Damian Lillard has never been afraid of speaking out his mind and reply to fans trying to troll him or his team. We saw how that went for Paul George and Patrick Beverley after they were eliminated from the playoffs in the second round against the Denver Nuggets, with Lillard inviting them to a vacation following that dramatic collapse.
It looks like fans haven’t learned that once you mess with Lillard, he’ll come after you with a big reply. That was the case with a Los Angeles Lakers fan trying to troll him and the Portland Trail Blazers last night for finishing 8th in the Western Conference Finals.
Overtime shared a video of Dame doing combat workouts. Some fans replied saying Damian did any kind of activity during the offseason except for basketball.

Lillard replied saying he played ball during the season, not when it’s done, as most stars do. That’s when a Lakers fan showed up trying to make fun of Lillard and his team, shaming them for being 8th seed this NBA season.

The All-Star point guard wasn’t having any of that, taking a big shot at the Lakers and their fans, who were a wandering team in the league before LeBron James arrived in the summer of 2018.
“What seed have you been the last 8 years before Bron came?” Lillard replied.

You definitely don’t want to taunt this man knowing he’s quick to reply with these shots. He knows what he does and when he’s not hooping, he’s rapping. Imagine if he used the offseason to train like other players… His improvement has been remarkable and people still feel Dame could do better if he trained when the league is finished.
He has other plans, though, and it doesn’t look like they’re not working for him.
