Which player has more pressure to win a championship this year: Paul George or Damian Lillard?
Both guys have had similar playoff success until this point and have similarly talented teams. Both are also on the older side and don’t have many more chances to win it all.
Both have equal pressure? Im not sure how to weigh them
On one hand we have Lillard, who left Portland despite being the ‘loyal guy’ to the franchise to in a sense ring chase in a better situation and environment in Milwaukee, one of the best guards in the league in his prime. Now in Milwaukee he can sit back as the second option, after years of being the first option in Portland. Dame Time after all
Other hand is PG, who had amazing seasons, albeit without a ring, and constantly injury-riddled. Went to LA to chase a ring with Kawhi, didnt get much done in LA, now in Philly with a surprisingly good team. As the third option, his load will be lesser too
Both have the pressure after illustrious careers, but im not sure who has the most pressure, but if i had to choose probably Dame
PG led the Clippers to their conference finals in franchise history, I wouldn’t say that’s nothing
