Playing like Steph right now, hitting about four 30-footers per game, while shooting about 70% from out there. He's shooting 75-139 over the last five games, and scored 47 or more in four of the last five (the only game he didn't, he got a triple double). This includes a cool 40-71 from three. Five games of average close to 50 points per. Could we be seeing another Steph Curry?

Dude has potential to be ridiculous.

Extremely impressed with him.

Could be a monster going forward,

Nope. Seeing the first Damian Lillard. Dudes been on fire recently. Fun player to watch and finally reaching that next level.

Portland is going to be a tough out if they stay healthy

It will be interesting to see what they do next year (or this year if they make the playoffs). The West is wide open.

He’s already said multiple times he doesn’t care about making super teams, he’s rather be a legend in a city. Superstars need to realize the baller this dude is and go up to the OR. Weed is legal anyway, big plus

Hasn’t he been really good now for like over 3 years now? You guys are acting like he just came in the league two weeks ago.

Every year, the media/talking heads try to drum up trades to get Liliard to a bigger market but he always stays true to Portland. He's one loyal dude and you can't help but admire that in this era of ring-chasing.

Dude is a baller. Besides Steph, I have him as the best pg in the league, over Westbrook and Kyrie.

Dame has been a top ten NBA player for a while now. Dude is a stud and easily one of my favorite players to watch.

Im sure ESPN has a stat for this. But this has gotta be one of the most impressive 5 game stretches in history.

Im sure guys like Kobe, Jordan, Lebron, and Durant havr something comparable, but still.

Only players with a higher scoring average over a 5 game stretch are Elgin Baylor, Wilt, Kobe, and Harden

Then you add in the assist and rebound totals...

He's been shooting Steph like bombs and hitting them at a respectable rate for as long as Steph. Dame and Steph are pretty much in a league of their own when it comes to long range bombing
