I don't get how some people on oregonlive say hes overrated and won't do anything for the blazers, nice to see as the first headline on espn.com, Blazers' Lillard unanimous ROY, he's going to be a stud.
I heard Monty talk about ROY a few weeks before the season ended and he was a Dame fan so if the coach is advocating for another guy, the writer must have conceded.thomas time wrote:Ya I remember the Toronto guy giving Bargnani, I was expecting N.O. to give Anthony one. I think CP got all but one that Deron got in 05 or 06.
Wow well made vid. Lillard is certainly special.Duck07 wrote:
love it.The Rookie of the Year trophy rested beside him, the product of a pretty jump shot, great court vision, steely poise, and an uncanny ability to finish at the rim. But his true greatness was revealed once the subject turned to his one weakness - defense.
His smile faded, his eyes narrowed and his words became more firm.
“When people say stuff about my defense, it bothers me,’’ Lillard said. “And I’m aware of it. It drives me. It lights a fire under me.’’
If that attitude and drive doesn’t convince Trail Blazers fans that the franchise is in good hands, maybe this will: The wheels are already in motion for Lillard to workout and study defense this summer under the tutelage of the greatest defensive point guard ever, Hall of Famer Gary Payton.
