I’ve been waiting for this interview! This is gold! This is why pdx loves dame and et. I really do feel same gonna win a ring for us. And I really hope he takes his family to the Oregon coast. Much love and respect from the Chhay family.
My dad is a 48 year season ticket holder. Dame is the greatest thing that has ever happened to this city. Hes changed everything. Dame is the Portland goat by miles.
@@ridhowiranatakusumah6176 the second Clyde left Portland he never looked back. Let me know when you see him at any Trail Blazers game or Rip City event let alone in the city of Portland itself. I can count the number of times on one hand my the times I’ve seen him in person in the last 20 years. He got his championship but never show Portland any love once that happened. Congrats to to him. Bill at least brought us a ship and is regular in visitor, met him many times, a real representative.
Dame is NOT greatest thing that happened for the city of Portland and he's NOT the greatest player to dawn a blazer uniform. Dude is overrated and full of himself.
All of us Portland Trail Blazer fans are so fortunate to have a player like Dame to represent the organization and the community - as real as it gets and as much talent as anyone could ever hope to witness night in and night out.
I’m happy for you guys because living in the suns state and the West it’s easy to forget the hidden gems around the league. I don’t want him to leave y’all but I also want to see him with Jah/Jimmy butler
Dame’s self assurance is something to envy. He is exactly the type of role model anyone should look up to. Makes me believe him 110% that he is going to to what he says he’s going to do all without sounding arrogant. Lot of people gonna be backtracking when he actually does it.
@@djdjvega101 Twitter is a cesspool for that. Those aren't real fans, just people who wanna be negative. The fanbase here in Oregon and then abroad has massive support for him and the franchise.
@@gregbors8364 think what that he’s unhappy? Lol And you calling me a casual based off a UA-cam comment is not offensive. 😂 You’re just a OFFENDED because you’re probably a delusional blazers fan. You think dame is happy they traded Josh hart for a player who won’t make the rotation? You think Dame is happy once being in the WCF, now being outside the play in? No so once you actually do research and think logically then come talk to me about casual. You clearly don’t know ball.
Dame seems so happy and content in Portland. His life is there, his home is there, his kids are growing up there. Obviously he wants to win a ring, but it’s the media that cant stand him staying loyal to the franchise thats given him generational wealth.
It’s amazing. Even though Portland is a smaller market you’d think star players would love to play along side players like Dame. Dame’s doesn’t come around too often.
Even this .. Dame could go on any major podcast, show or interview but chooses to hop on his former teammates and friends pod which in return will help him get them views and side hustle up. This dude is the epitome of loyalty.
Evan Turner sound like Yatchy this is my first time hearing him speak lol. Shit kinda blowing me😭😂. Evan if you see this comment sing “I took the woooooock to Poland”
I’ll never forget dame. And I will never discredit what he did. And what he has left to do. I believe he brings a championship to Portland soon! Real dawg ! Loyal! Respect! Blessing to watch him hoop for the blazers.
Dame is hilarious. I did the same thing he did when I would play March madness. I would create a player and take a little school and win the tournament. I never understood why this doesn’t happen today. But with a bigger school there are more eyes on you cuz even the 6th man can make the league because of the national attention.
I am praying you do win a championship in Portland! Die hard portland fan here and I see this team doing big things next year! Probably not a chip but maybe a deep playoff run
Always got love for Dame man. Bay Area legend here. Dc if bro dont leave and never wins. He staying loyal and real, not folding to the media and shit. Thats how we do it here in the Bay, especially Oakland.
We are so lucky to have Dame here in Portland. Couldn’t ask for a better person or player. I get excited to watch every game. I hope you can prove everyone wrong Dame. I’ll never stop believing in you. Good to see ET again. Thanks for the interview.
Man, so cool seeing these two sit down and talk shop. I miss ET, these are two of the real ones. Also, I am HERE for Dame’s shit-talking if Portland wins a chip.
i'm a gsw fan, born and raised in oakland, but there's two current players i really want to win a chip. Dame and D. Rose. i don't care when and how they get it, i just want them to experience it!
It easy to be miss understood when you dance to your own music. Not seeking validation. Not giving people opinions power to determine your greatness. Knowing what important to you. Always realize you could not have been here. Some people are satisfied with their piece of the pie and never comparing to determine his value. If you clear your mind, you will realize the media can create any narrative they chose during your career and after. However, if you did it your way. You will be at peace and realize the NBA is like a marketing firm. They can build you up, say whose the greatest, tear you down, and extend your after basketball career. Some people have their own LANE.
I think more people respect Dame more than he thinks, the fact that he could have sought a super team, but instead remained out of loyalty and competition decided to chase a championship as a bus driver opposed to hopping on someone elses. This speaks to his competitive nature, his leadership of not abandoning his guys and the commitment to being the best player in franchise history. Many players have rings, not too many guys are the 1st guy mentioned when talking who were the best players ever on ______ team.
Man when I watch this it’s a great interview and I’m a big Dame fan but also a big Evan Turner guy! One of the most underrated underused players of all I time! Every time he got the mins he produced at a high level he just didn’t get the mins after he left Philly. I’ll truly never understand why.... I know he had some injuries and all but damn I feel he shudda got more mins on Portland! I always thought after his 2013/14 season he proved he was good enuf to be a 30+ Mins a night starter! Guess his coaches didn’t see it that way....
Dame really mentioned a golden moment in simulated sports games. I played March madness the exact same way. Back when you could upload your college player into the NBA after the national championship
Damn I want this dude to get a trophy. Jody, pay for another star, or sell the team to Phil Knight who will. All Dame needs is another proven star, with a solid supporting cast
I will always respect Dame coz for me he is built to play on another era, with players staying on one team. It's just sad that in today's basketball, a lot people will remember him as "he has no rings" but people like me who understand how big loyalty to a franchise meant will always see him as one of the best. And like I always say, he's built for another era of basketball legends. And I always consider that as the higher level of basketball. ⌚🙌
I really enjoyed your interview. I learned. So much from this interview about you and about your histories good going young man good job young man and keep doing what you doing. You are one of the chosen ones also. Much respect for you.
Dame is the face off the franchise, and my fav player, I love how he still tryna win w the Blazers that is my fav team, but man if in that extension he had a paycut like Dirk did to help bring someone to make the team better instead of getting that 60mil per year, it would have helped a lot man...
This man beat the odds over and over and over again. 2 star recruit overloooked, not a power division one school, made it out of oakland. Made a LEGACY for himself in the NBA not just a name. He wasnt top 100/75/20 in high school recruit. Not a mcdonalds all american not a none of that. he just KEPT working and KEPT getting better and is STILL getting better. His drive to stay in portland ties to his come up hard against the odds mentality. When no one else believe in me watch what I can do mentality. Nothing was given to him often overlooked. He has the same mentality even as a superstar top 75 player ever. Not much complacency in him. He passed up MANY people who was the next ones up cause he's relentless. No knock to guys ranked ahead of him that he passed they all elite hoopers the top 0.00001% its jus Dame never let up truly. Pain makes monsters sometimes 😈🏀🏀💯💯
I’m a kings fan and if I see dame content, I stop and listen. One of my all time favorite players. I’m more mad about the kings not drafting dame over all the super stars they have missed on including steph and luka Nor cal boy!
The definition of a true pro. I can't understand why Portland hasn't really built around Dame. Or why another star hasn't signed in free agency. His front office is really letting him down
Even if Dame never wins a ring, he will still be the people's champ. Dude came from Weber St and look where he's at now. He will be a HoFer when it's all said and done.
There are a few current players that don't do a ton of interviews that you absolutely must listen to when they do...Lillard, Curry and Steven Adams come to mind.
This dead ass my first time hearing Evan turners voice and I was listening to this for a few minutes without lookin at the screen thinkin that Dame got interviewed my Lil Yachty💀😂. All love tho
IM ROOTING FOR DAME DOLLA AND TELL ME DIFFERENT, BUT IF DAME WINS A RING AND I HOPE GOD OPENS THAT DOOR FOR HIM IT WILL COUNT AS ONE OF THE TOUGHEST RINGS EVER WON BY A PLAYER AND WILL HOLD MORE VALUE THAN PLAYERS WITH 2 OR MORE TRUE NBA FANS WILL UNDERSTAND Especially if he does it in PORTLAND 💯
Appreciate the interview ET
The realest in the game
It was a honor to see you Hoop Live in the Rose 🌹 Garden Portland Legend FoSho
I’ve been waiting for this interview! This is gold! This is why pdx loves dame and et. I really do feel same gonna win a ring for us. And I really hope he takes his family to the Oregon coast. Much love and respect from the Chhay family.
🐐
They traded for Kevin Knox and Cam Reddish, seems like trying to tank. The Blazers org is doing you wrong
My dad is a 48 year season ticket holder. Dame is the greatest thing that has ever happened to this city. Hes changed everything. Dame is the Portland goat by miles.
Never forget Clyde

So true

Dame is such a stand up dude. I hope I get to meet him one day.
Dame too real man, what a blessing to have a dude like that leading a small market franchise
Tons of respect to Dame.
.
So crazy that a couple days later he scores 71 points. Give Dame his flowers man. Future Hall of Famer.
Dame’s self assurance is something to envy. He is exactly the type of role model anyone should look up to. Makes me believe him 110% that he is going to to what he says he’s going to do all without sounding arrogant. Lot of people gonna be backtracking when he actually does it.
🔥🔥🔥 we’ve been needing a new Dame interview! He’s always genuine and dropping gems! Shout out to y’all for making it happen!
You can really see that dame is content with what he has. Its the media who cant accept that he is happy with his situation. Championship or not.
@@djdjvega101 Twitter is a cesspool for that. Those aren't real fans, just people who wanna be negative. The fanbase here in Oregon and then abroad has massive support for him and the franchise.
Just wish he gets significant help to make a run at a championship
He’s not happy not being a contender
He said that prior to the season
And nothing this season reflects them being a contender yet again
@@zj8478 If you really think that, you’re a casual
@@gregbors8364 think what that he’s unhappy? Lol

Evan Turner first off exceptional interview. Dame! Incredible insight on professionalism and discipline that transcends sports.
“A deal you couldn’t turn down.” Truer words never spoken.
Dame seems so happy and content in Portland. His life is there, his home is there, his kids are growing up there. Obviously he wants to win a ring, but it’s the media that cant stand him staying loyal to the franchise thats given him generational wealth.
Any franchise would of gave him that wealth so that don't mean much dame wants to be dirk and kobe so bad and he's not
@@jrjr9348 He just wants to win with the team that drafted him. That simple lol he doesn't want to be them
It’s amazing. Even though Portland is a smaller market you’d think star players would love to play along side players like Dame. Dame’s doesn’t come around too often.
Man, so glad to be in the Rose Garden for Dame's first game. You knew in the moment he was the real deal.
Even this .. Dame could go on any major podcast, show or interview but chooses to hop on his former teammates and friends pod which in return will help him get them views and side hustle up. This dude is the epitome of loyalty.
Dame is the greatest human and top Basketball player together in the NBA it’s not even close ❤❤❤
Him dropping 70 2 days after this vid drops is great!!
He brings so much life and game experience, he could be a great coach some day.
This set with all the throwbacks and what not is fire
Evan Turner sound like Yatchy this is my first time hearing him speak lol. Shit kinda blowing me😭😂. Evan if you see this comment sing “I took the woooooock to Poland”
Man I’ll never forget those 2 years Evan had in Philly! I truly think he never got used correctly and cudda been a 20 ppg/ 7 apg guy on the right team
Dame is the realest in the league
One of the greatest to ever play the game u deserve all the blessings
Dame only opens up like this to people he loves, respects and trusts. I'm glad ET got this opportunity to rap with him like this.
I’ll never forget dame. And I will never discredit what he did. And what he has left to do. I believe he brings a championship to Portland soon! Real dawg ! Loyal! Respect! Blessing to watch him hoop for the blazers.

😂😂😂😂
small schools busted up everybody brackets this yr
Without ET we never make it to the WCF! Mad respect! Always loved ETs vibe and still remember when that dump truck landed in his swimming pool!
Dame my favorite player since AI. Always dope when he's on a podcast
I am praying you do win a championship in Portland! Die hard portland fan here and I see this team doing big things next year! Probably not a chip but maybe a deep playoff run
Dame's 2014 buzzer beater against the rockets made me start watching the nba
Dame is Rawthentic: a beast on the court and can literally out rap (with substance) most of the rappers out now💯
We need help to win a Championship. Thanks for everything you do Dolla and Ev for these podcast. Liked and commenting for the algorithm ✔
Always got love for Dame man. Bay Area legend here. Dc if bro dont leave and never wins. He staying loyal and real, not folding to the media and shit. Thats how we do it here in the Bay, especially Oakland.
God I love Dame
Evan turners voice is a hybrid of lil yachty and squidward🤣
We are so lucky to have Dame here in Portland. Couldn’t ask for a better person or player. I get excited to watch every game. I hope you can prove everyone wrong Dame. I’ll never stop believing in you. Good to see ET again. Thanks for the interview.

Good conversation ET. Oh yea you’re a Solid individual for saving someone life in Portland during a accident
My favorite point guard ever 💯 DAME TIME🍿
This, right here, is my favorite basketball player of all time.
Dame the truth💯💯💯
What a great guy! This was a most interesting interview, I have so much appreciation to what Lillard does and how he does it!
i'm a gsw fan, born and raised in oakland, but there's two current players i really want to win a chip. Dame and D. Rose. i don't care when and how they get it, i just want them to experience it!

Great interview this confirmed dame as my favorite player of all time!! “They better pray I don’t win no championship in Portland” 😂😂😂
I can’t get over Evans voice either so the fact that dame mentions that is hilarious 😂
I don't understand why players won't come to Portland to team up with Dame. Seems like one of the best running mates you'd ever want.

Dame the realest. Shoutout to Chicago and the 312 repine ET does. Appreciate this pod. Love from Humboldt County
Bro dropped 71 2 days after this interview, Dame too smoove 🔥⌚
Crazy
I’m not even a Portland fan but this dude needs a chance to compete at the biggest stage.
Damn I want this dude to get a trophy. Jody, pay for another star, or sell the team to Phil Knight who will. All Dame needs is another proven star, with a solid supporting cast

Dame definately deserves a ring... One of my fav players to watch
Dame is one of the few real ones left in the game
Dame’s prospective is super refreshing. When did the opinion of fans/media who could only dream of doing what Professionals do count for anything
Dame the 🐐! As a man and a hooper. Give this man his flowers he a real one 💯
Great interview and great questions!!
Yoooo I did not see this coming! Hell yea🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Video 🔥🔥im buggin or ET sound like lil boat😭🧐
Nah you’re not trippin they have identical voices. I’ve thought this since the first time I heard boat talk
definitely sounds like lil boat 😭😭😭😭
Best leader in the NBA!!!
Dude wins at life. He's right, his contested makes are crazy. Best leader in pro sports today.. droppin Dimes droppin Dimes!
Great interview

New to the channel great interview big fan of Dame on the court in the booth and speaking his truth
Appreciate you brothers for this great content

That Shawn Kemp jersey 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Damian Lillard definitely one of my favorite players
Gotta respect ✊🏽 Dame!
Damn those old school jerseys in the back. The VC one is coooooold!
Go dame win MVP 👍 you need it because haters gonna hate prove them all
The definition of a true pro. I can't understand why Portland hasn't really built around Dame. Or why another star hasn't signed in free agency. His front office is really letting him down
Amazing interview. Dame is goated 💯 Not only an amazing basketball player, but even a more amazing human being 🙏🏼💯 #RoleModel
This man has a beautiful family and he gets to compete with the best players in the world. That's what's really important.
Dame so Bay Area man.
Same: bruh they better pray ion win no championship
I felt that from the bottom of mi heart 😭
Even if Dame never wins a ring, he will still be the people's champ. Dude came from Weber St and look where he's at now. He will be a HoFer when it's all said and done.
It’s crazy he just dropped 71 yesterday
There are a few current players that don't do a ton of interviews that you absolutely must listen to when they do...Lillard, Curry and Steven Adams come to mind.
watching this after the 71 piece makes it even better
What a legend
Evan Turner sound like a marvel movie character
It’s hard to listen to with his voice Ngl but all love ET
Dame dolla, miss you in PDX ET
I really want to see Jah Morant and Daim they’d be so bad together because of the respect they demand in how they carry themselves
This dead ass my first time hearing Evan turners voice and I was listening to this for a few minutes without lookin at the screen thinkin that Dame got interviewed my Lil Yachty💀😂. All love tho
Love dame. Keep bangin my bro.❤💯👊🏾
