#DamianLillard is back in Portland but will never win a championship πŸ‘€ #NBA

Dame will never win a championship. I’m I’m saying that now. Obviously, it’s a great story him going back there. We know how much he loved it. It was hard for him to even leave. The fans are excited about him coming back. He was miserable for, you know, at risk of overstating it in Milwaukee. So, this is great in that regard. And a lot of people would say he could have went to the Lakers. Now remember, he’s going to probably miss maybe all of next season. But let’s say you can point to teams Golden State, the Lakers, or you know, some of these contenders that maybe he could have gone to for less. You know, he doesn’t need a lot of money cuz Milwaukee still got to pay him and have a shot at winning a championship. But here’s the thing. While it’d be nice to see Dame win a championship and nice for him, he wouldn’t be the first guy. He wouldn’t be the number two guy in many of these cases. Like with the Lakers, he wouldn’t be the number two guy. He’d probably be a third guy. So you’re looking at like Gary Payeyton. It was great to see him get a ring. Jason Kid even, you know, he started and got that ring, but it didn’t really change their legacies because they were no longer the superstars and they weren’t leading the teams. So, I think that’s where Dame

  1. Thank you very much for your talent and labor! Your videos always leave a positive impression.‍♂️πŸ–₯πŸ•

  2. The Greatest Point Guard ever never won a title and never left the team who drafted him- unlike his power forward. I am glad he will be happy playing ball again.

  3. Thank you very much for the variety of topics and unique style. Your videos always leave a positive impression.πŸ”πŸ‘„πŸ¦„

  4. The β€œ best player to never win a ring” list is going to get significantly longer soon. Cp3/ harden/ dame/ embiid.

  5. A ring is a ring as long as you contributed and wasn’t a bench rider…

  6. Sports broadcasters when they find out ppl care about more than just championships 😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑

  7. I'm excited to see more dame blazer highlights. puttin' that vet star back on the team he's most known for. πŸ™ speedy/full recovery and no more future problems.

  8. Great guy, but he was never that serious about winning. Wasted too much time in Portland , chased the bag, all fine btw, but winning was not his number 1 priority

  9. 2nd best shooter of all time. Maybe the most clutch. Nobody could have won with those teams in Portland. Milwaukee thing was a disaster. He could still end up with a contender off the bench in a few years.

  10. Who cares it’s not like he in the goat debate or top 15 all time. He teamed up with Giannis and it got him no where cause of injuries like he said him going anywhere don’t guarantee no chip and it’s going to be like that for a lot of players it’s ok to be an all time player for a team and make millions instead of ring chasing. Rings out matter to players trying to be an all time great. I’m glad he back in Portland!

  11. He could have been a champion with a better supporting cast but the Bucks were injured and terribly run and the Blazers didn’t go all in

  12. I consider dame like I consider Beal. An individual great player but not a player I would ever put over players that took or dragged their teams to a championship.

  13. Who cares? There’s no shame in being a beloved, iconic franchise player like Reggie Miller or John Stockton.

  14. U just figured out he will never win a championship? Chris you surprise me, Dame healthy never made bucks with one of the top 2 players in the league a contender, Dame is like my favorite player and Iverson
