Dame Dollaz drops in 3-pointers to set the comeback in motion

Damian Lillard always points to his wrist in winning time to tell the crowd he’s about to take over. Well in the 3rd quarter, Lillard set things off with back-to-back 3-pointers to give control to Team LeBron that they never really gave up…

Dame Dollaz scored 18 points with six 3-point shots. He led everyone in the game with a plus/minus of +20. His back to back shot from the logo gave his squad the belief that they were not going to lose. He was the shooter that LeBron James covets on every team that he plays for throughout his career.

Lillard is the guy that is always rumored to the Lakers because…

  1. He can shoot the ball from the 3-point line.
  2. Lillard can do it in crunch time.

Well this game had everything. Even Coach Malone had his own motives to motivate Team LeBron…

According to ESPN’s Dave McMenamin, LeBron James wanted to see the J. Cole halftime show. Malone said he would if the transition defense would improve in the second half.

The rest is history.

Do you think J. Cole will travel to the next 25 games?
