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.

      Probably could have given a better argument then that Jermey Lin won a chip in 2019 nobody cared about his ass by then

    Neither dude is winning one this year so your point is irrelevant.

    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

    They have no pressure, they cooked , no one expect them to make a difference anymore. I would put way more pressure on Luka or Ant.

      Not Ant, his team has not sniffed anything yet.

      Luka though would be expected to be back in the Finals to get their arses kicked by the Celtics again.

      But they have to go through some competition

        Ant just went to WCF and like to open his mouth. He got to back it up. Luka is now in top dog territory , better make good use of Klay Thompson now. Also Wemby better reach the playoffs if he want to stay in the future goat conversations
