Indiana Pacers: TJ McConnell’s Big Game 6 Leads To Brutal Damian Lillard Takes

Damian Lillard Flamed by the Internet After Getting Outplayed by Indiana Pacers’ TJ McConnell 

To be fair to Lillard, he probably was still not at his 100 percent form in Game 6 after missing two games with an Achilles issue. He did score 28 points but was just 7/17 from the floor in 35 minutes of action. McConnell, on the other hand, came off the bench and fired 22 points on much more efficient 7/9 shooting from the field with nine assists and a plus/minus of +22 in just 23 minutes.

“DAMIAN LILLARD WENT FROM CURRY TALKS TO GETTING OUTPLAYED BY MCCONNELL IN AN ELIMINATION GAME,” said X user @30problemz.

“McConnell totally outplaying  Lillard is the most beautiful thing i’ve seen so far,” shared @WhiteboyJimmer.

“I never thought I’d see the day that Dame Lillard is being cooked by McConnell. #NBAonTNT,”
@Babyblack1977 pointed out.

“Lillard is a bagless FT merchant getting outscored by McConnell playing ethical hoops,” stated @WandasAbed.

From @GobertWRLD: “Congratulations to McConnell on the birth of his new son!!! Sources report that his name will be Damian Lillard-McConnell .”

Via DxmnYellow: “Lillard ran from the grind just to get torched 1st round by TJ McConnell….”

“TJ McConnell is completely outplaying Dame Lillard in an elimination game, Heat dodged a massive bullet,” said @DosMinutos, who referenced the Miami Heat’s flirtation with the idea of trading for Lillard back in the last summer.
