Rhythm comes naturally for Damian Lillard. Be it handling the rock, or spitting a rap note, he is the ace. Even the stage name for his rapper avatar has a sonorous depth to it. Just utter once – Dame D.O.L.L.A – and you would feel the vibe. That is why his ?Farewell? song is so special.
For someone who has given eleven years of his career to a team, Dame should have his own swan song. But, are all fans taking it as a dedication, or is there a difference of opinion too?
Is there a secret sauce to winning?

The 7-time all-star kept the Blazers relevant for almost a decade. If not for the Golden State Warriors, his team would have reached the finals as well. Yet, in the times of ‘Super Teams,’ he kept calm and put it in his work, and expected his front office to do their best.
But, you cannot leave everything to the front office people if you want some special players to tag along with you. This is a player’s league, and player to player communication could have made some favorable decisions to come by. At his probable fag end at Portland, fans drummed up their Dame response.
RipCity fans love you Dame. So sorry this happened.

“Man,” a fan said, “really wish something could have worked out. So unfortunate how things played out. Wish you nothing but the best.” Some of them even strike a comparison between his song and the seasoned services to the Blazers.
Man already dropped a song after getting traded? now that?s dedication.

Had the veteran guard won a title with the Portland Trail Blazers, a fan wondered, would he have ever left this team?
Anyway, a fan said, staying back was not meant to be, as Damian Lillard is on his way.
To the new beginnings of Damian Lillard
Milwaukee has never had a shooter like Lillard before. Giannis Antetokounmpo will have more space than ever to drive through because the defense will be busy trying to contain the sharpshooter. Khris Middleton will be back in full health as well. Overall, when this version of the Bucks would step on the court, they would put the whole league on notice.

As for the Portland Trail Blazers, Scoot Henderson should take on Lillard?s mantle and run with it. The Rip City has some nice pieces for Chauncey Billups to create an impact. Anfernee Simons, who knows the system, should shoulder more responsibilities. And, DeAndre Ayton, should use this fresh start to rewrite the negative narrative that is being espoused about him. Above all, there is the Champion Jrue Holiday who can lead the Blazers to a new dawn.
