?Would Disagree With Him?: Stephen Curry And Luka Doncic Enter Into The ?Best Point Guard? Debate After Damian Lillard?s?Outrageous?Take

Damian Lillard may be struggling with his trade request to Miami, but that doesn’t stop him from branding himself as the best in the business. The 7-time All-Star believes himself to be the best point guard on any court he steps on. This polarizing statement is now creating a new offseason din in the NBA world.

Following Damian Lillard’s outrageous take on the best point guard debate, Stephen Curry and Luka Doncic have now been dragged into the fray.

Zach Lowe disagrees with Damian Lillard

When discussing the best point guards in the NBA, Stephen Curry and Luka Doncic will invariably be a part of the conversation. Damian Lillard positioned himself alongside them on the list after claiming to be the best point guard and doubling down on his stance by selecting himself over Warriors Stephen Curry.

While discussing Lillard’s stance on the best PG debate on the NBA Today, ESPN journalist Zach Lowe chimed in with his views. Although Zach Lowe disagrees with Dame’s statement, he offers a unique perspective on an athlete’s psyche. “I would disagree with him. I would put Steph over him, maybe Luka. But he’s in the conversation, and what really matters is that he believes it. What else is he supposed to do? That’s how you go out there and become Damian Lillard, a top 75-All Time player.”

Dame’s recent statements about putting himself above Chef Curry on the list of best point guards in the league showcase his belief in himself more than anything.

The statement gives one a glimpse into the level of self-confidence an athlete has to harbor while playing in a league with the most talented players.

But what does Dame bring to the table?

The NBA Today conversation steered into Dame Dolla’s complicated trade saga. The Portland Trail Blazers guard has made his intentions clear about wanting to move to the South Beach. However, a deal has yet to be finalized since the Heats lack the trading capacity to convince the Blazers to trade Dame.

Last season, the Jimmy Butler-led Heat came extremely close to winning the championship for the fourth time in team history. In addition, Dame has yet to win a championship.
