Look, there are no words to describe the game that Damian Lillard gave the Thunder on Tuesday night. He had 27 points in the first 17 minutes of the game, and while the Thunder were able to slow him down and take a double-digit lead as the game winded down, Dame had the last say on this one.
This isn’t just a game-winner, mind you. This is a 37-foot shot, at the buzzer, fading away, to eliminate the Thunder from the playoffs and go on to the second round. That shot makes it a 50-point game for Dame.
