No one was indifferent to Damian Lillard’s exhibition last night in the fifth game of the first-round playoff tie between the Denver Nuggets and the Portland Trail Blazers. The Oregon star scored 55 points and hit 12 3-pointers, although he could not avoid a 147-140 loss of his own after two overtimes that he forced himself with a pair of stratospheric 3-pointers.

The exhibit left their own and strangers speechless, to his teammates and rivals, to fellow professionals and even to the most experienced journalists in the NBA. The ‘Dame Time’ is the never seen, a real player who makes the impossible possible on a basketball court.
