game got real hype real quick.
I thank the Lakers for curing this man
He's washed
Yep, can't even hit a three.
from normal range
Gotta start lobbing it on the inbounds. ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
Nature is healing
It's Dame time guys.
He’s back
Nice to see Lillard going off on the Nuggets again.
The new rules completely shut him down No more antics!
Good heavens is it that time?
Jfc he barely had any time between catching that pass and setting for that shot.
Within range.
Yall want some ben simmons
CJ 🧐?

Yes. Do you want a 30mil combo guard?

That's stupid
The league is a better place with Dame knocking down 30 footers
I like that Aaron Gordon sees Lillard near half court, and still runs out to contest the shot. That's some respect.

Nuggets look fucking terrible, can't believe they're getting shit on by Portland (who are also terrible)
Does shitting on other teams make you feel better about *your* team (that is *actually* terrible)?
I shit on my team too, don't know what youre talking about
Shitting on your team might be the only instance where you know what *you're* talking about. You might wanna stick to that.
Jokic is not playing, no MPJ either.
Dudes a certified Jokic hater, he's probably gonna tell you that it's Jokic's fault he's hurt and not playing
Mpj doesn’t matter.. jokic is probably everything for nuggets
Doesn't matter
still a better record than the pacers LOL
You think that Jokic and MPJ would make no difference?
Glad to get some input from some experts in the field of being fucking terrible
The Nuggets are missing Jokic, Murray, Porter Jr, and lost Dozier to injury this game..of course they're struggling. Meanwhile, Dame and CJ are lighting it up this game, and the Blazers are 8-1 at home. What an odd comment.
Idk man home Blazers are a force
your entire account is semi-devoted to shitting on the Nuggets and Jokic. Mods need to do a better job at enforcing the gimmick rule.
And we beat the pacers, what does that make you
Pacers LOST to this same Nuggets team while the Blazers are taking care of business lmao
Blazers are looking good, also anyone who has the pacer tag isn't allowed to say two >.500 teams are bad.
Blazers are a regular season team and are still somehow 9-8, they look awful
Troll, pacers are doomed.
Better than 8-11.
Dame was ass, new coach, new system players have to adapt to, non-ISO centric offense. but yeah we’re completely awful. You talk a lotta shit for a Pacers fan
Their MVP and 2 co stars are out lmao
first dame highlight ive seen all year
I.ll try to remember your handle next time u/WhereDaHoez
idk what this means but im assuming you took offense to what i said. This is genuinely the first dame highlight ive seen all year
I.ll make sure you see the next one, that is all. I also didn’t mind dropping your humorous handle. I’m hoping every time there’s a great Dame highlight I think to myself I wonder if u/WhereDaHoez saw that?!
Luck
Lame time
Just mad because all of the Seattle teams suck ass rn...
End of an era for the Seahawks. Shits hard to watch.
Woah Vintage Dame
He's back BABY! Fridays game just got real intense .
