His iconic clutch shots to close out OKC and Houston in the playoffs prevent the media from criticizing Dame like he deserves.
dame is clutch af, but I don't think people see him as a real superstar. he's like on the butler/randle/beal level. sorry just adding to your post
I can't believe anyone is even watching this nonsense. Portland is gonna fight and hang around for a game 7. Dame is gonna have some great games and some **** ones, and he'll be average at best in game 7 and they'll for sure lose, and people will still clown about how clutch and awesome he is because of those 2 series winners. Edit: To be clear, he is awesome, and he's hit some huge shots, but Portland is never going anywhere with him as their best player. One fluke WCF run where they had an easy path and then got roasted by GS. That's their ceiling with him as their best player.
damn, it’s been 3 games, and this thread is only at 4 pages...lmao I’ll admit, I have yet to watch a second of this series they play at the latest time, and this series just isn’t that interesting to me...I’ll check in when we get towards game 6 or a game 7
just checked the boxscore...glad I didn’t waste time watching this game this has gotta be the least interesting series in the 1st round...no one has made a single comment about today’s game yet, and this thread is only 4 pages long heading into game 5
This series and the Memphis series . . . .folx don't care about them much Cause no one feels any team involved has a shot to go to the Championship series Rocket River
So is 1-10 “shrinking in the big moments?” Or is it OK when your scrub teammates carry you? asking for a Portland friend
i've actually watched a decent amount and yet even when i do i can't muster too much excitement, despite the fact it's been pretty good. dame isn't threatening any all-time legacies and jokic hasn't been good long enough for me to root against, but he's getting there. even then, he seems very likable so it's hard to really hate him.
He is one of the lesser superstars, nobody outside of Portland really cares about. (If he went and joined Lebron, more folks would tbf.) Always be in Steph's shadows. But I never heard about scandals, he has that going for himself.
That is the Kwame effect. Good on the players pushing back on the lazy media and their weak, attention seeking superlatives.
Nurkic has 0 sense of reliability. He consistently plays dumb and picks up unnecessary fouls. Is there really nobody on that sideline that’s telling him to be smarter
