I consulted the internet a few moments ago and upon doing so I discovered that Mr. Damian Lillard of the Portland Trail Blazers made a 37 foot shot with 0.4 seconds to win game 5 of their first round series, thus providing the fourth win required to advance to the next round. Bravo, Mr. Lillard! Bravo! I believe I shall seek out a video recording of this feat of skill and daring so I may enjoy it.

Russ w that classic 11/31

siri define mean mug

the presence of mind to wave and then do that after hitting one of the greatest ever shots is just stunning

he does not belong to this world

Jusuf Nurkic said he decided to leave his house and come to the Moda Center with 3 minutes left in the 3rd Q. “I knew it was gonna make a difference,” he said.

Amazing still.

i do think russ played fine to well tonight... he can't shoot period and his numbers reflect that but he wasn't playing stupidly or selfishly and made a bunch of big plays on both ends. he wasn't the reason they lost, bad last possession not withstanding

okc in general played a pretty great game for a road team in an elimination game... got beat by a legendary performance basically

happens to the best of us

"That was a bad shot. I don't care who you are, that's a bad shot. That story won't be told. But that was a bad shot." PG on the Dame series-winner.

Paul George: buzzer-beater truther.

Damian Lillard shot *10-of-18* from 30 feet and beyond during the series against Oklahoma City, including 4-of-6 in the series-ending Game 5.

that definitely wasn't a bad shot

once the clock hit 5 seconds and he wasnt budging you knew where he wanted to go

Casey Holdahl

"Said he's been busting my ass for years. That wasn't true, for one, and this was the moment of truth. This was the perfect platform and opportunity for him to prove it and you see what happened." -- @Dame_Lillard

flaaaaames

Dame deserves his own thread
