IFWT_Lillard dunk 1

The Los Angeles Lakers without Kobe Bryant, hung around for three quarters against the Portland Trailblazers but the fourth quarter was all about Damian Lillard.  He put up 17 points on 6-of-8 shooting in that time and included this monster dunk.

Damian Lillard finished the night with 34 points.

However what everyone was talking about after the game was Lillard’s monster and-1 dunk that was part of his fourth quarter onslaught.

“The time before I had the ball at half court and (Lakers’ point guard Ronnie Price) was pressed up on me, like way up at the half court line, and I saw everybody was flat on the baseline. I got in there the first time and I wanted to see how the bigs would play it, the first time they rotated over and I just threw it to (Chris) Kaman.

“The next time I went to half court and wanted to see if they would press up on me again, and he did, and I got in the lane again and I wanted to see if the big would come over and he just stayed back and by the time I gathered and went up it was basically too late.”
