"If you were to pick a player that would help you win a championship, who would you pick?" Damian Lillard just got traded to the Bucks where he's now teammates with Giannis Antetokounmpo. Dame literally spoke it into existence.

The cool thing about Dame is you get the feeling that all the money and fame hasn't changed him... he would be this same individual looking to take care of his people and make a positive impact no matter how his life turned out. Can't say it enough but he is bigger than just an NBA player or rapper. GO BLAZERS!!!

@@no12578 What’s Giannis ever done without all stars next to him? He’s also highly overrated on defense, the game against the Lakers when AD & Lebron were going off this dude was guarding Austin Reeves lmao. Luka’s offensive impact is far greater than Giannis’s “defensive impact” & the numbers back that up, especially in the playoffs.

He never was a vegan. He just ate plant-based for 6 months.^^ Veganism is a lifestyle, which is about reducing the animal suffering as far as possible and practical, while staying a part of the society. He never really cared about the ethics. Else he wouldnt have gone back because "chicken tastes so well". Also...his cook must have s´cked.😂

Steph fan here, but i always loved Dame as my 2nd fav PG in the league (players wise 4th overall behind Steph Klay Giannis). He is a legit franchise guy. Hope he wins a ring soon!!! More than deserving of it
nothing gets over this man's head he's so humble for real
Respect. Wish him nothing but the best.
the foreshadowing is crazy the script writers in they bag
His CJ comment made me sad......because it was real. It's hard to maintain a high level friendship when you're not with each other as much.
Thank you for being such an amazing person player and inspiration Oregon loves you brother ✊

Such a dawg I’ll always respect him.. and never forget what he’s capable of
Dame is solid I respect this man so much
Nahhhhhhh now you with the bucks that's crazyyyy lmfao
so proud to have Damian Lillard as my star player for the Blazers for the last 10 years. Even if he leaves I’ll still always have mad respect for him.
Finally he gets to be with Giannis
Damian Lillard is one of the realest. He's true to his social beliefs and acts accordingly, doesn't put himself in front too much but just does his thing and people give him the respect he's due, without him always demanding it like some do. Love his attitude
Dame has nicest step back 3 I ever seen his form to his release on point it caught my eye first time I watched a game he played in
Love this NBA star! I love his character, it's so good to see the real Dame!
Dame in Milwaukee now 🔥
This aged well…
We have been luckily to have Dame. He's a good dude.
Dam hands down 1 of my fav nba players so fun watching him play
when he said he stopped being vegan bc of fried chicken killed me 🤣🤣
Dame you made my dream come true. I can't wait to see you along with Giannis and the Bucks. 8:25
who else watching this 10 months later?😂 alot of things come full circle & somethings just crazy as far as what he said & what happened now
4:09 the foreshadowing is crazy y’all
Parts 4:10 and 8:24 questions aged well because Damian Lillard got traded to the Milwaukee Bucks and is a teammate with Giannis now.
Dame's a real OG; he doesn't shoot to miss
He seems disappointed or a lil sad about the cj situation but he still cares about him like a brother
