    Just remember guys, Kyrie did the same thing last year. It's easy to fall off. (Though Kyrie has been getting it back recently)

    Lillard is a good shooter (Sometimes a chucker) like Kyrie Irving and Steph Curry. He's not a great passer like Chris Paul or Tony Parker.

    Kyrie is more about flash and less about fundamentals, he also has a really rotten attitude. I can see Lillard sustaining this.

    Terry Porter was a better than Lillard.

    This year Lillard has been anything but elite and probably never will be.

    You can't be elite shooting 40%. Dude is hot the past 2 games from 3s. He is clutch though.

    He's a very very good player.

    In my mind you can't be truly elite, if you don't play defence and Lillard doesn't play much of it. You're allways going to be a liability that the other team will exploite, especially in the postseason, when things actually matter. Sometimes you can compensate that, by sourounding a truly talented offensive player with complementary defensive pieces, but I don't think Lillard is that good, and even if he was, Blazers aren't exactly built like that.
