    The day this is uploaded, Dame hits another dagger three and takes a charge in the clutch to seal the game for the Blazers against the Warriors. The man is just special. He is doing all of this lately while dealing with a lot of personal losses in his family, which makes his ability to rise in the clutch time after time again all the more impressive.

    Gilbert arenas is one of the greatest scorers the NBA has ever seen in my top five personally to hear him talk the way he talked about Dame shows how much respect he has for him and his game Dame is easily a top 5 player in the league who took what gilbert and Steph Curry does to another level

  • @LunaticTheCat
    @LunaticTheCat 3 года назад +28

    It's really hard to compare Dame and Steph since they play in completely different offenses. If Dame played with a forward that can run the offense like Draymond, he would get way more open, uncontested shots by playing off the ball, running off screens. Right now most of the shots Dame takes are off the dribble, contested shots from the pick and roll and iso.
    So if Dame can do what he's doing right now by taking and making mostly tough, off the drible shots, just imagine the type of numbers he would put up if he was able to get a lot more easy open shots by play off the ball and run off screens the way Steph does.

    This is what I've been saying! Everytime I look at Dame, I see Gilbert. As a Wizards fan, Gilbert is my favorite player of all time and if anyone deserves to carry on the legacy of number 0, it's Damian Lillard.
    Lillard is doing what Gilbert Arenas should've been doing had his career not been cut short.

    • @oussamaokbi
      @oussamaokbi 3 года назад

      I feel the difference between steph and Dame is that Steph CAN shoot from deep, but Dame DOES shoot from deep. As Gil put it he does it constantly to condition his opponent and will more often than not fall back on it in a clutch moment because he practiced his deep 3's to perfection. Steph is just a freak of nature that will shoot it and get nothing but net from anywhere so it's not like he uses a particular shot more than others, he just shoots and it keeps going in because Steph isn't a real human being xD

    FYI: Gilbert averaged 29ppg on 58% TS in 2006 at 24 years old.
    "OMG dame is better", yeah but Gilbert's 29ppg in 2006 is probably 30-32ppg in 2021 if you consider pace and the amount of 3s he would be taking.
    Gilbert is FLAT out a better athlete than Dame, BIGGER and FASTER. There is no telling what kind of monster Gilbert would be if he stayed healthy and made it to 27-30 years old. Gilbert had career ending/altering knee surgeries at age 26.

    The comp is actually sooooooo accurate !
    Gilbert best regular season: 29.3-3.5-6.1-2steals on 45-37-82 splits
    Dame best regular season: 30-4-8 on 46-40-89 splits
    Very similar stats with the edge going to dame but also take into account Gilbert did this in 06 in one of the most slow paced eras of basketball
    He’s also correct in that his prime was cut short he had a years suspension for the gun incident and his last year of putting up good numbers was 2010 at the age of 28.... dames already 30 and he’s only been on this type of level for like 4-5 years... had that suspension not happened and Gilbert had no injuries etc... I could see him being an all star level player till like 2013 ish or maybe even 2015 since his game didn’t rely heavily on athletic ability and he would transition well as he could shoot it well

    I get Gilbert arenas was cold af. But thats disrespectful. He’s better. Dame the last 3 years has been averaging 30 and 8 for full seasons. Dame is quietly the best point guard in the NBA for the last 3 years and no one wants to admit because Steph changed basketball . But look at a side by side with dame and stephs numbers . Stephs fg percentage is crazy for a couple years but other than that dame is pretty clearly been the better scorer and passer for some time. And I don’t want no dam curry fans coming for me because of the WCF a couple years ago. They are both special but I think dame is up there as an all time PG with Steph

      Yep, people are sheep. They just baa at the thing that was impressive 4 years ago. The way that Dame is using his range as a tactic is different than just taking wild shots from time to time. The all star game is a good example. Curry is shown on all the replays, but Dame had a strictly better stat line, more makes, better FG%, and in less time coming off the bench, not to mention the last two 3s to end the game after Curry missed his chance to end it.
