Fans sometimes think they can say whatever they want to athletes and they either won’t notice or won’t bother replying. Well Damian Lillard doesn’t seem to think like that and he reads his tweets. A young fan learned the hard way don’t come at Dame with criticism if you aren’t free from it yourself. This kid thought he could point out something about Lillard’s game, so in turn he went ahead and pointed something out about the Kid! LOL!!

Sometimes it takes one brave person to inspire many more and that is what Derrick Rose did.

Latest to support the cause, Damian Lillard joins other NBA stars in voicing his opinion and supporting the cause.
NBA: Damian Lillard Apologizes To LeBron James for Old Tweets

It’s also the year LeBron and the Heat lost to the Dallas Mavericks in the NBA Finals. Lillard’s tweets went from being a big fan of LeBron’s to being very critical of him when he lost, even calling James a “p*ssy”. Lillard called James shortly after the tweets reappeared and the two of them hashed things out.
