When Damian Lillard surpassed Clyde Drexler as the leading scorer Portland Trail Blazers history last week, Portland feted Lillard accordingly. Blazers broadcasts, media personalities, fans, teammates, and fellow NBA players all praised Lillard’s prowess and commitment.
In comparison, Drexler’s voice was muted. He didn’t issue any statements on social media. His son, Adam, claimed that Drexler called Lillard to congratulate him, but that was it.
This has led to a bit of rumbling around Blazers Nation, providing the subject for this Blazer’s Edge Mailbag.
Dave,
It is just me, or has Clyde been conspicuously absent from comment on Dame passing his record?
