Growing up, everyone knew the term "Miller Time". Somewhat for the beer, but for basketball fans, mainly for the way former Indian Pacer All-Star Reggie Miller took over games in the closing minutes. The lean sniper was quite arguably the most clutch player of his time and discussions were going around if he was the most of all-time.
Fast forward some years and now we've got a young player just beginning to step into those clutch discussions. Damian Lillard, the reigning Rookie of the Year, participant of five All-Star Game activities, go-to guy for the Portland Trail Blazers and adidas Basketball global endorser, has been making a name of himself with his endgame heroics.
When he's on the court and the game's on the line, everyone knows it's "Lillard Time" now. Or in these social media-driven days, it's #LillardTime.
SLAM Magazine featured Lillard on the cover of their latest issue. This post below features the article which is a good read for fans of Dame. It reveals his in-game ritual to prepare for the big shots, more examples of his already popular work ethic and drive and a look at what he does off the court.
