Damian Lillard is the most overrated player in the league

[Aidz]

The hype around this guy is ridiculous.
Clearly the media is trying to manufacture a replacement for Derrick Rose.
Let's be real, Lillard is shooting 41.7% from the field. That's a cancer.
His full stats are 20.8 pgg and 5.7apg

Compare that to Kyrie (another overrated player).
42.7% fg / 22.0ppg / 6.4apg

Lillard is surrounded by Aldridge, Batum, Wesley Matthews and Lopez and he can only put up 5.7 apg and he shoots bricks. He is an average point guard at best.

[IncarceratedBob]

Not a cancer but the team is best with Mo on the floor

[MUGEN]

You are a moron if you actually think that

or a moron who doesn't watch him play. Some bad games doesn't neglect how good of a player he is

[Lebron23]

Lillard is a good player. The reason his FG% are lower because he's attempting to many 3 pointers.

[Milbuck]

stop

[Levity]

why do so many of you like to ruin the NBA for yourself.

who the fck cares if someone is overrated or not. you guys treat nba players like basketball cards. always trying to put value in them and compare them to others. just enjoy the game. itll make you all happier people.

[Lebron23]

Lillard's team is winning while Kyrie's team is losing.

[RoseCity07]

He's been playing like shit for 3 weeks now. He's in a slump.

and you obviously dont watch the blazers. their offense is centered around continually swinging the ball and setting weave screens until someone can get an open shot

[noob cake]

Irving is twice the player LIllards is.

Not concerned.

[Black and White]

Lillard overrated??? You serious??? :lol

[Milbuck]

Irving is twice the player LIllards is.

He was really good at the start of the season.

[RoseCity07]

He was really good at the start of the season.

Yeah, it was an impressive start. He and Aldridge playing at their peak make this team good enough to be at OKC's level. Unfortunately Lillard is in the worst slump of his career. He's not finishing at the rim as well and not shooting that many 3's anymore. I don't understand why he's changes his game so much. It has to be confidence.

This. He's been incredibly inconsistent as of late. Dude really needs to improve his finishing at the rim, it costs us at least a couple buckets a game on easy misses under the rim.

[I.R.Beast]

false.... the reason his FG% is so low is beause he is average from nearly everywhere inside of 20 feet....he's below 50% in the paint....needs to improve his finishing etc..

[Alan Ogg]

Aldridge 21.1 FGA to get 24.3 PPG (TS% 51.8%)
Lillard 15.8 FGA to get 20.7 PPG (TS% 57.3%)

[Fudge]

Playing like shit tonight as well. AINT helping me in fantasy at all, BRUH.

Pick it up, Damez.

[Ancient Legend]

When Curry scored 38 on his ass, I knew Lillard was hype. He crossovered the shit out of him.

Blazer fans will tell you it was a b2b game though.

I'm sure they will considering it was.

[Inferno]

Still more efficient than Kyrie :confusedshrug:

:lol

[bballbball]

His non-finishing ass is killing my FG% in fantasy. Only really useful for FT% and 3s which he has been poor at lately.

[Marlo_Stanfield]

dis nikka just cant finish around the rim and takes to many threes. i dont watch enough portland games and dont know how much he handles the ball but 5,7 assists sounds a bit weak too on such a team. if he improves shot selection and finishing at the rim hell be a straight up beast. this is only his second year:wtf: :biggums:

[Draz]

I don't think he's being hyped at all. His play justifies his achievements and love from fans.

[noob cake]

Let the truth bomb set your shackles free. :bowdown:

[RoundMoundOfReb]

Not really...He's a borderline top 5 pg

[GimmeThat]

that James Harden defense with Harden like efficiency

they have a pretty good starting line up though


I don't know what's the effect of having young players play more minutes early on in their career

but I think Mo Williams took away some of his minutes

didn't they get Steve Blake back?
that's two players could play next to each other than the other way around.

The grass is green thats so cool :D

[MiseryCityTexas]

Prime T'Wolves Stephon Marbury was better than Lillard.

[KyrieTheFuture]

Do people actually think Lillard is better than Irving?

[OncePerMonth]

It is close between Lillard and Irving, but the real difference in their assists is because of how ball dominant Irving is. He has the ball until he sees an open player, rather than giving up the ball early for an actual play to be ran.

Lillard is actually better than Irving.
