What’s Happening With Damian Lillard In Milwaukee Can’t Be Ignored..

It’s no secret that Damen Lillard was widely viewed as one of the most loyal stars in the league during his time in Portland this man was so loyal that he would even criticize other stars for running from the grind as he stayed true exhausting all options in Portland that

Dame and PG beef was definitely a classic but despite Dame’s loyalty given Portland everything that he had and still having an appetite to win in Portland the Blazers would still ultimately decide to look towards the future doing things like drafting scoot Henderson third overall in this past draft the blers drafting Scoot and

Refusing to push assets and having no interest in winning now would ultimately signal the end for Damon Portland as we knew it with him being sent to Milwaukee but if you let Dame tell it that’s not initially the way that things were supposed to play out at all and that’s

Starting to wear on him but first so over the years I’ve grown to love going to Live Events like concerts and basketball games with my family and friends but while I’ve love going to events there is one thing that I used to hate about them and that was the whole

Especially skyh high expectations after coming out of nowhere and trading for Damen Lillard in an effort to appease the massive wi now appetite of yanis sant TMO everybody thought that Dame was going to Miami but that wouldn’t be the case despite a Miami move being what Dame initially wanted this whole

Situation was a mess at least it was to me Dame himself wouldn’t even be shy about Miami being his desired destination even after landing in Milwaukee while Dame wouldn’t get his wish of going to Miami he would get the opportunity to pair up with the most dominant force in the league yanis Sant

TMO who surprisingly didn’t crack his lineup for his dream starting five on this list Dame would include babo Who currently plays for the Miami Heat over his current teammate yanis Santo and babaya who is a known troll wouldn’t make this situation any better as his response to this would be a gif of

Westbrook saying that’s very interesting while Milwaukee wasn’t Dame supposed it initial destination it still was one where he saw Limitless potential the League’s best deep range shooter pairing up with the League’s most dominant player and Giannis what could possibly go wrong for starters before the season even started damood loses former head

Coach Terry STS STS was a lead assistant on Adrien Griffin’s staff and supposed to be the Mastermind behind their offense after losing STS Dame would eventually lose Adrien Griffin who started the season as the buck head coach AG would be replaced by Doc and stop me if you’ve heard this one before

But the whole thing was a mess apparently a major reason that the Bucks felt the need to replace Griffin was the fact that he couldn’t figure out how to get the most out of Dame last season Damen Lillard would be coming off of one of his best offensive Seasons averaging

32.2 points and 7.3 assists while shooting 46.3% from the field and 37.1% from Deep this season Dame hasn’t been close to touching those numbers as his numbers and deficiency are way down this season Dame has been averaging 24.5 points and 6.8 assists while shooting 42.5% from the field and 34.4% from deep

I understand the points being downplaying alongside Giannis but if they have to be down then there’s no doubt that the efficiency should be better sadly so far the pairing of Giannis and Dame hasn’t exactly gone to plan yielding mixed results with Dame looking like a shell of the man that

Stole our hearts shooting from the parking lot in Portland the good news for Milwaukee fans is that Giannis has been his dominant self having his best offensive season to date averaging 30.7 points 11.2 rebounds and 6.3 assists while shooting 61.1% from the field again Giannis has

Been a beast this year and he’s showing no signs of letting up I actually think that he’s been so good that we need to do a breakdown on the season that he’s been having very soon so if you guys are new be sure to subscribe and turn on

Notifications so that you don’t miss that that breakdown or any new content that I might drop more good news for Bucks fans is that although we’ve only seen shades of the best version of Dame this year this team has still been looking much better as of late after an

Abysmal start to the Doc Rivers era now the bad news is that some people are already starting to wonder if Damen Lillard is in it thanks to some recent comments that have been made by the dynamic Buck star about a month ago in an interview with Yahoo Dame called his

Divorce and moved to Milwaukee the hardest transition of his life to quote Dame as much as I love basketball and I love my job I don’t care about it more than I care about my kids of course you carry it with you when people say when I

Hope I ain’t thinking about nothing but I’m not 21 I got three kids I’m tight with my family and I’m going through a divorce make no mistake about it this wasn’t Dame giving us an excuse for the season that he’s been having this was more so Dame being candid and letting us

Know that he deals with things also at the end of the day this man is only human in a more recent interview Dame would continue to let us know how hard the adjusting to life in Milwaukee has been for him saying that he’s lonely and

Doesn’t have much of a life if you guys think that that sounds bad then maybe the full quote will sound a little better quote I go to practice go home watch Boxing play video games and man I search for this Boxing YouTube Channel 100 times and just pray that they have

Something new on there seriously I don’t have much of a life there’s no other way to put it this man has been going through it imagine that you become the greatest player that a franchise has seen you show incredible loyalty to that franchise you go on to raise your family

In the city where this franchise is located and then after all of this you end up getting traded away from your family while having to handle a divorce in the process guys divorces can get really ugly a divorce and having to move away from your family would be really

Rough for anybody Dame wouldn’t hold back on the honesty in this this interview now later in that same interview he would let us know that he was also surprised with the way that things had been going down in Milwaukee saying that I thought that we were going

To be where Boston is right now for reference the Celtics are currently 46 and 12 and own the best record in the entire NBA now while Dame would admit that he hasn’t found himself yet in Milwaukee and had lofty expectations coming into this season he says that he

Is in fact happy in Milwaukee and that he knew that there was a a chance that this entire process would take some time and while it has indeed taken some time for the Milwaukee Bucks to look fluid they’ve slowly but surely started figuring things out trust me I know that

This is going to sound crazy but as easy as it has been to dunk on dock the Bucks have been looking more cohesive since his hiring regardless of what their record under him says and I’m not just saying this because the Bucks recently smashed the Hornets 123 to 85 but I mean

Don’t get me wrong that Beatdown was was ugly and it did give the Bucks their biggest win of the season now while it’s always nice to beat any NBA team by 38 points what’s more impressive is the fact that doc has actually been able to turn around this Buck’s defense

According to the lead Sim since doc took over for Milwaukee the Bucks have been fifth in defensive rating fourth in opponent points in the paint second in opponent fast break points and first and opponent field goals inside of 6 feet mind you that they were near the the

Bottom for all of these categories before doc took over now don’t get me wrong as nice as it is that things are at least looking promising things are far from perfect in Milwaukee the fact that Dame hasn’t found himself yet with only 20 or so games remaining is

Concerning but at the same time strictly speaking from a basketball perspective that statement that I just said could be spun into a positive let’s think about this for a second the Bucks are currently a top team in the Eastern Conference and Damen Lillard hasn’t come close to playing his best basketball yet

What’s going to happen when this man starts cooking and his Synergy with yanis becomes undeniable guys in the comments below let me know what you think about Damien Lillard and this Milwaukee Bucks team do you guys have any faith in Doc putting together a successful postseason run should we be

More concerned with the fact that Dame says that he hasn’t found himself yet in Milwaukee again guys let me know what you think of everything down in the comments below clicking the video on the screen right now is a great way to support my channel I’m get like Coupe

  1. Dame has been unselfish, he's always looking to get his teammates involved first. I like the way he finds people out there in their flow of things. He works well with everybody. But since the season started i've noticed that the other players don't look to him in the same way. So i hope they will reward him with passes that play to his strengths too.

  2. Of course he wanted to be in Miami… best org, best coaching staff, best culture that meets his general vibe, better launching pad for his sponsors and his music, WAY better culture in the city and with the ocean right there? Vs Milwaukee? Stop.

  3. You end up being traded away… He asked for a trade and it seems he would not even show to training camp if it wouldn't have been done. It's all him.

  4. This video is full of Lillard's PR nonsense. He was never loyal to Portland. He stayed to get the maximum amount of money (can't blame him for that), then he requested a trade as soon as he got his max contract. Plus, according to his wife's divorce papers, he's not a family man, he's never even been alone with his kids, and basically lives like James Harden with a better PR person.

  5. Dame is overrated, if this fails on the bucks it just shows Dame has only been able to perform when there was never any real expectations of winning anything 🤷‍♂

  6. The way I see it, no coaching changes easy and switching to a new team isn't easy for the season. The bucks have the third best record in the league at the moment and there are seven and seven with doc as their coach I personally don't see them in a bad spot at all. Their defense is finally getting back to what it was. Giannis is still doing giannis things and if Lillard peaks in the playoffs. It could be something good for them mind you, this is coming from a Laker fan that doesn't actually want them to win

  7. All he gotta do is jump on the ball as a help defender when the player turns away from the defense. It’s there every time for him but he run to shoot the 3 instead.
    EVERYTIME!!!!

  8. the man played how many years in portland and still got to greedy to make a deal with miami. like you owe dame, portland lost my respect for that.
