The Portland Trailblazers took a heartbreaking loss on Saturday and Damian Lillard can’t be feeling good about it.
With eighteen seconds left in the game and down one point Lillard had the opportunity to either tie the game or put the Blazers up by two while at the free-throw line. Unfortunately for the Blazers, Lillard ended up missing both free throws.

After Lillard missed his second free throw, Clippers’ guard Pat Beverley, who didn’t play in the game, trolled Dame by yelling ‘It’s Dame Time’ on the sideline.

Lillard immediately fired back at Beverley after the game.

"To me, that just shows what they expect from me…He remembers it firsthand from when I was a second-year player and he was in Houston."— Cassidy Hubbarth (@CassidyHubbarth) August 8, 2020
