Dame always so good with media. Patient, respectful and honest. He left such a great impression on everyone at Portland. Wish him the best. Praying for his family situation.
Portland fan here but cheering for Dame
Plz take this weekend with you to the regular season…

Brothers, please understand this man is not efficient. Giannis will have to work extra hard to win anything with Dame. You can play basketball and be casual about it. He never breaks a sweat. If he can't make a change....we can kiss the championship goodbye

That pull up half court shot was a bomb. The way it went in was ridiculous. Not sure if I’ve ever seen a swish like that.

And to believe some days/weeks ago ESPN kept trashing Dame, and saying Brunson should have starter over him. Don't make me wrong, Brunson is a great player. But Dame is part of the NBAs elite and has been so for sometime

Just get rid of the ASG completely, and turn the 3-pt contest into a East vs West tournament. Each side has their own elimination rounds on Saturday and Sunday, and then the EvsW final is Sunday evening. No more excuses from players about injury risks, needing rest, etc.
Portland and Milwaukie rooting for you Dame. God bless.
Congrats all the best

The reason he isn't making many shots is because he feels the need to share the ball and he is hesitating his shot, after he hesitates the ball doesn't move back to him after the pass for the shot so it ends up being a hot from brook lopez or bobby portis which is truly the problem.@@justwayne75

Kobe was the last era of great All-Star games. Ever since then. They all have been trash. It's pretty funny how these NBA players really think that this is entertaining to the fans. They should be ashamed of themselves. Nobody wants to see a whole bunch of people just shoot up a whole bunch of threes. And not play no defense at all. This is horrible. I feel sorry for the people that actually paid to go see this. 😮😮

Why would they even give an MVP award? They don't compete. It's so disrespectful to the greats of basketball. They took pride in the game. Poor Larry, he asked them to compete and play hard and they spit in his face!!
I prefer the previous format where the captains pick teams and they play to determine number. It brings out and raises the competition amongst the players

This game is a complete joke! When you can go in for an uncontested layup , sure you're going to score 200 points!
Def wanted to see 200
I saw an article with the headline the NBA should do to the all star game what the NFL did to the pro bowl. I agree. I would rather see the NBA all stars playing flag football than whatever you call what they did yesterday.

With this 65 game rule competitive all star games will never happen idk why they keep asking them about it.
Play defense in the 4th if it's close.
Same discipline

First 🥇I'm more competitive than the all-star game 😂
Dame “ I don’t give a s$&t if the game is competitive “ Lillard! Fake MVP!
He said, "people who are fans of the game, they love it, they enjoy being entertained." Sadly Dame, that's the farthest thing from the truth. Real fans of basketball want to watch basketball. Real fans of the game aren't entertained by 211 points. You're mixing us up with the Belgian tourists who buy tickets to watch THE KNICKS play at MADISON SQUARE GARDEN. The game is advertised as an All Star GAME. Not an All Star TRICKSHOT CONTEST. If the players don't wanna play a game, they should get rid of the game, and call it something else. Then nobody's fooled, nobody's upset. Because right now, especially with how it's been going over the past few years, the NBA has the worst All Star Break out of the 4 Major Sports, when it should, by far in a way, be the best!

I’m not sure that this game could ever been competitive in the way a lot of people want it to be. Not having defensive schemes or the chemistry on defense will always lose to 5 of the best scorers in the league. So much of basketball is team chemistry and schemes. I understand wanting effort, but expecting a competitive nba game might be unrealistic

1 good thig in this all weekend was Steph and Sabrina . Rest was total trash.
Dame wins 3pt and allstar MVP like Embiid won the regular season MVP last year. 11-23 on 3s for allstar mvp while haliburton the hometown kid with 1 minute less playing time was 10-14 on 3s, same assists, 4 more rebounds. KAT went for a 50, also ignored... Dame 3pt contest trophy becomes laughable when his highest score after 3 attempts was 26. Stephen Curry vs Sabrina Ionescu on 1 attempt 29-26 ............... 3pt contest players being lucky steph doesnt sign up for it anymore!
Please stop playing this "game". Last yr should have been the low point. The guys don't want to play it with pride. Just name the team and give them 4 days off.
This dude is the only one who tries to win ASG awards because he knows he can't win the real stuff

KAT should've won MVP ... it's obvious no one is trying to win the game... its a personal offensive showcase and Kat had 50.. why are we rewarding Dame for winning??? .. all star game is a joke... nobody cares ... they literally just get out of the way on defense... scrap it or make it better
