DAMIAN LILLARD AND LEBRON JAMES
Damian Lillard still thinks that no one can touch LeBron James in the NBA.
In a new interview with Joe Budden, the Trail Blazers star said he believes that LeBron is still the best player currently suiting up in the entire league. Even with James going into his 17th season and Los Angeles missing the playoffs last year, Lillard didn't pause at all when asked to name the league's best player.
"I think LeBron is," he said. "The is freaking unbelievable. Trust Me when I tell you that."
