Damian Lillard's game-winning shot for Blazers had sports world going crazy

Share

Damian Lillard is that dude. 

Lillard hit the one of the most cold-blooded shots in NBA playoff history Tuesday night in Portland, a 37-foot 3-pointer in Paul George's face at the buzzer to beat the Thunder 118-115 and send the Blazers to the Western Conference Semifinals. 

The shot had everyone in the NBA talking on social media. The fourth quarter is Lillard time, and he proved that once again in the most clutch of ways. 

But there's always salt on a fresh wound. George called the game-winner a "bad shot" after the Thunder's loss. Well, Lillard begs to differ.

And of course there's a Curry spin in here. As Lillard was setting up for his shot, Warriors' star Steph Curry's brother, Blazers guard Seth Curry, was getting ready to say bye to OKC. 

A Curry saying bye to the Thunder in the playoffs? Oh, the tradition continues.
